On tap at the source. Pours with a very murky to cloudy yellow body with a lasting white head with some lace. Aromas are huge with phenols, strongly dominating clove presence. Some bubble gum, lightly peppery, all phenols. Flavors are bready, vanilla with a bit of a slick mouthfeel, phenols, medium citrus and finishes lightly tart. Slick mouthfeel with medium carbonation.

On draft. Great pour, perfect cloudy glass. Aroma - hops, banana, perhaps some cinnamon. Sweet taste, a little rough on the back end but not at all unpleasant. I love this beer, one of my favorites from Jupiter.

On tap at the Jupiter brewpub some years ago. This was an okay hefeweizen with little head and reliable American-style hefeweizen taste: meaning that you can expect the lemon and wheat-beer grains, but no complexity or anything above the average. Alas.

Draft. Cloudy straw beer with a white head. Wheat and spice aroma. Sugary, wheat, and light spice flavor. Medium-light bodied. Sweet malt lingers with wheat and light spice.

...on tap at the brewpub. Light yellow, no head, no lacing. Watery, too light. Had some slight citrus flavor, but that’s about it. Weak.

On tap. Pours a cloudy opaque yellow with a white head leaving laces. Aroma is primarily yeast and a whiff of banana. Medium body, lightly sweet banana, a little yeast and phenols. Dry finish. 120709
