Pours a light golden with a fluffy white head. Aroma is cloves, bananas and some light citrus. Flavor was sour and soapy with hints of banana, clove and vanilla. Wasn’t the worst thing I have had it just did not mesh with my palate. FlssmrBrewAlum (1116), Lisle, Illinois, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 16, 2008 12 oz bottle from a six pack bought at Party Liquors (Steger, IL). Pours a nice cloudy orangeish-gold hue with a decent white billowy head. Aromas are nice, consisting of clove, banana, and touches of vanilla. Initial is nice, largely sweet malt consisting of clove and banana esters. Mid way through, more citrus lemon comes through. Finishes sour and not as smooth as hoped for. Ok, finish turns it weak. chicagodri (1041), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 14, 2008 Pours a cloudy gold with a very thin white head. Nice aroma of vanilla and banana as advertised. Goes down smooth, but I thought it was a little too sweet. Wish it had a little more carbonation. I didn’t taste that much clove, but I am not the biggest fan so that was probably a good thing. jbuzz (661), South Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 11, 2008 Two Brother’s Brewery night Three Cellars Milwaukee. Very nice smooth and creamy fragrant Weiss. Small thin head. Basic wheat, vanilla and banana. phishpond417 (1935), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 6, 2008 Pours a very thick and murky orange-bronze colour with much sediment. Sort of resembled a bloody mary in appearance. Little head with great retention but no lacing. All sorts of shit floating around in here. Very creamy mouthfeel. Flavas of orange peel, cloves, mangoe and nectarines. Aroma is pleasent, similar to juicy fruit aromas. In my opinion, fantastic hef. OSLO (826), Perth, Australia
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 4, 2008 [Bottle, thanks Guerde!] Pours hazy orange with a fairly small white head. Aroma is banana and cloves--simple, but its nice. Taste is pretty weak, with the same banana and cloves but to a lesser degree, and also a decent amount of wheat and some bubblegum. Mouthfeel is just a little thin with an average finish. The high point of this beer is the aroma, with the taste ending up a bit of a let-down. Overall it is a pretty average beer.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 4, 2008 (bottle) Pours light hazy gold with a decent size white head. A really great aroma of banana, clove, vanilla ice cream, and bready yeast. This aroma is spot on for a hefe. The taste is somewhat lacking though, with a faint taste of banana, and more clove spice, lemon, bready yeast, and a wheat twang on the finish. The aroma was wonderful, but the taste was a little disappointing, overall thougn, a serviceable beer for the summer. ILoveNewBeer (113), Iowa City, Iowa, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 3, 2008 I liked the yeast culture at the bottom of the bottle when I was pouring it into my glass. I like this one over most of the summer beers that I have had this year.
It is full bodied and a mouthful. Delicious flavor and a sweet and tart aftertaste. I hope they brew this for years to come.
