Sep 16, 2008 12 oz. bottle in trade from Douglas88- thank you! Served in tumbler- poured slightly cloudy light wheat straw color, high-medium carbonation of lively bubbles, aroma of yeast, bananas, and wheat. Hits the mouth with a high-weak body, very watery feel overall, finish has a nice bite of allspice.

Aug 6, 2008 12oz bottle acquired in trade with douglas88 (thanks!). Poured a lighter and slightly hazy straw color with an averaged sized white head. Aromas of coriander, citrus (orange peels), wheat, and bananas (that came out stronger as I drank more). Tastes of wheat, citrus, and light spices. Thin and watery body.

Jul 28, 2008 Had this one on draught at the brewpub in Salt Lake City, Utah. Cloudy, light yellow pour with a foamy white head, a mild citrusy nose, very plain, lime and grapefruit and not much else. Pretty meh.

Mar 6, 2008 Bottle courtesy of douglas88. Pours a nice copper color with a white thin but semi-retained head. Smells of bananas, fruit, roses, some sugar, molasses, hints of earth and spices. Tastes of cherries, tea, caramel, lots of spice, hay, straw. Mouthfeel is a little watery. Finish is semi-dry with some earthy touches. This is an enjoyable session ale.

Feb 25, 2008 12 oz. bottle courtesy of a trade with douglas88. Pours a cloudy, dull, pale yellow gold with a thin white head that disappeared before the first sip. Lots of fat carbonation bubbles are clinging to the glass. Strong aroma of wheat along with some sour notes and a bit of lemon. Flavor is wheat with a bit of lemon and a slight metallic off-flavor as well. I think this bottle is a bit past its prime. This example was so so.
