Jul 21, 2008 BB 8/27/08 bottle into tulip. Disappointing. Smells like a lager. Pours very slightly hazily clearish light golden color, with quickly fading white head - looks like a lager. Mostly what I taste is a prevalent maltiness, with very mild spice and citrus notes; very little flavor - tastes like a lager. Light to lightly moderate palate - like a lager. Wait, I thought this was a Belgian White Ale. Hmmm - maybe this is what they mean by Hummer.

Pours a cloudy yellow, white fizzy head. Aroma of lemon peel and faint malt. Flavor is semi-sweet, lemon peel, faint malt. Palate is light bodied, soft, with high carbonation. Overall a great summer beer....

Jul 6, 2008 Bottle. Pours a bright hazy yellow with a puffy one-finger head that hung around for a little while leaving very little lacing. The smell is very sweet with bananas, oranges and coriander. The wheat backbone is also very evident in the smell. The taste mirrors the smell and is a very sweet wheat backbone with banana and spices on top. Oranges are also present after the initial sweetness. The mouthfeel is medium-bodied but very crisp and dry in the finish with high carbonation. Drinkability is extremely high on this one and it’s a great summer beer.

Jul 5, 2008 On draft at the Sweetwater Taphouse in the Atlanta International Airport. Nice hazy yellow pour with fair white head. Banana and clove nose, Wonderful aroma, too bad the flavor didn’t stand up. Funky yeast flavor is a bit off. Cloying finish.
