hopdog (4525), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Feb 21, 2007 On tap. Poured a medium to deeper and cloudy amber color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of bananas, light bubble gum, cloves and a trace of wheat. Tastes of bananas, cloves, cramel, and wheat. acrdz (4248), Pennsylvania, USA Nov 30, 2007 Draft pint at Appalachain in Harrisburg. Poured from the tap a very cloudy (muddy) brown with little to no head. Heavy on the candied banana, sharp alcohol, sharply astringent malts and soggy bread and toast notes up front, with a similar smell. The body on this completely falls apart over the middle, and it finishes with more simple candied banana flavors and a strikingly astringent grain husk note. The alcohol is far too apparent for something of this weight, and overall it’s just unappealing in all respects. DocLock (4083), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 15, 2006 Deep coppery turbid pour, with aroma and flavor notes of wheat, banana, clove, and brown sugary malt. Fairly complex, with a fruity, wheaty, smooth finish. Braudog (3463), Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates Jan 12, 2008 Draft at the Gettysburg brewpub. Happy Birthday, honey! Ruddy red with a thin creamy off-white head. Lightly yeasty aroma which is a bit better pronounced in the first sip. Tad tangy with a twinkle of clovey spices and a sweet bready finish. (#3288, 1/11/2008) Dickinsonbeer (2512), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA Dec 27, 2003 Somewhat astringent, fruity, yeast, estery, and sweet. Some wheat is noticeable along with some darker malts. Alcohol towards the end becomes somewhat cloying.
