BustedFlat (552), Edina, Minnesota, USA Mar 10, 2009 Poured cloudy brown with a thin tan head. Aroma of yeast and clove. Taste of banana, clove and yeast with a hint of sweet malt and caramel. Not too shabby for the price. Nebulor (109), , California, USA Mar 2, 2009 Has a sweet toasted wheat aroma with a hint of banana.
Pours a hazy light brown color with a tan hue, thick biege head, and too difficult to see the action.
Lots of banana and toasted wheat taste with mild esters in the finish.
Light/medium bodied, watery/resinous feel, with lively comfortable carbonation.
What a deal at TJs and it’s OK to mix and match. kseecs16 (865), Naperville, Illinois, USA Feb 27, 2009 Bottle. Clove, bananas a hint spicy. Nice full aroma. Creamy light tan head, a little lacing. Hazy orange brown color. Flavor is nicely tart with a sweeter bready malt body. Not bad, a bit of an over carbonated bite on the palate, fairly light bodied.
dylanschafer (2), Alabama, USA does not count Feb 13, 2009 one of the best for the price. I got a sixer at trader joe’s for 6 bucks. puts more expensive beers to shame. Sparky27 (1567), Phoenix, Arizona, USA Jan 24, 2009 Bottle. Pours a cloudy amber with a one finger cream head. The nose is sweet caramel, toasted brown sugar and banana bread. Taste is toasted nuts, caramel malt and spice with a slight sour wheat finish. Medium mouth feel. Not bad – easier drinker. DarkMagus (433), San Jose, California, USA Jan 12, 2009 Hazy tan-to-brown color with a lasting bit of foam on top. Light bready, yeasty aroma with a hint of sweetness and spiciness. Flavors were rich and full, a dunkelweizen. I’ve had about 10 six packs of this beer before finally rating it. It has everything you’d want in a good dunkel--dark roasted malts, sweet fruity esters, a nice bready/yeasty quality. Easy to drink, refreshing, awesome. I love this beer. And it’s only $6 for a 6 pack!! beastiefan2k (1592), Lawrence (formely NYC), Kansas, USA Jan 8, 2009 12oz bottle from TJS poured into a white wine glass.. Pours very nicely with a thick and murky brown body. The head is a nice medium size but fades rather quick. Aroma is strong banana esters, slightly brown bananas. Its got a of yeasty doughness working there as well. Taste is similar, the esters are mellow and do not overpower but are strong. Very easy drinking and spot on for a dunkel weizen, not sure why the ratings are so low. I will be picking up a sixer of this next time. Aggie80 (708), Michigan, USA Jan 4, 2009 Very strong banana aroma and even the flavor is strongly banana esters,pretty much overpowering all the other flavors. White head with a bit of lacing to it. Smooth and thick mouthfeel to the brew.
