Draft. An unclear dark brown beer with a lazing tan head. The aroma is sweet malty with light notes of wheat and banana. The flavor is sweet with notes of wheat and banana, leading to a dry wheaty finish.

On tap. Pours slightly cloudy medium brown. Good head retention. Yeasty aroma. Palate is dry and dusty. Sampled again about a month later and was much clearer. Banana bread flavors predominate.

On tap at the brewpub. Pours a very dirty light brown cloud of a mess. Similar to the dust cloud that follows Pig Pen around in those Peanuts cartoons. Aroma is nice: bananas and baking bread. The flavors are yeasty banana and cloves. Not as thick in taste as it appears, still a fairly satisfying brew. I’d drink it again.

Pours a cloudy dark amber opaque with a dense, frothy tan head. Aroma of sweet bready German yeast with good wheat and clove notes. Body starts full and yeasty with a mild sweetness and lots of spicy clove and some banana esters toward a drier doughy finish. Good weizenbock, but could use a little more sweetness.

Tap @ Wynkoop: This was so murky and yeasty it was opaque. It looked like brown mustard with a large stiff head that lasted until the beer was gone. The head was thick and slimy. This beer was still fermenting. I think the head was top floc yeast. There were small pockets of clear beer forming between the head and the yeast farm. The aroma was all banana and yeast with a citrusy tartness. The flavor was fruity and had notes of banana. Light spice on the finish. The finish was moderately bitter. Dry with a medium body. I would give the appearance a higher school if this was a school science project.
