Great pour of golden cloudiness, small head, but still a good looking beer. The aroma has hints of banana, which is present in its flavor and more so in the after taste. Overall awesome beer, i will be drinking much more of this one. lemasney (398), Trenton, New Jersey, USA

| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jan 29, 2007 This one wowed me, and is the greatest hefe/wheat ale I have yet quaffed, bar none. The pour is hazy orangy wheat color, with a fluffy 2-finger whitish head. The aroma is huge citrus, spicy, floral. I noted the tropical/citrus fruit Holy Trinity of tangerine, pineapple, and mango in the aroma and flavor, plus a generous cracked black pepper component. The repour provided more yeast and other flotsam goodies, and added more citrus and floral spicy notes to an otherwise already extremely complex and well balanced brew, sort of a hybrid of an IIPA, hefe, and saison. This one is awesome, and so good that I’m going to try to chase a case down. Odeed (1679), Bakersfield, California, USA

I loved this beer; looks like I am in the minority! jblendy (518), Midland Park, New Jersey, USA
| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 19/20 | May 28, 2009 Updated: Jun 20, 2009Pours hazy golden with a small fluffy white head. Beautifully strong aroma, with lots of cherry and banana present, not to mention candied lemon peel, clove, yeast, and just a hint of strawberry. Flavor is just as fruity as the aroma with lots of sweetened lemon peel, some banana, and a slight berry tartness. Plenty of yeast and spice as well as some pleasantly warming alcohol. Palate is full, spicy, zesty, warming, refreshing, and effervescent. Best wheat ale I’ve had to date. Eyedrinkale (3209), Astoria, New York, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jul 31, 2007 Draft. This is what I love about Southern Tier. They take a classic style and turn it absolutely upside down. A great looking beer with a big banana and clove nose. The big hops balance it out nicely making this a real mans lawn mower beer. Fuck the German Hefe’s, this shit is awesome. EricE (467), Fairfax, Virginia, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Apr 2, 2008 Hazy pale yellow pour. Very fruity aroma. Apples and berries with some yeast and malt. Nice fruity taste to go with it. Very dry with berries, grape, citrus, and bananas. Malty aftertaste with a bit of malt. Very delicious!
