| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 14, 2005 Bottle: Aroma of banana, vanilla, and clove. Pours a hazy orangish-yellow with an insignificant white head. Strong banana and vanilla presence. Lightly sour citrus hides in the background along with some yeastiness. Clove comes thru in the finish along with a little more citrus presence. Clove and banana into the aftertaste. OhioDad (2491), Hilliard, Ohio, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jul 10, 2005 12oz bottle pours pale cloudy golden with a short white head. Aroma of sharp citrus. Lemon and grapefruit also a touch of yeast fill the air above the glass a touch of clove also comes out. Flavor is of bannana light clove, a touch of lemon, some yeast. Slightly sour on the finish. On the palate this is quite light and airy decently carbonated to make it feel pretty good in the mouth on a hot summer day. Refreshing and pretty true to the style. Not bad.. shrubber85 (2886), Wallhalben, Germany

| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 1/5 | 8/20 | Jun 17, 2005 Lovely pale, hazy yellow/orange in color with little to no head. Aroma is very muted, with wafts of winter ski socks, a linen-like yeastiness, and pepper. Something hints at what lemon fabric softener smells like. Flavor is overly citric and sweet. Harsh lemons, acidic orange juice burps, several extra scoops of NutraSweet and a violent squeeze from a fresh, sour grapefruit. Tiny, minute traces of pepper and cloves. Nearly cloying; sticky yet astringent. Traces of harsh water throw off the balance. Finishes like lemon Sour Patch Kids. Does this brewery do anything good besides Bare Tree?

Taste is clove all over the place. Taste is like any other hefe, except the characteristics are more crisp and fresh. A good hefe. SkyinBrian (429), Collinsville, Illinois, USA
