Beer #32 or 42 at GTMW, 8-9-09. If I come out of this not losing my phone, I’ll be ahead of the game. That’s where I’ve recorded all my tasting notes. Next year: Google Voice!
Even in my tiny glass that’s had 30 beers in it before, it’s a nice cloudy hefeweizen yellow, with puffy white foam. Smell is not overly spiced, just a solid wheat beer smell. Goes down nice and easy on this hot summer’s day. Not too much spice, ester or hop. Just a slight wheat spice.

Sample at the brewpub. This brew pours a hazy yellow color with a medium thin white head that burns away steadily. Thin rings of lacing on the glass. Lightly spiced wheat aroma with a touch of yeast. Light body with flavors of banana, yeast and wheat. Some sweet spices in the background as well. The finish is wheaty with a short spice aftertaste. Above average overall, and more flavorful than I would have expected given the ABV.
