Great looking beer golden in colour with a beautiful white head on top. Aroma is sweet, malty and cookie like with a crisp hint of herbs. Taste is bready with touches of peaches and banana. Aftertaste is sweet-malty with a fine touch of hops and pepper in the end.

Vaiz (1847) - Den Haag, NETHERLANDS - DEC 13, 2009
Pours a clear golden color with a foamy, thick, white head. Very lovely aroma of lemon, coriander, wheat and something peachy. Taste is slightly sweet, spicy and hoppy, moving to a long bitter finish. Really well balanced. Enormous amounts of carbonation gives this a creamy texture. Lovely beer.

Rciesla (5500) - Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA - DEC 9, 2009
Bottle, pours a hazy orange golden body with a huge often exploding yellow white head. Big yeast y notes, and spices are overly abundant even domineering within the head itself. Spicy pepper tones, cinnamon, and leather y fruit notes. Berries, with a tart apples and citrus tones. A fantastic Ale.

beachbum25 (1033) - Powellville, Maryland, USA - DEC 6, 2009
On tap @ Judges Bench-Ellicott City Md.-Light golden color w/a moderate white head. Sweet, dry hop aroma. Flavors of grass/grain/hay, banana, spice, reminded me a little bit of a Hefe. Light, dry, easy drinking brew. Very enjoyable; alcohol very well hidden, no Idea it was this high. Long dry finish; good brew!

UPDATED: OCT 21, 2010 Great beer. Great balance, great on the palate. Finish is almost perfect which prevents me from giving it the top rating. I must disclose that I am not big on the more fruity beers, so that is what moves it down a notch for me.
