goldtwins (3658), Nesconset, New York, USA Jul 2, 2008 Poured a slightly hazed yellow color with a small white head. The aroma was light with wheaty citrus notes. Light citrus flavor. Light body. emacgee (934), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA Jun 30, 2008 Shared by Durhambeer. Pours a still pale cloudy yellow. Not as hazy as I would have liked. No head. The nose is very strong banana, very wheaty and yeasty. Not really any spicy clove, just banana. The flavor is similar, banana, wheaty, yeasty. The mouthfeel is disconcerting because it lacks the carbonation and full body I would expect from a wheat. durhambeer (290), Durham, North Carolina, USA Jun 30, 2008 Bottle thanks to the neverending love and kindness of pepsican. A regular Mother Teresa, this guy. Golden pour, mostly clear. Nearly flat, which bummed me out. Wheat and bananas are the main notes on the nose. A little sweetness, maybe honey on the nose and palate as well. With good carbonation, I could have enjoyed this beer. lb4lb (1232), Austin, Texas, USA Jun 24, 2008 Bonus bottle from pepsican. Thanks!
Pours a nice golden color with a very small head. Smell is sweet and wheaty with some honey cereal like sweetness and a hint of spice. Taste is wheaty, sweet and cereal like with a medium to thin body and very low carbonation. Basically flat, in fact. Would be decent if not for that. JoeMcPhee (3586), Jackson Heights, New York, USA May 31, 2008 Bottle shared by goldtwins. Deep golden beer with a light orange highlights. Aroma is quite sweet and banana loaded. Quite wheaty and fairly sweet. Some light honeyish character. It’s very thin-bodied though and it comes across a bit medicinal and phenolic. Meh.
