Bottle. Clearish amber with a nice head. Aroma is wheat, a hint of cream, lots of banana/bubblegum, and a good dose of fresh grain. The flavor is basically the same.

Pours a cloudy dark golden yellowish orange with golden ripe banana hues when held to a light source and a three finger fizzy white head that quickly settles into a lasting cap. Bready yeasty aroma with hints of spicy clove and pepper as well as some ripe banana and subtle citrus peel notes. Slightly tart/funky smelling with a bit of earthy hops. Medium bodied and slightly hop forward with a prominent spicy clove, pepper and lemon zest flavor. Bready yeasty body with hints of ripe banana, sweet citrus fruit, mostly lemon peel with subtle orange/corriander notes. Very earthy tasting with a bit of dry hops that lasts into the dry, bitter and tart finish. There is definitely an earthy sour/tartness going on that balanced out the spiciness and the crisp flavor of the fruit. It adds a bit of complexity but kind of muted he others flavors, keeping it from becoming overly sweet. This tartness makes the beer pretty refreshing even though it is kind of odd and adds to its overall drinkability. An interesting take on the style but not something that you must sample.

It’s unclear, dark golden with a creamy head. The aroma has notes of banana, yeast, wheat and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of banana, yeast, wheat, clove and caramel. It’s quite nice and full-bodied.
