3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
UPDATED: MAR 7, 2012 Location: Draft at Little Rock Brewpub, 3/6/12
Aroma: The aroma is wheat, lemon, clove, other spice and some yeast mostly
Appearance: The pour is rather hazy, looks like pulpless orange juice without any head or lace
Flavor: The taste is mid-plus sweet, with some spice, and a light acidic tartness
Palate: The body is rather light, with a tingly carbonation, and late tart/acidic feel
Overall Impression:
This was an alright wheat beer, it has a decdent citrus presence and some light tartness. I didn’t get the banana presence that some of the employees told me to expect. Decent stuff, but unexciting.

Draft at Nashville location. Small white head that mostly diminished, cloudy body, visible carbonation, no lacing, and a pale yellow hue. The aroma was sweet, bananas and citrus. Ditto for the flavor and thin tasting. The mouthfeel was smooth and this is a light bodied German Hefe. Easy to drink, but it lacked a lot of the characteristics that one comes to expect with this beer style. This one is easy to forget for me.

Draught in Nashville at Boscos. Pours cloudy yellow with a white film and edgy head. Yeast and wheat, banana and clove aroma with citrus hop nose. Sour, sweaty yeast (leather) and light malt (grain) flavor with a lightly acidic citrus hop finish. Light bodied and fizzy.

Hazy light yellow with a fizzy white head. Very faint malt aroma and a faint banana bread taste.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Really unfair for me to rate because definitely not my style. After consuming, I couldn’t shake the banana aftertaste. Probably a great example of this style but not to my liking.
2.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20
Draft at Cool Springs. Hazy vibrant yellow pour with no head. Amazing banana, citrus, clove, and a hint of pepper, not much yeast aroma. Flavor has a sweet cloying start, turns to a bad funky cardboard finish. How can a beer that smells soooo good taste so bad? I’m guessing it must have been a bad keg. I’ll have to sample again.

Nashville. Opaque grayish taupe-y yellow, almost no foam. Banana, baby powder, and plasticy bandaid phenol aromas. Tastes of water with lemon, flour, paper. Very low carbonation. Watery and pastey in the mouth.
