| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 14, 2009 Sampled on draft at the brewery. Pours a hazy orange color with a medium head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma is very fruity and citrus with some bready notes. Taste is citrus and other fruit notes, bread and spice. A bit chalky. Medium bodied. Straightforward hefe but pleasant and well made. bubbleflubber (900), Collinsville, Virginia, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 6, 2009 On draught at the High Country Beer Fest, this pours murky brown with a wispy head that leaves light lace. The nose is of distinct banana and cloves. Lots of refreshing banana in the flavor, complimented by a spiced finish. The carbonation is zesty, and makes for a cleansing palate, albeit a touch thin for the style. Speaking of style, although currently categorized as a wheat ale, trust me that this is the pure definition of a German Hefeweizen. It is refreshing and perfect for summer. Nice job! argo0 (7006), Washington DC, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 18, 2009 Updated: Jun 23, 2009Draft at Buffalo Wild Wings in F-ville. A classic, well-made hefe leaning towards citrus more than banana. Really cloudy yellow/orange color with a tall white head. Bold aroma of bananas and doughy yeasty. Crisper carbonation than some hefes leaves the mouth feeling clean and refreshed. The flavors aren’t particularly strong, just well balanced citrus and spice making this a great session beer. The finish is a touch tart. durhambeer (1229), Durham, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 7, 2009 I have to admit, I really don’t like the marketing materials (labels, etc.) from this new brewery and was dubious. Low expectations. SURPRISE! Tasty beer! Strong apple flavors, some banana and clove. Nice yeast. Dry, crisp finish. I will likely drink more of this local treat over the summer. brewski519 (433), Morrisville, North Carolina, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | May 3, 2009 At World Beer Festival in Raleigh NC this Wheat Ale poured more like a white ale - very cloudy whiteish color with a white head. Aroma of banana, biscuit and spice. Taste of faint banana (cross between an American Hefe and German Hefe) and spice... bready after taste. Decent refreshing brew. Would like to try this one again to see how much I enjoy in a little bit larger quantity.
