Aug 2, 2006 White, pillowy head with excellent retention; golden-orange appearance with some particulates. Pleasant medium nose, showing German characteristics - bananas and clove appear quite a bit. Mouthfeel is more American (in one of the endearing senses of the word): nicely-hopped, good carbonation, green apple, some honey, finishing dry and spicy. It’s as if someone swiped my German hefeweizen halfway... I’m mildly confused, but very interesting and tasty.

Jul 31, 2006 355ml bottle obtained in a trade with <a
href=http://www.ratebeer.com/ViewUser.asp?UserID=21222 target=blank>OhioDad, thanks Scott. Batch 7083. Murky orange in colour, large long lasting cream coloured head, lots of lace, some dark particles. The aroma has very light caramel malt sweetness, light citrus, some must/yeast. The flavour is of yeast first, some floral hops, some lemon, light orange. Creamy mouthfeel, light body, mild carbonation. Finishes with a light bitterness, some citrus. Pretty good, the citrus, floral hops and malt all balance well together.

Jul 15, 2006 bottle. batch 7083. Aroma: Corinader spiciness, banana, touch of bubblegum, and a slight berry-like aroma. Wheat comes through a little stronger as it warms. Appearance: Hazy and dark yellow in color, there are alot of floaties in this one. Head was just slightly off-white and a good three fingers in height. Flavor: Light citrus, peppery, slight banana. Wheat flavor is subtle and quite nice. Hoppiness is more than I expected, and overwhelms the other flavors a bit. Palate: Light bodied. Good carbonation. Some of the floaties were big enough to be felt on the tongue. A nice dry finish. Overall: IMHO, the hops overwhelm the other flavors in this beer. A nice beer, and certainly refreshing, but I look forward to the others in the series

Jul 11, 2006 Pours hazy and dark golden. Aroma is sweet and yeasty with banana and buttery flavors. Taste is grainy wheat and yeasty with citrus and bananas. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Keep trying, you’re getting close.

Jul 9, 2006 Bottle from trade with OhioDad! Batch 7083. Poured a darker golden color with a nice white head. A very sweet aroma with spices, fruit, and wheat. The flavor found a great mix of spices, banana, wheat, and lemon. Medium body that had lively carbonation. Thanks Scott!

Jul 9, 2006 Thanks to OhioDad. Cloudy yellow orange beer with a thick fluffy head. Very wheaty aroma with a bit of orange citrus and light clovey spice. Also some appley notes. Soft creamy texture, full-bodied. Wheaty flavour, some earthy/noble hop flavour and some light apple/pear fruitiness. Long spicy finish especially as it starts to warm. Quite hoppy as well. Nice beer with a very bready flavour.

Jul 2, 2006 An unclear orange beer with a light orange head. The aroma is quite light, what is there is sweet with notes of both wheat and caramel. The flavor is sweet wheat, but also with light notes of grapefruit.

Jun 26, 2006 Bottle: A clear golden orange pour with a minimal soapy white head. Aroma is of sweet wheat textures, nicely malted, orange, clove, and some light fruit textures. Taste is very similar to a german hefewiezen, with nice wheat notes, decent maltiness, and fruity notes throughout. Palate is sweet with a slight tingle. Overall, I liked this brew. I’m looking forward to sampling the other Wheat ale line.
