jehoey (766), Shippensburg, Pennsylvania, USA Feb 11, 2007 quite an enjoyable wheat beer. Lots of fruity esters, banana, bubble gum, clove, with some dark malt aromas in the mix. poured a tawny brown with a very small head. Flavor was fairly nuanced with wheat and dark malts. little tartness. quite enjoyable and went rather well with the pouched flounder pita. kramer (2407), Sunbury, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 27, 2007 Draft pint at brewpub. Pours a hazy medium brown colored body under a tight bubbled one finger bone white head that retained as a creamy film. Aroma is of hearty wheat with some lighter coffee and roast. Lots of fruity esters of banana and bubblegum. A light tinge of sourness. Flavor is pretty basic, dark wheat with hints of roast and light coffee. Finishes slightly sweet with a nice lightly yeasty tang. Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with a fairly creamy texture and moderate carbonation. Finishes a little sticky. Overall, this was a decent effort, I enjoyed it. Probiere (992), Iowa, USA May 7, 2004 This was largely run-of-the-mill with the appropriate wheaty tang and some maltiness. Aroma is sweetish with bubblegum notes. Mouthfeel solid. Finish non-sticky. Could have used some more spiciness and pep, but not too bad a stab at what appears to be (at least based on samples I’ve had) a rather difficult style to nail.
