On tap at the Stone 17th anniversary festival. Unclear yellow-orange body and a white head. There’s a tart touch in the aroma, lemon, pale malts, banana notes and a touch of spices in the aroma. Some bitterness in the flavor, which is mostly lemon, banana and pale malts. Medium body, quite dry, nice carbonation. Very refreshing and tasteful but not so very Berliner Weiss-ish. 130817

Bottle. Strong Brett, yeast, coriander, and wheat malt aroma. Golden yellow with moderate head. Sweet orange/banana and wheat malt flavor with moderate Brett finish. Very good - doesn’t have much in the way of typical Weizen aroma or taste but still nice.

22 oz. bottle, pours a cloudy dark orange with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out big resinous hops, dry fruity notes, and dry caramel malts. Flavour brings out truckloads of resinous hops, dry zesty pine and a big caramel malt backing. Extremely hoppy and malty at the same time. Big bodied but without much residual sweetness. Great meaty IIPA.
