On tap at New Albanian, pours a hazy golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out banana and clove upfront, with a bit of citrus. Flavour is along the same lines, with citrus, banana and spicy clove all in interplay. A little sweet and estery, but it's well-made. Decent.

Draft. Clear golden body with a frothy white head, rapidly diminishing. Classic aroma of banana, clove, toasted grain, though all are light. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes lightly to moderately sweet and lightly bitter. Thin to medium body, watery/sticky texture, lively carbonation. Grainy aftertaste and a bit of plastic/chemical.

Draft (growler). Banana, orange, clove and wheat malt aroma. Slightly hazy golden yellow with large fluffy white head and moderate effervescence. Mildly sweet banana/orange, fairly strong clove and wheat malt flavor. Great balance - not too sweet, fruity or spicy. Very solid. Oh, what I’ve prayed for - a solid local Hefeweizen. Hopefully will be a regular seasonal. / Re-rate 7-1-16. Draft. Subsequent batches much more subdued in both aroma and flavor. Still a decent beer but not nearly as good as the initial batch. / Re-rate 8-4-18 in Bottle. Much stronger clove aroma and flavor - almost overwhelming/medicinal when very cold (40 deg F) but smooths out considerably at cellar temperature.
