3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 hotstuff (3249) - USA - OCT 29, 2005
Draft at GRBC. Small white mostly diminishing head, fine sized bubbles, poor lacing, hazy, carbonated, and a straw yellow hue. Sweet, banana, spicy and clove aroma typical for this style. Flavor was sweet, banana, spicy, clove, but it fell short of being a really good German Hefe. Disappointing. Smooth, thin mouthfeel. Light body.

Draft.A very light straw color,with a thin head,. Nose of banana and clove ,maybe some malt. Sorry not a fan of Hef and this one did not change my mind,they all taste like Hay to me.

Draft at brewpub. Clear amber color with an average white fizzy head that was mostly lasting with good lacing. Moderate malty, banana and clove aroma. Medium body with a sticky texture. Heavy sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. Good start with way to much sweet to have character.

3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20 thedm (4126) - Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA - OCT 28, 2005
This draft brew from the brewery poured a small sized head of white colored fine to medium sized mostly diminishing bubbles that left behind a very softly carbonated slightly hazy yellow colored body. The aroma was nice with banana malty notes true of a good Hefeweizen. The mouth feel was soft and initially tingly then comes on in the middle with a fading finish. Its flavor was mildly fruity banana malt but needed more strength as it was rather on the mild side.
