Apr 13, 2008 Bottle via swoopjones - thanks! Pours a cloudy dark golden with a big-ass white head. Crazy aroma, sitting somewhere between a hefeweizen, a saison, and a hop-driven IPA - yeast, spices (cloves, coriander), banana, hops, lemon, a slight funkiness. Flavour is just as varied and complex. I tried to wrap my head around it for a bit, but eventually just sat bak and enjoyed it. Fantastic!

Apr 11, 2008 Too peppery, Too spicey. Too wheaty. Just too much hefeweizen going on for my buds. Bananna trie to help come in and save the flavor but everything is just so extreme leaving for a very mediocre experience.

Apr 11, 2008 btl thanks to kingpinipa. Slightly hazed golden/orange pour with alot of off white head and lace. Spicey aroma centers around corriander and then just other spices. Flavor mirrors aroma slight warmth woth a good bitter finish. The spice lingered after the drink was gone. More body than I expected. A very fine complex beer unique to say the least.

Apr 11, 2008 Tasted 4/5/08. 12oz bottle. Hazy with a golden hue. Finger width of white head. Grassy citrus hop aromas. Pineapple note. Nice nose! Rather full bodied with citrus wheat flavors. Big effervescence. Citrus bomb! Sugary with a good burn. Piney and tart. Peachy and slightly vegetal. Crisp and tingling. Good wheat flavor with a nice dry finish. Piney citrus grapefruit flavors. Sweet bready notes. Full rounded palate. Fun drinking.

Bottle: Big banana aroma with moderate bubblegum, citrus, yeast, and light citrus hops. It pours a hazy orange with a small creamy white head. The flavor starts with moderate citrus and banana. It finishes with a moderate citrus hoppiness and light bubblegum. It leaves a pretty big bubblegum aftertaste. Medium bodied with mild and very soft carbonation.
