Commercial Description:
Created by Rodney Kibzey, Illinois Rodney describes his wonderfully complex brew as "deep amber in color with a full creamy body and a dark fruit and clove aroma." This traditional Bavarian style brew took Rodney a few batches to perfect, but the taste is worth all of his hard work.

Bottle. Pours a dark red brown with a very thin white head. Aroma is of yeast, fruit and sugar. Tastes similar to how it smells and tastes a bit like a belgian quad.

pours a mahogany with a thin white head. aroma is candy sweetness and fruity-spicey hop. Backed by a sweet malt. Flavour transitions quickly through sweet roasty malt and alc into a yeasty wheat, then tart fruity bitterness.

12 oz. bottle: This one pours a quite opaque darker brown color. There was a bit of a creamy tan head on it that dropped off some what quickly and left a little lacing. There is definitely some, but not overly so, clove to the nose. Malts and fruits in there also, but they have a hard time getting past the clove. The taste is good. There is a somewhat creamy texture to the beer. Just slightly sweet, with clove and other spices dominant. Slightly bitter finish. Nice.

Had this bottle in Gloucester VA. It was a very cloudy, brown and milky beverage, carbonation just a tad too high, but big taste, sweet, spicy, and lingering. Not much head but a really complex beeras touted.

12 oz bottle from Hollingshead Deli; Nose is bananas, cloves, bubblegum, and caramelly sweetness; cloudy brown with a big, glass-lacing, tan head; flavor is fruity, ripe bananas, raisins, and slight sweetness; the finish is slightly sweet with a little alcohol warmth, then slight bitterness.

Pours out a muddy brown color with a small slightly off white head. Interesting fruity aroma. Taste is complex with some nice banana notes, some caramel and maybe some yeast here and there. Solid

Pours a transluscent murky brown/amber colour with a creamy off-white head that fades to a solid cap. The nose is full of banana/clove, fig and dark fruit aromas. The flavour is characterized by the typical banana/clove flavour along with spicy bubblegum yeast, cocoa, dark fruits, bready malts and wheat. There is some earthy caramel sweetness poking through as well, adding to the complexity. It is just bitter enough to keep it from being cloyingly sweet and the finish is nice and long. The booze is well hidden by ample flavour and body. The texture is creamy and medium bodied with low, yet sharp carbonation. It is certainly medium dry as advertized and nice representation of the style.
