Sep 14, 2006 Updated: Sep 26, 2006Bottle, Sept 2006. Pours a light gold color. Lageresque. Aroma was mostly banana, with some bubblegum. Tast was good, not great. Not overly tasty, but drinkable. Not very complex, a strong banana taste. Would drink again.

Jan 1, 2007 Cloudy yellow colored beer. I half expected some red tones given the name. I was suprised by it’s hint of fruit flavor.

Mar 15, 2007 Updated: Aug 2, 2008I finally got a fresh one of these and have adjusted my score up by just over a point. Nice bready aroma with a light clove and hint of fruity ester. Average approx 4 SRM appearance with decent head. Nice wheaty flavor with little input from malt, light clove and very light banana esters. Seems to be a blend of American wheat and German wheat yeast. Nice mouth feel, no flaws. Overall an awesome thirst quencher, but lacks the complexity to score higher. I’m glad I tried this one again!

Jan 11, 2008 Pours a hazy amber with a small white head (comprised of tiny bubbles) that reduces fairly quickly. The nose is classic hefe: lightly dusty and lightly sour wheat with citrus and yeasty banana notes in supporting roles. These notes are not as well balanced or integrated as some hefes, but I still like the aroma. The mouthfeel is light and slick with fairly assertive carbonation and a clean finish. The flavor follows the nose, concluding with an emphasis on a light clove note. While this may not be a top tier hefeweizen, I think its a fairly solid and tasty brew. It’s certainly better than I was expecting given my experience with other Flying Dog session beers and the average score it holds on this site.

Jun 4, 2007 Bright yellow collor. Slightly meaty (a lot of yeast in the bottle) Nicely carbinated with a lemon finish. Good, different wheat beer.

May 10, 2009 A me piacciono molto le birre pulite e tranquille, ma questi americani non sono tanto capaci a fare una weizen come si deve...

Jun 16, 2009 sample on 6/14/09. pours a golden unfiltered with a small white head. lots of lemon on the nose. light body with a good amount of citrus, but kind of falls flat towards the finish. light body. decent wheat, but one dimensional.

Aug 3, 2008 Pours cloudy orange-tinged from the bottle. I’d say the citrus aspect is as much orange as lemon. It’s sweet and not really tart or tangy. (no wheat twang either.) There is some clove spice in there as well. Overall, it’s fairly light, but tasty. Easy to guzzle.
