Refrigerated 12 oz. brown bottle poured into a weizen glass. Orange with small white head. Aroma is ripe banana, medium body, lower carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is slightly artificial banana and spice. Expected little, but not horrible, one of the better shock tops.

Bottle: Hazy, yellow-orange with a thin, off-white head. Candy-banana...(like a chewing gum) scent. Taste is soft, overripe banana, again, pretty artificial.....wheat malt, vanilla. Weak...diluted feeling.

Can at Yolo Microbrewfest. Pours really hazy orange. Aroma seemed orange. Med body or so. Flavor is oddly spiced banana, and the banana seems overripe. Spice is mild. Maybe a pool/lake beer.

Bottle hazy dingy light tan. Faint Belgian aroma with some extract of banana and some othe spiciness. Light and I suppose palatable but not very interesting,

Bottle. Honey, cinnamon, banana, wheat malt, and straw aroma. Cloudy golden yellow with moderate head. Very sweet banana, cinnamon, wheat malt, and mild straw flavor. Medium body. Okay.

12 ounce bottle. Murky orange, large fizzy off-white head, poor retention. Aroma of overwhelming butterscotch and mild banana. The taste is banana, citrus, wheat, butterscotch. Thin bodied, high carbonation, cloying sweetness. This easily could have been so much better.

Woof. Coriander nose. Citrus flavor yielding to fake banana flavor, like those Runts that I always throw away. Indistinct sweetness overwhelms the mouth, I guess its a honeyed component but something else I can’t place, and a flavor I’ve hardly ever encountered in beer. Its weird. Anyway, its not good, but it ain’t terrible, it remains somehow finishable. Cloudy but unlively golden appearance.

Sampled on draft this beer poured a murky amber color with a medium sized foamy white head that left no lacing. The aroma was banana, wheat and yeast. The flavor was banana, phenol and bread dough. Medium length finish. Medium body. Meh.

A cloudy dark yellow colour, good head of foam.
I get the smell of wheat and bananas though their aromas are anything but assertive.
The taste is a tad better. The banana takes on an accompaniment of bread which almost brings banana bread to mind.
Good mouthfeel.
Not a horrible experience drinking this but having it again is doubtful. --- Beer merged from original tick of Spiced Banana Wheat on 08 Apr 2015 at 13:18 - Score: 5. Original review text: In the name of science.
