Jan 25, 2009 Bottle... Murky, caramel-colored lager with an everlasting, frothy, off-white head. Aromas of pear and clove with a little chocolate and some banana. Full-bodied with gentle carbonation. Chocolaty, spicy, fruity flavor. Sweet with just enough bitterness to prevent cloying. Lengthy, lightly sweet, chocolaty finish that eventually dries out.

Apr 14, 2007 Updated: Aug 27, 2007Tap at Barcade. Deep brown and very cloudy brew. Thick creamy head (props to the barkeep on this one... it took him a good five minutes to pour). Great sweet aroma of fruity banana, some clove and a bit of apple on the nose as well. A hint of chocolate as well. The flavour is nice up front, sweet banana, caramel and toasted wheat malt. A bit of spiciness (clove and cinnamon). In the middle there is an unfortunately distracting chemically/metallic note that really detracts from the flavour. The palate is rich and full though with sweet bready malts, toasted wheat and soft caramel throughout. A light acidity on the back. The combination of wheaty acidity and warm malts and spices is really perfect for this time of year when the weather is just thinking about warming up. I suspect a line problem may be the cause of the problems in here and it’s good enough that I’ll give it a re-rate the next time I see it around. Without that, it would be an awesome weizenbock.

May 23, 2007 [Draft @ Capones] Poured a hazy amber color with a medium sized, off white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of light banana, toffee malts, caramel, clove, and light citrus. Taste of peat smoke malt, caramel, nuts, citrus fruits, more banana, with a bit of cardboard, and some alcohol in the finish.

Aug 16, 2007 Draft @ HDG. Other than the too much banana, this stuff is good. Some creamy caramel and chocolate goes nicely with the fresh flavorful hops and a bit of orange peel. Just a bit of spice as well.
