adrian910ss (1032), philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 7, 2008 Pours a hazy yellow honey gold with a thick frosty white head. Nice lacing. Beautiful aroma of peppery clove and orange peel. Taste of cloves, pepper, orange peel, honey and banana. Excellent !!
ilovedarkbeer (766), Dallas, Texas, USA Oct 8, 2008 Bottle thanks to BMan1113VR via captaincougar. Pours a cloudy golden color with a massive head that I can only describe as "foam, if foam were a popcorn ball." Nose: Lemon, grass, clove, vanilla extract. Taste: subdued hops IMO, booze, banana pudding, orange and other such citrus. Mouthfeel: Silky yet creamy. Not as crisp as most hefes but his beer is pretty dang delicious. BMan1113VR (913), Los Angeles (and Dallas, TX), California, USA Oct 7, 2008 Bottle thanks to captaincougar. Didn’t realize the alcohol. Interesting brew. Pours with a large foamy, off-white head and a hazy golden body with very good lacing. Aroma of bananas, alcohol and a lot of citrus hops. Smells like it already has a lemon slice dropped in it. Also some banana and clove deep in the background. Taste is bananas, lemon, orange, clove and vanilla with citrus hops dominating all other flavors. Creamy mouthfeel with light bubbles. Alcohol comes through quite a bit. Really follows the mantra of this experimental series. Taverner (482), San Ramon, California, USA Oct 6, 2008 Bottle thanks to valpoaj. Thanks! Pours cloudy golden with fluffy white head. Aroma is pure citrus. Flavor is sweet - but ends on a dry note and is fruity with some clove in there. Only an idiot would add a lemon to this stuff. New Glarus makes me want to explore German beers more. Walt (2287), Chicago, Illinois, USA Sep 19, 2008 Pour is hazed orangey golden with a thin sticky off white head...smell is immediately strongly citricly hoppy with some vanilla and banana and clove as it warms...taste is sweet at first, turning nicely spiced with clove and cinnamon for sure...then a light grapefruit bitterness in the finish....this is the only hefe that I think I might actually put a lemon in...I wonder what that’d be like... glkaiser (999), Seattle, Washington, USA Sep 19, 2008 Thanks to bitbucket tasting. Dark blonde. Really fantastic mix of yeast, fruitiness, sweetness and pretty big citrus hops. Fantastic stuff.
