Pours blond with an incredibly thin white head. Nice aroma of spices, citrus, and banana. Very smooth beer, maybe a little too sweet and has a little too much coriander. Refreshing and enjoyable though, just not the best from Bells.

Aug 28, 2008 Foggy orange pour. A nice white head arises. Floral and fruity aromas. Aromas don’t deceive, some sweet malt, Christmas/Thanksgiving desert spices. Weak hop prescense. This would be one of Bell’s weakest offerings, not their forte.

Aug 21, 2008 Updated: Aug 25, 2008Bottle, pilsner glass. Pours a slightly cloudy pale gold. The fluffy white head soon dissipates. Aroma of bananas and tangy citrus. Presents up front with grainy sweetness; The banana and citrus waft through the mouth, unfortunately tasting a bit perfumy. Wheat and cloves form the backbone of the flavor, and leave a warm sensation on the tongue.

Aug 14, 2008 Bought this somewhere in Michigan. Obviously out of season, but I assume this is still ok. I suppose I’ll find out this winter when I get some fresh bottles this winter. Pours a nice golden color with a white head that’s gone before you know it. Aroma is light but deep, with citrus, wheat, and cloves. Great banana and citrus flavor, with a touch of spice and wheat backing. Slightly dry finish. I would say Bell’s is awesome, but you already knew that.

Aug 10, 2008 Golden with decent, white head / Light, wheat & citrus nose / Light to medium body, crisp, with good finish / Flavors of banana, wheat, orange, and clove / Admittedly out of season, but still elegant and balanced.

Aug 5, 2008 Poured a cloudly straw color with a huge parse white head. Aroma is of wheat and citrus. Taste is spicy with banana flavors on the end. Very carbonated. Decent beer but I wouldn’t buy it again.
