Sep 11, 2009 Hazed dark gold, creamy white head. Soft yeasty bubblegum and clove notes ride faint swirls of honeyed banana throughout. Dry fruity wheat-like flavors round with a touch of spice. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, dry finish. An ok summer quencher, but just not feeling the love…

Sep 7, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pours a cloudy orange color, small white head. Aroma is malt, lemon, banana, yeast. Flavor is a touch of spices, a touch of citrus, and malts. It was a bit sweeter than I had imagined, but it wasn’t bad.

Estery sweet but crisp malt aroma with lemon and herbs. Hazy dark yellow under wispy white. Crisp and refreshing wheat and base malt flavour with a touch of grainy sourness from the wheat. Notes of coriander and lemon. Extremely quaffable. Crisp and clean finish, light body but not watery.

Aug 28, 2009 12 oz. bottle from Grape & Gourmet. Pours a cloudy yellowish-orange with virtually no head. Aroma of bubblegum, honey, and banana. Sweet bubblegum flavor with some cloves. A little too sweet to be great (which I blame on the honey) but still a good drinkable beer.

8/24/2009: Terrapin Sunray Wheat Beer... Aroma: Slightly sour wheat malt with light yeast and clove, a hint of lemon, and a dollup of honey. Appearance: Bright pale yellow, cloudy; not really much on the top surface except a thin veil; large, erratic carbonation bubbles the shoot to the surface. Flavor: Honey sweetness, even a bit syrupy-like; chewy wheat, a hint of banana, delicate honey honey undertones.. Palate: Medium-light body, mostly smooth, a little tingly carbonation. Overall: Very drinkable, but a tad sweet; quite filling for a wheat beer.
12 fl. oz. bottle (Best if enjoyed by: Month 11, Week 1) from D’s SixPax & Dogz in Pittsburgh, PA. Rating #85 for this beer.
