bottle at the Hop City Grand Opening party on 4/2/09... pours a deep golden with average white head... big honey aromas along with some banana and slight citrus. very pleasant body filled with these light fruit notes and some spice. medium body... solid flavorful finish... this is a solid wheat ale... much better than I was expecting.

Pale yellow, with a thin ring of white foam. Wheay, banana-like aroma. Lots of fruity sweetness in the flavor, too , plau a lot of bubblegum notes. Very tasty and refreshing.

12 ounce bottle - $4.75 at Taco Mac in Kennesaw, Georgia. Best Before the 1st week in the 8th month. Appearance: Pours a well hazed, hay-hued body with a small, white head despite an enthusiastic, eager pour. Smell: Pleasantly scented union of fresh honey, citrus zest, banana pulp, and spices ground up via a mortar and pestle all wrapped up with a lightly-tangy aroma of malted wheat. Taste: Wheat malt seasoned with spices and accompanied by a fair amount of good, wholesome honey sweetness. Tiny pinch of citrus. Squished ripe bananas. The earthy spices and mild hop bitterness to a decent job at tempering the sweetness. Drying, lengthy finish with hints from all of the various flavors riding out into the aftertaste. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Slight, silky creaminess to the mouthfeel. Drinkability: Easy on the alcohol but plenty flavorful. Loads of summertime appeal here. I enjoyed this one and I’m fairly fussy regarding wheat-based beers.

Bottled. Cloudy yellow with a lively white head. Citrus and bready nose. Yeasty and fresh grass with a bit of sweetness, finishes crisp. Very nice

Bottle in trade as a bonus from 7ways. Thanks! Pours a hazy yellowish orange color with a medium lived white head. Smell is lemony, wheaty and yeasty with bubble gum notes. Taste is richly wheaty with a yeasty flavor to a lesser extent and a definite nice lemony tartness as well. Light spice flavor from the yeast. Rich body and nice lightly crisp carbonation. A very nice wheat ale. Fantastic beer for a hot day.

Looks beautiful! Hazy, bright, medium yellow body with a whipped egg white head. Spicy citrus yeasty aroma. Slightly sweet, light banana flavor. Good body. I’d drink this one all summer, I hope they keep it on the shelves.

12oz bottle. Poured a lighter and slightly hazy straw color with a smaller sized white head. Aromas of grains, wheat, some spices, and citrus. Mustiness. Tastes of honey, citrus, lighter spices, and some grains. Body on the thin side. Another beer that would be great on a hot summer day.

12 ounce bottle from Greenlife Grocery in Asheville, NC. Pours a hazy orange yellow with a medium white head. Moderate retention and nice lacing. Aroma is honey, clove, bready malts and banana. Taste is clove, bread, honey, banana. Dry and light on the palate. Medium bodied. Quite a nice beer.
