On tap @ the brew pub 10/7/07: Deep amber coppery, hazy, w/ a lasting light beige, medium sized head. Wheat malt, toasted malt w/ a combination of raisiny and plum fruit, clove, and bananas all at once! An ever so slight vanilla note w/ a touch of bubblegum! Classic nose! Well balanced but just to sweet malty flavors. Wheat malt, bananas, cloves, toasted malt and hints of bubblegum and raisins. Dry wheat malt flavored finish w/ a clove and toasted malt and raisiny clove spiced short lived aftertaste. Leaves the palate clean begging for more! I really prefer Aventinus, but this to me seems like a really good WB! Lots of the classic flavors/aromas, and highly enjoyable!

Shared by butters at C-bus9. I did not get this at all apparently, as I thought it was horrid. The taste was buttery, messy and a convoluted mess of sweet malts, butter, bubble gum and so on. Perhaps infected? I don’t see how as it was straight from the brewery, but this was just awful in my opinion.

GABF 2007: Poured a hazy brown-yellow color. The aroma had a hint of banana, wheaty citrus and some sweetness. Wheaty flavor with a nice banana note. Medium bodied.
