On tap at San Clemente on 12/3/06: Pours a hazy pale golden with a thin, wispy-lacing white head. Aroma of sweet pale malt and a touch of grainy wheat with some German yeast. Body starts sweet and wheaty with good carbonation and some mild banana and bready yeasty flavor. Very authentic and incredibly drinkable.

On tap at the brewpub in San Clemente. Pours a very hazy, darker orange body with a small, fluffy white head that dissipates slowly and leaves a good amount of soft lacing. Very full and sweet aroma of wheat, bananas, bubble gum, zesty lemons and oranges, and yeast. Lots of spices too giving it even more of a zing. Flavor is similar. Lots of banana and spices with a zesty citrus. Finishes malty, but spicy at the same time. Full bodied, creamy, and very smooth before a subtle dry finish. Overall, a very impressive wheat. Quite tasty.

On tap @ Pizza Port Carlsbad: Full aroma of zesty yeast with a presence of banana as well. Bright and vibrant glowing yellow color with a perfectly sized topping of foam. Flavor is initially sweet but well equipped with a full profile of spices clove, banana and lemon zest. Good stuff and I would definitely get a pitcher in the near future.

UPDATED: JAN 15, 2008 On tap (T Street Wheat )at the San Clemente location. Poured a hazy yellow with a smallish white head. Aroma of banana and clove/spice. Flavor was sweet and banana/yeast. Very good flavor. Easy to drink. Really good for the style.

A slight bit of banana in the aroma. Flavor has a strong amount of fruit. Definitely has some German characteristics. A respectable wheat beer.

on tap at Pizza Port. Cloudy yellow with a creamy white head. Banana bread aroma and taste with good banana and clove taste in the finish.

On-tap at PP SC. Pours cloudy dark yellow with a thin white head, specks of lace. Smells full and malty, yeasty sweet with some slight citrus. Tastes banana yeasty and malty with some slight citrus. Lots of yeast and banana flavor. Medium body, good carbonation.

From an old rating note - on tap at San Clemente. Yellow pour with thin white head. Aroma of malt and wheat. Honey, wheat and banana in the taste. Nice balance.

If this is unfiltered, I'm Samuel Adams. This beer poured as clear as a Mountain Dew. Whatever. Not that yeasty, though I'd say it's part German hefe and part American Wheat based on the taste. Fairly flavorful, but I'm still miffed it's a Kristal wheat.

Draft @ PP: Hazy pale yellow color with a small white head. Real nice aroma of banana, light clove and wheat. The flavor was wheaty with a banana start and lemony citrus finish. Smooth body. Very nice beer.
