Poured from the tap. Cloudy, golden orangey yellow with minimal white head. Aroma of Belgian yeast and banana. Taste is predominantly banana and yeast. Seems more like a weizen than a Belgian ale.

Hazy amber. Phenolic...bubblegum, banana and malts are a little underattenuated. Sweet taste, more than a poorly structured weizen than a pale ale. So I don’t know what they are aiming for.

Hazy light amber color with compact head, nitro-like. It has a bit too much vegetables aroma and flavor; the mouthfeel is smooth, the flavor is malty too, sweetish, there is some Belgian yeast character, it has correct bitterness. It’s also slightly metallic in the final.
I had Belgian beers similar to this one, but they were not the best ones. Clumsy. The vegetable presence is upsetting.

On tap at 33 Acres, pours a cloudy golden orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out a hybrid of Belgian yeast and American hops, with notes of spice, banana, and grassy hops. Flavour is about the same, with a pronounced hop character that shines through atop notes of banana, clove, spices, and doughy malt. Well-balanced and drinkable, though nothing special here.
