Sampler at the RR Brewpub (Santa Rosa, CA). Golden hazy pretty body with a nice head. Aromas are muted, light grainy sweetness. Body is nice, sweetness pervades with a nice mellow feel. Fruity estery notes of banana and citrus mixed with watery lightness. Ok. No real hop presence save a touch of bittering in the finish. Nice, just not really my style if it isn’t oozing of flavor.

Pours a cloudy dark yellow. Thin soapy head. Aroma: Sour fermented fruit, banana, spice, musk. Flavor is phenomenal: musky banana and spice flavor. I’m not educated enough in spice flavors to list them, but I get some saffron and cinnamon among more amazing other spices. Palate is balanced but a bit sharp upfront. It then mellows into a nice hop flavor.

Draught. Cloudy pale orange with very little head, but good lacing from the initial froth. Coriander dominates the aroma, citrus is in the background. Wonderful flavor, also coriander-led, well pronounced against subtle citrus notes. Very clean with a light spiciness. Thick and dry palate that suits the flavor perfectly.

~Pours a cloudy yellow with creamy white head. ~Clove, spice, coriander, citrus and yeast scent. ~A spicy wheat flavor, cumin and coriander. ~Medium creamy feel, quick spice finish. ~This makes a great summer brew. Easy and enjoyable to drink.

On tap at RR. Pours a hazy yellow with a soft white head. Aroma of malt, clove, phenols, citrus. Taste is of malt, citrus, bananas, wheat, spice, and a little yeasty. Mouth is very light and refreshing.
