Poured from 650mL bottle (brewed 06/2016). Pale yellow, slight haze, white head. Aroma of light Belgian yeast and mild banana. Taste is more grain malt with a hint of Belgian yeast, with some coriander and touch of pepper. Fairly light bodied, a little thin.

Tasting at Matt’s
Hazy blond color. Strangely it has aroma of paper and grains; the mouthfeel is weak and dry; there is some hay and coriander flavor, and very low bitterness.
Too weak.

650mL bottle, pours a hazy blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out cereal malt sweetness and Belgian yeast. Flavour is fairly dry, with lightly sweet cereal malt sweetness, Belgian yeast and light banana. Light and clean enough, with notes of banana on the finish. It's okay.

Bottle - Some honey, light spice and grains. Clearish gold with a small white head. Touch of spicy grains and a light sweet finish.

Bottle. A bit hazy, light tan, not much head. This has a bit of dusty yeastiness, with a touch of estery quality. Not promising much, though. Light body. Touch fruity, touch tart. Really, not sure what they are going for, but it’s not coming together super well.
