opaque burnt orange, fine beige head, streaks of lace,
rich sweet chocolate and banana aroma,
still the rich chocolate and banana flavor but the sweetness is tuned down a notch as would happen with a successive generation yeast,

Nov 2, 2007 tap @ Natty Greenes: Poured a cloudy almost dark amber color with a creamy beige head. Aroma of light clove and moderate amounts of banana. The flavor is clovey and phenolic with some wheaty citrus and banana on the finish.

Jul 24, 2007 Draught at the brewpub. Pours copper-orange-brown with well-formed beige head. The aroma is very clovey with hints of caramel and citrus. The flavor is caramel and clove at first, then some mild fruity esters, especially banana and pineapple. Dark wheat flavors hit in the finish and leave an earthy and spicy aftertaste. Mild acidic tartness in the finish. Respectable dunkel.

Apr 19, 2008 On tap the brewpub; color was an orange tinted amber with an off white head. Didn’t pick up too much aroma, but there was some wheat, caramel and roasted malt; maybe some spice. Flavor was much of the same, but found it pretty meek. Some chocolate and banana too, with a little more pronounced spice presence. Good, but could have been better.
