Tried at a tasting at Wine World in NA. Not bad but not one I purchased. May need to try again as the competition was tough!

Bottle. Poured a medium white head that lingers for a while. Aroma of fruit and hop. A little cloudy with a darker yellow color. Some sediment. Nice light flavor, Fruity with hop. Not bad.

GreatLibations (1771) - Last Supper, Arizona, USA - AUG 28, 2007
Pours a beautiful creamy golden color w/ a tall, sticky froth. Good head retention and a full, lasting lace. Aroma is thin w/ dusty citrus rind. Medium full nectar w/ soft residual effers. The texture is thick and creamy smooth. Nice! A big malty backone supports flavors of banana and vanilla cream, mild bubble gum and biscuits, lil’ peaches, apples and citrus rind. Theres a very mild hop component that is just barely perceptible. The finish is bittered but only mildly and has a slightly acidic twitch to it. Overall: thick like nectar and full of creamy flavors and textures. Highly recommended.

Sorry, I found this quite bland. Nothing really happening here. Minimal hops, kind of a mediocre beer.

kidmartinek (1757) - austin, Texas, USA - MAY 20, 2008
Pours cloudy, icy golden, small head, good lacing. Sweet wheat, honey, and sugar aroma. Flavor is intense, sweet wheat malt, orange peel, and sugar. Beer is thin but adhesive.. Flavor starts with a good bite. Finish is mildly flavorful like the beer, short, and good.

oteyj (1753) - Washington DC, USA - JUN 10, 2011
Hazy straw pour with a huge white head. The nose holds lots of citrus wheat grain, banana, clove, and herbal florals. The flavor is much the same, with herbs, banana-clove, lemon, and mild doughiness. The palate is light and drinkable with a dry finish.

Clear golden color with a white head that lasts. The head gives this beer a creamy texture that adds complexity. The smell is of spice and wheat. The taste, spicy, bitter, floral, herbs. Very interesting brew.
