Tap at the brewery. Hazy dark amber body, thick off white head. Flowery and herbal creamy aroma, slightly caramelly. Caramelly, sweetish smooth malty backbone, ending dry and bitterish. Flowery hoppy note. No technical issues, pretty much a nice beer, though it is what it is. Again, good job!

On tap at Leopold's. Multiple times. :D Poured a murky yellow body with a thick white head. Nice banana-driven aroma, very nice in fact, with, at times, some clove phenols breaking through and at others a herbal touch too. Taste... actually very much a nice, solid, slightly mild hefeweizen, bananas up front, wheat malt, cloves at times, balanced by the stylistically above-average hoppiness that really just gives a light bitterish herbal touch - which actually helps a lot. More balanced than most hefes. Actually somewhere between the average hefe and a hopfenweisse, wouldn't call it one outright. Now, there's some room for improvement, maybe body-wise slightly, but for a style that's that tricky to make well, on the first try, props. Will see how subsequent batches compare.
