Draft sampler pours cloudy yellow with a white head. Aroma is of banana bread and yeast. Taste is of yeasts, fruit and a hint of cloves. Nice beer

tap at the brewpub - Wow, I’m so glad my sample from the brewpub wasn’t eggy and poopy like an unfortunate rater below. Pours very hazy straw colored with a dense, lasting head. The aroma is of citrus and clove. It has a sweet, summery flavor with banana, citrus and perhaps a touch of floral character. I actually liked this one. Maybe they’ve improved it.

Definite clove. Not a ton of banana. Pretty fiddling for a hefeweizen. Not the best beer on the sampler.

On tap at the brew pub as part of a sampler...Pours a cloudy light yellow, with a light white head...the aroma is super strong, a total clove bomb, way to much clove not enough of anything else. The taste is the same way, way too much clove.
If you love clove give this is a shot, otherwise skip as this is totally unbalanced.

Draft… RBSG 2010… Murky yellow ale with a small, creamy, white head. Excellent retention. The aroma is a big-time banana bomb with side notes of pear and clove. Light to medium-bodied with a milky mouthfeel and lively carbonation. The thin flavor offers banana sweetness and a kiss of clove. Crisp, fruity, refreshing finish.

A-pours a cloudy, purely hazed golden yellow with a dense creamy white head.
S-the nose is earthy with some spicy clove, banana and a hint of lemon.
T-solid taste, earthy flavors with banana, lemon, pear, and some spicy clove in the back.
M-medium body, somewhat smooth, grainy in back, high carbonation giving a good crisp finish and a little prickly on the back of the throat.
D-straight forward hefe, decent with no glaring flaws. nothing spectacular but easy drinking and tasty.

On tap at the brewpub. The body was hazy dark gold. The aroma was strong bananas with hints of clove. There was also a little bit of bubblegum. The taste was banana peels with some clove. There was also pears and a little bit of biscuit.
1.9 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20
(Purchased 06/03/07, consumed 06/04/07.)Pours a well-hazed, sandy/golden/amber with a holding white head leaving sheets of lace. Way too much sulfur off the top when poured (next day) from growler to pint. Eggy. Poopy. Smelling salts. Lambic-like. Holding my breath, I can find moderate bananas above manure notes. Sour citrics. Rather thin. White grape. Very difficult to finish the growler once my wife gave up on it.

Draught sample at the brewpub, early August 2006. Translucent gold with visible yeast at the bottom, but very little head forms no matter how hard you try for it, and no lacing....banana-shake initial aroma, becoming breadier as it warms, little spiciness but pleasant enough...body is quite sour, a bit fruity and spicy but banana-mash takes over at the finish....full but somewhat gritty mouthfeel....overall fairly mediocre.
