2006 version, draught at the brewpub (back-logged notes!). Nice flavors of Bamberger Rauch malt, though not a huge amount of smoking. Mostly flavors of wheat and caramel malt. Banana light, nice chocolate, decent smoke as well. Fantastic stuff. Like an Aventus mixed with a Schlenkerla plus a good deal of hops added too. Somewhat shocking. Fantastic.

UPDATED: DEC 18, 2004 Draught in the brewpub
Aroma is very fruity, cherry aroma with light banana and roasted malt notes. Very cloudy, black-red colour, light brown head. Flavour is full of banana and cherry notes. Very fruity with light sourness. Aftertaste has light bitter notes of roasted malt and a dry finish. A fine beer!
