Nov 19, 2009 Like a lot of New Glarus brews this has a nose and taste of bananas. And that’s getting tiresome to tell you the truth. Cloudy pour with white Styrofoam head. Orange peel and banana taste with a bit of an alcohol burn. Pass!

Nov 10, 2009 I confess, I love this beer. 12 oz bottle.
Pours a tall, fine head which dissipates quickly. Beautiful yellow-orange color and a fragrant bananas and sweet tropical fruit nose. The wheat and yeast flavors mid-palate with a lively carbonation pass to a spicy cloves with lingering banana finish. I confess that I bought three six packs of this beauty and drank all but two bottles before I got around to rating it. It’s a long way to drive to Wisconsin for a beer, but I do it often for this one.

Oct 23, 2009 Served from a 12oz bottle given to my by my new brother-in-law. Thanks Jason. The appearance is a hazy straw/gold. The aromas are sweet wheat with clove and cinnamon accents. The flavors are full of creamy wheat, malts, cinnamon stick, pepper notes. The mouth is creamy with a slight bitterness.

Oct 17, 2009 Another NG from allendod. Thanks! I begin to believe NG is one of the best brewers. That’s based on a small sample of 2 til now. Pours hazy gold with a fourfinger white head. Aroma of banana ester and clove spice. Near medium body with frothy carbonation. Wow. The flavor reminds of Mexican chocolate - without the chocolate - so that’s cinnamon. So much it’s like licking the bark. Clove and banana follow. A very flavorful hefe. Though the wheat isn’t all that detectable. Just great.

Oct 12, 2009 12 oz bottle acquired via trade. Cloudy yellow pour with a thick white cap. Aroma of wheat, banana, clove and yeast. Flavor is a nice mix of those very same flavors, and it pretty much floats on the tongue, incredibly refreshing. Another winner from New Glarus.
