bottle. pours an amber color with many large floaties, there is a one finger tan head on top. smells of citrus and wheat, a small amount of spice is detectable. the flavor is very fruity with some spices nipping at the tip of my tongue. finishes clean with some alcohol warmth.excellent head retention. not much to look at but very tasty.

Cloudy medium brown color with tan head. nice aroma smells citrusy. Can taste the many tipes of spices nice balance

There are a lot of different flavors in here. Citrus, vanilla, fruits, and grains are all noticeable in this beer. Good balance, with just a bit of extra and unnecessary alcohol flavor in the finish.

12 oz bottle - Pours a cloudy medium amber/orange color, with a small, thin off white head that quickly dissipates. Aroma has light caramel, fair amount of clove, hints of apricot, bananna, pear, bubblegum, grains of paradise. Flavor is fairly malty, good amount of light caramel, touch of oak, clove, vanilla, faint metallic off note. Finish is balanced. Overall this is decent, but not all that interesting.

Pours with a cream, five-finger head, fades very slowly and leaves a good lace. Light-medium carbonation and medium bodied. Cloudy amber color with a lot of floaties. Nose is yeasty. Flavor is sweet, yeasty, some caramel. Higher ABV is hidden. $2.15 for a 12oz bottle from Colonial Spirits, Acton, MA

The pour is a murky light brown with stronger red tints especially when held to the light. A remnant head and limited lacing. The smell is pronounced malt. Extra aromas include banana and definite cloves. A rich deep malt also has promise of caramel apples and a bit of brown sugar to boot. The taste is rich and bready. The malt is the first thing noticed but is quickly swept away by the intense banana and cloves mix. Very strong the flavor overwhelms and reflects long after the taste. More subtle flavors emerge though. A sweet candi or brown sugar taste is noticeable. As the beer warms, the flavors become more intense. The malt is light and limited in wheat flavor. Really the spiciness and sweeter flavors just mask any backing the beer has. The body is light to medium. I think if more of a malt presence it would balance the beer out. No real strong phenol taste for a such a higher ABV, which is good.

Pours a beautiful dark amber with a haze that suggests its mystery. Nice head that doesn’t last too long and leaves little behind. Nose is extremely spicy and fruity, can’t smell or taste the almost 9% alcohol. Tastes like a thick, spiced fruit drink, and yeast adds a distinct note. Very enjoyable.

Hazy amber pour. Thin head, dissipates quickly. Fruit and yeast on the nose. Very smooth finish, creamy mouth feel. Tons of banana, some wheat and light spice. Don’t taste the alcohol, but you can feel the warmth.
