Bottle shared in NJ post Referend party - picked up a good few years ago. Pours clear orange with a creamy, white head. Lots of Belgian yeast, lightly toasted wheat, a little caramel, ample bready notes. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Sweet finish, lightly warming, some yeast expression, citrus accents. Honestly, not bad.

Peach aroma, with hints of wet dog. Hazy amber, medium head, little retention. Peach flavor, somewhat dry. whole lemon tang and bitterness at midpalate. Medium body, moderate carbonation, alcohol evident. Not my thing.

Pours slightly hazy deep gold into a tulip. Off-white head with little retention recedes to mottle surface leaving scant spider lacing. Clove and banana aromas. Medium to thick with banana and clove upfront turning to hot caramel and earthy bitterness in the lasting finish. Tastes like an imperial hefe.

Keg pour from NH Brewfest. Appearance is hazy orange-brown-yellowish pour, no sparkle, small white ring of head with mild lacing. Aroma is mild fruity esters. Taste is strong sweet fruity esters with mild alcohol. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with average to lively carbonation, finish is more tart than bitter. Overall, aroma is nice but taste is a bit too strong and palate got a little strange with tart finish.

Bottle. Hazy gold color with a orange like hue. Aroma displays the yeast nicely; banana, clove, pears and some cracked black pepper.

The flavor follows the aroma with a very nice full/ chewy texture. The yeast is displayed pretty nicely in the body and flavor of the beer. Tons of fruity character with a creamy carbonation level. Sweet without becoming cloying, nicely crafted.

Bottle from the Brewery Slightly hazy deep golden color with a frothy bubbly bone white head that shows moderate retention. Big banana light clove and pepper on the nose with hints of pomme fruit and sweet maltiness. Sweet bready malt flavor with some banana and clove with a touch of earth pepper and ethanol. Medium to full body with a moderate level of carbonation and a sweet slick mouthfeel. Nice Belgian style sipper.
