UPDATED: NOV 21, 2008 On tap @ The Bier Markt: in namesake chalice. Cloudy amber with rocky head. Notes of banana, pepper, yeast and herbal hops. Taste has a fruity profile with undertones of dough. Dry. Sturdy and complex.

straw colored pour with a sudsey head ...cloudy ... smells like beer ... lightly spiced ... high carbonation with a nice light texture ... lightly spiced .... I like this .. very easy drinking ... not overly complex

UPDATED: MAR 5, 2008 Pours beautifully in the proper glass. Aroma is moderatley malty, warm and inviting. A nice candied pineapple flavor and pronounced carbonation combine for a very refreshing mouthfeel. Slightly yeasty finish, but not overpowering.

Pours a clear golden yellow with definite white head. Aroma is very sweet of yeast and fruit. Flavor is definite yeast with notes of fruit (banana) and definite spice. Body is light but carbonated.

Much better than anticipated. Just fruity enough for my taste. Wish it was easier for me to get.

Nice beer, bottle 33CL. BOught by the bierkoning. Nice aroma very sweet. Flavor is fruity, all bud all nice beer.

Bottle. Pours light cloudy orange with a white head. Aroma is very sweet and fruity with notes of orange and banana and maybe even honey. Thin/medium body. Flavor is fruity with a hint of spice. Orange, nutmeg and honey sweetness. A decent beer but not that great.

Poured a hazy gold with a huge chunky head. Aroma was lots of yeast and fruit, with some slightly bitter tones. Flavor is more of the same, yeast and banana. Grapefruit is present, but sweeter than expected. Definately above average.
