beachbum25 (597), Powellville, Maryland, USA Feb 14, 2008 12 oz bottle-poured a cloudy orange color w/no head. Had no carbonation at all. This is a bad bottle; flat, no head, no flavor. I debated weather or not to rate it, but since I just bought it @ Shawan & it had no date of any kind on the bottle to alert me to a problem, I really didn’t feel too guilty about it. Be wary of this one if you see it there-or elsewhere. It has only had 5 ratings in the last 2 years; these bottles must be very old! ryan (1706), Beltsville, Maryland, USA Jul 2, 2007 Cloudy, pale body with a small, white head. Nose if dead on to style with banana and light clove and some dough. The flavor is light banana, light clove, bread and a touch of honey, fairly dry. Medium/light body is very soft with light carbonation, just a bit thin on the finish. Very quaffable. Well done. jpm30 (1588), East Central, Georgia, USA Mar 25, 2007 From a 12 oz. bottle, no freshness date, a blurb on the back label, sampled at cellar temperature in a weizen glass.
Poured a slightly hazy, reddish golden orange with a foamy white head, decent retention, minimal amount of sticking.
Aromas of banana and clove, fruity, spicy and wheat malty.
Good, steady medium carbonation and a malty crisp, dryish, creamy smooth medium bodied mouthfeel.
For an American brew, a nice hefeweizen taste, the required banana and cloves, a good fruity, malty twang, lemon and spice, a soft hop bitterness towards the end and a dry yeasty, malty finish.
A surprise, very enjoyable, easy, smooth drinkability, if you like hefe’s and don’t think Americans can do a decent one, then you need to try this. This is decent one, not a great one, but did the trick for me.
