Draught at Fate South, 12/28/15.
Thoroughly hazy golden-amber body is topped by a white head with moderate-to-strong retention.
Very light smokiness in the nose melds seamlessly with the other phenolics and could be passed off as just a particular phenol from a smokier than average yeast. Light clove, low banana/bubblegum and plentiful maltiness adding light bread, vanilla and honey. No alcohol or flaws.
Malty and well-attenuated, with tight carbonation and very restrained on the undesirable esters/phenols (I hate heavy banana/bubble gum hefes). Smokiness is reserved but still enjoyable, though never does it make the beer seem particularly messy or unfocused. Light citrus and clove, with a soft, well-carbonated, spritzy texture. My favorite of the beers I had while I was there, slightly edging out the hatch chile golden.

Poured up on tap at the brewpub with a deep golden body that has lots of haze and supports a light tan head of foam. The aroma offers up big notes of sweetness, banana and cloves and not much else. The taste begins with smooth banana and a fairly firm spicy clove note before smooth sugary malts and modest malt sweetened smokiness murmurs to the surface. Pretty rich and bold for the style but pretty good too with a nice level of smokiness.

Draft - Banana and clove. Cloudy orange with no head. Banana and clove with some citrus. Pretty standard.
