Sep 4, 2007 Pours a very muddy murky red brown. Aroma of a little roasted wheat and a little clove. Not too aromatic. Flavor is a nice sweet roasted wheat with a little chocolate, a little banana, and some clove. Definitley yeasty. Rather thin in body. Very carbonated. Rather refreshing.

Sep 2, 2007 I like this even better than the regular helles - typical Bavarian weiss cloudy with a nice yeasty head to it. Even nicer spicier taste - cloves, bit of banana, etc. Some might consider the taste a bit odd for a beer, but give it a chance.

Aug 24, 2007 I poured this into my 50cl glass to reveal a brown-dark red ale that had a good head o top and a wavy skirt of bubbles below. The first taste had a roundness to it that just rolled off my tongue and the caramel elements were up front. This was pretty good and on tap should be better.

Aug 24, 2007 Poured a cloudy brown with a large head. Detected a spicy sweet aroma like the scents you would smell during Christmas. Flavor is yeasty with an aftertaste of gingerbread. As it warmed it developed a bananas and brown sugar flavor. Totally awesome! Overall, this beer is great but better consumed during fall/winter seasons.
