The aroma was what stood out for me with this beer. Bananas and clove, very sweet. Not the most memorable beer, but definitely enjoyable.

Aug 19, 2008 Bottle: Pours a hazy golden with a initially large white head, that eventually fades to a film. Aroma is sweet of ripe banana, dough, spicy esters like clove and more yeasty notes. The body is fairly creamy with an apparent peppery alcohol feel. The flavor is initially sweet with notes of honey sweet dough, and yeasty phenols of banana. There’s also a peppery alcohol note that leads to a dry yeasty finish. The drier yeast finish balances the early sweetness. A decent example of the style.

Aug 15, 2008 Pours with a huge white head covering a hazy yellow body that I find too light in color for the style. Aroma is deep malts, banana, raisins, and clove. Taste is a bit metallic, very yeasty with dark fruits, clove and vanilla. Creamy with light bubbles.

Aug 13, 2008 Bottle. Pours cloudy yellow with hints of amber. Thick, long lasting, white head. Spicy fruit aroma. Body is pleasingly full with spicy fruit tastes. No hint of the 7.7% abv. Great.

Aug 11, 2008 ...bottle from Cloudwine. On the nose, this tickles the sences with some vanilla, hay, wheat, and a hint of lemon. Color is cloudy yellowish\orange, light for a weizenbock, with a decent white head. Mouthfeel is medium bodied, lively carbonation, with tangy lemon, wheat malt, vanilla, bread and maybe a touch of clove, but not much. Seemed to have less clove and orange than the original hefe, but was still a good brew. Finished creamy, doughy with only a slight taste of alcohol. I thought it would be better, but was still great, and worth trying.
