| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Aug 23, 2009 hazy pale yellow color, tiny white head, some lace. nose of banana candy (be there such a thing?). flavor of banana bubble gum (be there such a thing?). light bodied, candy sweet finish. the candy/bubblegum are much too prevalent for me to like this one (not a banana fan i guess). sampled from a growler provided by harrison’s brewer.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 30, 2009 On tap at the brewpub: It poured a hazy gold body with a short-lived white head. The aroma was full of bananas, both fresh and old. Just a touch of wheaty tartness was added to the flavor. The spiciness that I expected never arrived. Not bad.

| 1.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Sep 5, 2005 Sent the first one back because they insisted on dropping a lemon slice in it..."That’s how your’e supposed to drink it!" Wildly fruity wheat, overly sweet and no hop profile at all to balance it out. Weird citrus (lemon) note...maybe they didn’t pour me a new one after all!

| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Mar 3, 2005 Rated from draft sampler at Harrison’s. Bright yet cloudy, respectable looking hefe style. The nose is definitely a big banana right up front ("That’s no banana! That’s my nose!"). Taste is more like that banana Kits candy that only appeared around Halloween. No room for much else. A decent pinprick effervescence makes it easy drinking if you’re a hefe fan, but it needs a little balance like spice or hops to fight the banana taste.
