Draft. Amber color, scant head. Aroma of slightly sour caramel. Taste starts sweet and boozy, then an odd sour/bitter combo. Mediocre

5/27/09 notes: on tap at DuClaw Fell’s Point. Aroma is the most banana-ey I have ever sniffed in a beer. There is also some clove and nutmeg that deepen the smell. Flavor is also banana-like sweetness, a bold blend that flirts with becoming cloying, but in my opinion manages to stay on the right side of the line. The finish lingers impressively, imparting close to no alcohol bitterness.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Its got a lot of nice spice--very present banana and cloves. Sweet body, but the problem is the sweetness is a bit unbalanced, and lasts to long. Its annoying after a while, but I appreciate the spices.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Draft at Bowie location. A hazy amber/mahogany with a small tan head by the time it got to my table. The aroma is of ripe bananas, caramel, cloves, cinnamon, and hints of vanilla extract. Medium-bodied. Ample maltiness with lots of caramel, cinnamon, and vanilla extract upfront. A wheaty end with ripe bananas and cloves. Some warming alcohol is present. Excellent balance throughout. Very nice.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Copper color with no head. Aroma of cloves and bananas. Taste is cloves bananas, pepper, and a touch of alcohol. Smooth finish with low carbonation. Good beer, drinkable and enjoyable.
