Cloudy yellow. Light, fresh banana aroma with quite a bit of wheatiness. Very wheaty body with light banana. Spicy finish.

Hazed straw yellow pour with light white head and lace. Aroma dominated by clove, light banana, and wheat. Flavor is Sweet banana, with clove on the front and a dry wheat finish. Medium bodied with good carbonation.

On tap on the 4th. Bright yellow color with no head. Aroma was sweet lemon, no wheat. The taste had a decent amount of wheat with lemony sweetness, the finish was thin, at least the beer was served without a lemon!

Pours a dirty gold-orange-straw color with weak white head and spotty lacing. Big ole aroma rushing out of my glass with wheat, sugary malts, yeasty spiciness, little bit of lemon tart citrus and grainy malts. The flavor is similar to the nose with sweet malts, wheated malts, a bit of tartness that seems lemon like as well as yeasty spiciness. I get some Belgian candi sugar as well as the finish approaches.

Draft at Florida Brewers Guild Beer Fest 2008. Full rating updated as soon as I am more coherent.
