ditto, banana flavor is great, but I’d like to see a bit more sweetness beyond the current hint suggested by the banana<br />

Aug 23, 2007 Best beer of the night. Which means I didn’t have to chew my own vomit to finish it.
It actually wasn’t as bad as I’m amiking it sound.
It was below average at best. Look like a hefe should, dont they all? The flavor was certainly bland, but had a lot of bananas and a fiar amount of vanilla. Mouthfeel was a bit creamy.

Oct 7, 2005 On tap at the brewpub. This one has 4.5% abv according to the bartender. very yeasty. good lace on side of glass. pale daisy hazy yellow. very much scent of banana and clove. I felt the banana and clove flavors were overpowering because they were not backed with a good palate and body. if the other two parts had been there, it could have handled the strong (overpowering in this case) flavor.
