It poured a very pale yellow colour with an enormous white foamy head that settled down fast in the glass. The aroma smells of wheats, bananas and hints of pepper. The flavour is a bit thin and watery. It tastes of sweet bananas, wheats and a bit of citrus. It has a short aftertaste. KyotoLefty (1387), Kyoto, Japan

Rich, deep golden orange/amber color. Huge head. Very cloudy. Faint fruity aroma, citrus, banana,
Rich, austere flavor. Big wheat malt and banana, spicy, sweet but mildly so, nice bitterness, little sour or fruit. Excellent balance. Mature tasting, something slightly funky going on. Rich malts all the way. Medium to better body. This is great even from the bottle in Japan. I know it was better on draught in Munich, but alas, no ratings survive!
