Bottled. Thanks to Chicago Beer Society member Michael Rosenow for bringing this and some Taybeh over! Beer for peace! Pours a very light color in our skinny taster glasses. Some cloudiness. Smell and taste are just a little sweet and malty. Not much hops beyond a good balance to malt. I pick up a slight white grape or wine note, then a tinge pf sourness at the end.

Re-rate 11/12/12: Draught at Beer Market. Cloudy amber with a small off-white head. Aroma of yeast, some fruit esters, malt, somewhat caramelly and a bit of floral hops. Sweetish yeasty flavor with lots of overripe banana, a bit of bubblegum, malt, caramel, honey-ish hints and light bitterness in the finish with sourish notes and a spicy touch. Medium-bodied. So-so, a bit weird. 6/3/5/3/10=2.7

Bottle. Hazy amber color with a monstrously huge, slowly-diminishing, creamy off-white head - looks very pretty, but you have to wait too long before actually being able to drink. Pleasant hops aroma with flowers, some citrus, passion fruit and some slightly biscuity malt. Sweetish malt flavor, with some toasted bread and biscuit hints, light graininess, fruity notes and a bitter hoppy finish. Medium-bodied. Quite nice. 7/4/6/3/13=3.3

Botled. An unclear light golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma has notes of malt, wheat, and banana. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, wheat, and banana - the sweetness seems a bit artificial. The finish is dry and wheaty and a citrus note linger. The body is light.

Bottle, kindly shared by Dedollewaitor. It’s yellow-orange and hazy in the glass, topped by a white head. Spiced start on the aroma, then the fruityness shows up with banana and citrus, followed by a touch of grains and yeast. Banana, lemon and some spices and grains in the mouth. Sweetness too, but that doesn’t prevent it from being a bit boring. Thin body with decent level of carbonation. Short finish. A decent beer, nothing more. There’s not much wrong with it, it’s just too boring. (080823)
