On tap at 33B Exp, pours a cloudy dark amber orange with a small beige head. Aroma brings out lots of dates upfront, with a touch of cinnamon. Flavour is loaded with intense dates upfront, followed by cinnamon and some caramel apples. So fruity - that's a lot of date. Not bad actually.

Murky-cloudy, thin head. Doesn't look appetizing. Big banana nose - an odd choice to use hefeweizen yeast for this because the banana dominates all else. Light cinnamon, creamy body, again a lot of banana. Tastes like a smoothie, maybe but the yeast dominant character gets in the way of the dates and cinnamon the name promises. Probably should have rolled with a clean ale yeast.

On tap at the brewery - where else? Has a medium gold and no foam. Aroma is soft grains akin to a bad lager. Flavour is an oddly funky peppery grain with sweetness that comes off like an ashtray coated in cane sugar, or bamboo soaked in syrup. Dry finish. Memorable at least, good on them for that.
