Oct 16, 2008 Bottle. Aroma of bread, orange peel and spice. Tastes of bread, banana, vanilla and finishes with a clove spicyness. I really enjoyed this one.

Oct 8, 2008 Bottle thanks to BMan1113VR via captaincougar. Pours a cloudy golden color with a massive head that I can only describe as "foam, if foam were a popcorn ball." Nose: Lemon, grass, clove, vanilla extract. Taste: subdued hops IMO, booze, banana pudding, orange and other such citrus. Mouthfeel: Silky yet creamy. Not as crisp as most hefes but his beer is pretty dang delicious.

Oct 7, 2008 Bottle thanks to captaincougar. Didn’t realize the alcohol. Interesting brew. Pours with a large foamy, off-white head and a hazy golden body with very good lacing. Aroma of bananas, alcohol and a lot of citrus hops. Smells like it already has a lemon slice dropped in it. Also some banana and clove deep in the background. Taste is bananas, lemon, orange, clove and vanilla with citrus hops dominating all other flavors. Creamy mouthfeel with light bubbles. Alcohol comes through quite a bit. Really follows the mantra of this experimental series.

Oct 6, 2008 Bottle thanks to valpoaj. Thanks! Pours cloudy golden with fluffy white head. Aroma is pure citrus. Flavor is sweet - but ends on a dry note and is fruity with some clove in there. Only an idiot would add a lemon to this stuff. New Glarus makes me want to explore German beers more.

Sep 19, 2008 Pour is hazed orangey golden with a thin sticky off white head...smell is immediately strongly citricly hoppy with some vanilla and banana and clove as it warms...taste is sweet at first, turning nicely spiced with clove and cinnamon for sure...then a light grapefruit bitterness in the finish....this is the only hefe that I think I might actually put a lemon in...I wonder what that’d be like...

Sep 19, 2008 Thanks to bitbucket tasting. Dark blonde. Really fantastic mix of yeast, fruitiness, sweetness and pretty big citrus hops. Fantastic stuff.

Sep 15, 2008 Pours liquid gold...just as thick and radiant. Nose is semi-sweet; banana, citrus, clove, wheat, and yeast. Flavor is bold...and dominated by clove, citrus, and banana. The 9.6% ABV is truly invisible. Not my favorite style but I can appreciate the brew. New Glarus...great brewery!!! hillfiiiiire, ketchepillar, & crowderm...THANKS AGAIN!!!

Sep 13, 2008 The beer pours a thick white head with a nice ring that coast the sides of the glass. It has a cloudy orange yellow color. The nose is of sweet light fruits and citrus hops. The initial flavor is nice and bitter with hops just popping in your mouth. Overall it like how is nicely carbonated and contains the right amount of hops and malt.
