Sep 22, 2009 Pours golden with plenty of white head. Fruity notes are present as soon as it’s poured. Some banana, and apple and lemon. Full creamy palate. Flavor is banana and some yeast. This is a very good one.

Sep 21, 2009 12 oz bottle acquired via trade. Poured out a hazy yellow with a gigantic cap of white foam. Seriously, my initial pour was pretty much only foam. Aroma was clove, banana, pepper, and citrus fruits. Flavor was much the same, up front it was all the things you’d expect from a German hef and behind that there was a nice citrus hop kick. Very interesting take on the style, and I would enjoy having another of these someday.

Sep 20, 2009 Found this a bit of a head-scratcher - APA meets hefe. It’s certainly drinkable but if it didn’t exist I wouldn’t bother inventing it. Summer fruits dominate - peach, apricot and hefe banana with some clove spice in the finish. Bit soapy and indistinct in the mid-palate. Refreshing but a bit of a novelty IMO. Much preferred their Dancing Man. (Bottle courtesy of Oslo - thanks buddy - at the Milson Point park session September 09)

Sep 14, 2009 Pours a cloudy golden orange with a large soapy white head. A mix of small and large bubbles rush rapidly to the surface. Lots of clove and yeast on the nose. Also, some banana, light floral hops and some sort of candy or fruit. Thick flavor of banana, clove, spice, some hops citrus, and bubblegum. Nice crisp, clean lightly bitter finish. Creamy mouthfeel. with some abundant carbonation. Very nice.
