Golden with small white head. Yeasty, berry notes. Sweetish banana flavor. Mouthfeel is thin. Refreshing but light. (7/3/6/2/10 2.8).
Re-rated, bottled (BB 12/2008).
Hazy orange color, small steady head. Very fruity (apricot, mango, banana) nose. Carbonated. Very wheat beer like, lots of banana esters. Thin palate. (7/3/7/3/13 3.3) Tejas (696), Dallas, Texas, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 14, 2004 Updated: Sep 9, 2007Despite it’s low rating compared to the other varieties, I really like this one. It’s a nice one to drink many of b/c it doesn’t deliver a wallop of alcohol. There is definitely an alcohol flavor but it’s subtle. This one has tons of flavor and has a bit of citrus/tart under-tones. At first I wasn’t sure how I would rate it but it has really grown on me. It seems as if the more I drink it the more I crave it. mj (4998), Colorado, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 4, 2004 Bright and glowing golden hazy appearance with a beautiful full white head. Aroma is a straw and grain sour experience... flavor is a thick and zesty mixture of white grapes, pears, lemon, bread and some yeast. Quite thick in the mouth but still feels light. Bit of a rotten pear flavor loses some points. Silphium (2124), Haslett, Michigan, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 8, 2004 Pours cloudy orange with a medium off-white head. Banana and orange aroma. Flavor is sharp and citrusy, with lemon, orange, and a touch of banana mingling with white grape and perhaps plum. This beer does have a yeasty cookie dough aspect. Although the palate is a bit acidic and sharp for my tastes, overall this is a good beer. matta (1138), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 22, 2004 Pours with a fine hazy bronzy body and a soft downy head. The aroma brings forth notes of sweet honey, blossoming jasmine, and a fruity suggestion of plum. The flavor is all the same, but with more yeasty doughy notes, WAY more Plum… and lots of it… and ye-vast (in pirate talk) sweet honey and a little barnyard accompaniment. The palate is silky.. a very delicious Blond Ale! Sven (229), Lancaster, California, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 12, 2004 Cloudy, dark orange in colour, nice head and beautiful lace. Yeasty and spicy. Full-bodied with a lot of carbonation, tart with some bitterness.
