Jul 26, 2008 Bottle from Ross, president of Nambla. Pours a nice murkey orange amber with a white head and sticky lacing. Very nice banana clove esters, with some sugary wheat malt in the background. Medium to light bodied with a nice earthy texture. Nice pale wheat backbone, complimented by flavors of banana, clove, and spice. There is just the right amount of sweetness. Alcohol is apparent on the finish, with yet more clove and some yeast. It even has some hints of Belgian Tripel toward the end. This is well crafted beer. However, it’s not as refreshing as a well done Bavarian Hefe.

Jul 26, 2008 (12 oz. Bottle courtesy of Headbanger). Aroma is a bold White scent with toasted wheat and coriander standing out. Color is a very hazy gold with good carbonation and a thick tight head. Taste is spicy and sweet. Starting with a medium body it goes down crisp with a sweet feel. Finish comes in spicy with a nice coriander flavor, a slight roasted taste and a hint of banana, then a light bitterness. After taste is a little more bitterness and only a faint hint of alcohol. This is an amazing brew that hides the alcohol well.

Jul 19, 2008 Bottle: Courtesy of alexsdad06, thanks Brad. Murky orange pour with a ginormous white, frothy head. Good amounts of lacing noted. Immediately upon pouring I can tell that this is a special brew, unlike anything I’ve had before. Spiced citrus wheat notes smack me across the face and I receive a swift roundhouse of hops after my lip is already bloodied. Big wheat malt taste consisting of citrus, spice and a boat-load of hops that would whup on the Crazy-88’s. Wonderful brew!
