(12oz bottle, thanks General_Gao) Small white head atop cloudy amber body. Aroma is medium sweet, banana, some cream, diacetyl. Taste is medium sweet, lemon, some banana. Creamy light-medium body.

Clear amber orange with NO lasting head at all. Smell is funky 8 month old moldy lemons. Flavor is super watery and bland and reminds me exactly of drinking watered down unsweet iced tea. Palate is not very good and has almost no carbonation. Flat and unappealing.

Pours a slightly hazy apple juice colored body with a small fizzy white head that completely vanished. Very light aroma of wheat with a touch of green apples. Watery flavor of just a slight grassy wheat and a minimal amount of yeast. A little bit of banana on the finish coming out late. Thin bodied and watery in texture with soft fizzy carbonation. Overall, not the most flavorful of beers.

Poured a slightly hazed yellow color with a small white head. The aroma was light with wheaty citrus notes. Light citrus flavor. Light body.

Shared by Durhambeer. Pours a still pale cloudy yellow. Not as hazy as I would have liked. No head. The nose is very strong banana, very wheaty and yeasty. Not really any spicy clove, just banana. The flavor is similar, banana, wheaty, yeasty. The mouthfeel is disconcerting because it lacks the carbonation and full body I would expect from a wheat.
