JPDIPSO (4286), Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, USA Jul 13, 2005 Dark straw color with a diminished white head. Light wheat and bubblegum aromas. Sweet wheat and orange zest flavors mingle with a touch of banana phenols. A cross between a Oberdorfer and a Hoegaarden White. Ughsmash (3079), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA Aug 19, 2007 On tap at Hinterland. Poured an almost clear pale golden with a short white head and sticky lacing. Aroma picked up sweet toasted banana and wheaty notes with a nice soft balance. Flavor was of sweet toasty bananas & light caramel with a touch of dusty clove and bubblegum through the tasty finish. Lighter-bodied and a bit spicy with very good balance. Enjoyed it. Skyview (2921), Papoose Jct., Minnesota, USA Sep 9, 2007 Picked up a 12-oz bottle from the brewpub in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Pours a clear golden pale brew with a fast dissolving white head that totally disappears clean. Aroma of mostly corn grits, flowery hops with a touch of banana esters and cloves. Taste is semi sweet, medium bodied, very little carbonation with flavors of toasted malt, some bananas and vegetable. Finish is slightly sweet with a dry banana bread aftertaste. Nothing memorable on this brew. General_Gao (2575), Iowa City, Iowa, USA May 10, 2008 12oz bottle. Poured a cloudy yellow-orange color with a fluffy white head. Pretty standard hefe aroma with banana, light clove, and a bit of yeasty bread dough. Delicately sweet and light to medium bodied. Ample carbonation. Tasted of banana, clove, and a hint of caramel. There was also a pleasant fresh cereal grain note that extended into the finish. Nice. notalush (2077), Rawn-kawn-kohma, New York, USA Jun 23, 2008 The least favorite beer I had here - it had the look, though - very hazy gold/orange, with a frothy, lasting head - lemony aroma, with strong yeasty qualities - bready, yeasty, earthy - understated banana flavor (which is good in my book) - a bit of grainy character - the flavors wheat usually imparts weren’t that easy to notice - light and easy drinking, just lacking a bit of character.
