Sample at the Rancho Dr brewpub. Served with a lemon, pours a cloudy yellow color that looks like a melted banana popsicle. Thin bone white head that diminishes quickly, and thin stringy lacing. Aroma of wheat and yeast with a touch of banana. Light body with flavors of wheat and banana primarily, plus some yeast in the background. The finish is wheat and fruit, with some sweet malt lingering. Average overall.

Tap at cafe. Hazy light yellow in color. Sweet yeasty bubblegum aroma. Flavor is somewhat sweet with a bit of cloves and spices.

Looks identical to lemonade. Smells like garbage - yay, my favorite! Actually reminds me of a Hefe. I guess that is a good thing. Just not my style - and not a great spokesman for it.

Pours a sickly lemonade color. Pale and cloudy with white lasting head. Very banana dominated nose and somewhat flavorwise, along with strong notes of clove. Typical taste for the style. Decent overall, but looks awful.
