Dec 27, 2008 355ml bottle from a trade with a non RBer. Very deep russet with thin beige head. Quite a sweet nicely bocky weizen. Does everything you would expect but more with an American character than German. Nice sweetish darkish malts. Quite pleasant. Drank on Xmas Eve in the kitchen chatting. Took about an hour to finish it.

Mar 20, 2008 12oz bottle. Poured a medium to deeper and cloudy brownish color with a huge sized off white head. Aromas of bananas, cloves, wheaty, and I was getting some smoked meat in the background (took me a while to place it). Tastes of bananas, citrus, lighter spices, and some dark fruits.

May 28, 2008 Bottle... Murky, mahogany brew with a small, creamy, white head. Decent retention. Chocolate, overripe banana, clove and Bazooka bubblegum meld to form a spicy, fruity aroma. Full-bodied and creamy with feather-soft carbonation. Sweet, chocolaty and spicy with dark fruits. Mild bitterness... just enough to keep things from cloying up. Finishes like a sweet, ripe banana dipped in chocolate with a mineral undertone. Many thanks to headbanger for sliding this bottle my way!

May 10, 2008 Pours a transparent dark bronze copper with a lightly-lacing light tan head. Aroma of sweet dark caramel and malted wheat with an authentic estery clove and banana character with German yeastiness. Starts fairly full with the right amount of carbonation and malty sweetness with some peppery clove spice and bready yeasty flavor before the slightly drier, crisp finish. Very true to style and enjoyable.
