Tasted this on tap at the 8th Street Ale Haus in Sheboygan, Wisconsin so I didn’t get great notes. Amazing wheat. Delicious, easy-going but complex.

A hazed golden wheat ale with a thin creamy white head. In aroma, a nice lemony banana with light cloves. In mouth, a nice smooth and creamy malt with bananas, light lemon, not bad. On tap at Madison airport location, Jan 22 2012.

On tap at the brewpub. Listed at 5.35% abv. Thick and lacy. A good wheaty aroma. A slightly orange body, thick head and lots of thick lace. Oange flavour, and edgey. Something alike Dancing Man. There are good models to follow in this state. Average mouthfeel.

Apr 22, tap @ Great Dane Brewery, Fitchburg, WI. Pours a hazy yellow with a small white head leaving some lace. Aroma is sweet, wheaty with a touch of lemon citrus, yeast and some cloves. Very lean mouthfeel. Flavor is yeasty, wheatyy fruity palate. Finishes peppery and a bit bitter. Very nice.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Served to a Weizen glass at Great Dane-Doty for the beginning of Madison’s Craft Beer Week. Displayed a hazed, apricot nectar appearance, with modest, off white head foam that reduced to a persistent ring and film, and left some clingy dots & dashes on the interior. The aroma was a bit of musty yeast, with some citrus, subtle banana candy scent, and hints of spice. The flavor added some spritzey carbonation with a bit of tartness, and finished with some light dryness. Standard Weizen, but consistently refreshing.
2.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Sampler. It poured a cloudy yellow with a white head. The aroma was faint wheat and lemon. The taste was wheat and clove, finishing pleasant banana. Just ok.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Draft at the downtown brewpub. 5 for appearance right off the bat. Cloudy, thick orange-tan. Steady, creamy white head. Served with a lemon, looks nice. Pronounced banana-clove aroma and flavor. Really nails the style. Medium bodied, somewhat doughy and yeasty, quite thirst-quenching. Well done, one of GD’s better offerings. Lacks a touch of depth, just shy of World Class.
