Poured a hazy yellow with a thin white head. Mild notes of citrus on the nose. Thin and flat mouthfeel. Mild spice, banana, lemon, orange, and bread on the tongue. Boring finish. Lots of alcohol, though! Drinkable at best.

Drinkable Belgian derivative, not as multidimensional as the real thing. Loses points for lacking a serious head, gains for hitting the right spice notes, concealing its alcohol well, and having a light, clean, body.

Bottle. Clear yellow pour, no visible yeast or bottle conditioning. Light malty and yeast and spiced nose. Fairly clovey spicy flavors, and some yeasty qualities and some lighter banana fruitiness. No funk. Clean finish, and very drinkable.

[bottle - 12 oz] Clear yellow pour with not much of a head. Fruity aroma with hints of malt, grapes, spices and some yeast. The flavor is very spicy. It begins with a mouthful of coriander and cloves and goes to a malty middle and a slightly chewy and earthy finish. The aftertaste is slightly bitter with some more sweet and fruity notes.

Nose is yeasty, bananna, corriander, light grapes, light dusty malt. Crystal clear gold body, large frothy white head that fades quickly. Corriander dominates w. yeasty bubblegum. Quite earthy with bananna, strawberries. Not too shabby.

Pale yellow with cloudy body and thin dissipating white head. Light aroma of spice, lemon, maybe bubble gum? Yeasty spice corriander flavor with refreshing palate and clean finish.

Small white head thats short lived with a miniscule amount of spotty lacing. Clear pale gold color. A rather uninviting looking brew. Gently fruity nose, bananna dominates, hints of citrus and lightly yeasty. Body is light, thin, palate is lightly creamy. Sweet malts and spices are a bit much. Coriander is overdone. Age it? Not me! Finish is sweet.

Thanks to weeare138. Pours a light hazy yellow with little to no head, some yeast floaties. Aroma is lemon, spices, yeast and wheat. Taste is smooth and a little dry at the end. Lemon in there as well.
