On cask at Main Brewery

Appearance: Pours a cloudy yellow gold with a thin film of white head.

Aroma: Bathroom soap, lavender and malted wheat.

Taste: Lavender, spice and fruit.

Mouthfeel: Thick with low carbonation.

Overall: I enjoyed it, but would have preferred it colder than at cellar temp.

On tap at Karl Strauss Carlsbad. Great aroma. At first I thought it was lavender, but now I call it fruity pear and banana from hefe yeast. Pretty nice. Cloudy deep yellow color. Lightly sweet . Easy to drink. Very nice. My wife likes it too.

Draft at Small Bar. Pours a cloudy pale yellow with a frothy white head. Nose held some interesting floral notes along with clove, banana and plenty of lemon peel. Flavor was mostly citrus peel and yeast.
