4/5 rDev -1.7%
look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.5

Poured from a 12 oz bottle into a weizen glass. 04/23/09.

Pours a cloudy brownish amber color with tons of little floaties. A four finger beige head slowly settled to a thin layer. Aroma is a mix of ripe banana, wheat, orange peel, bubble gum, caramel, and toasted malt. Smells great!

Taste is rich and malty sweet up front with lots of breadiness, toasted malt, and caramel. Lots of raisin and fig. Good wheat and banana flavor, and some clove as well. A touch of alcohol in the finish. Feel is very smooth and medium-full bodied. Plenty of carbonation. Some alcohol warming in the finish. Drinkability is pretty good. It's a bit heavy, but goes down smoothly.

Overall, a very good representation of the style. I'd get this again.

Served on-tap at Texas Arizona in Hoboken, NJ

A: Pours a hazy to cloudy dark amber in color with some very light amounts of visible carbonation and some reddish brown highlights. The beer has a finger thick creamy beige head that slowly reduces to a thick film covering the majority of the surface of the beer with a slightly thicker ring at the edges of the glass. Moderate amounts of lacing are observed.

S: Moderate to strong aromas of sweet toffee malts with some lighter hints of banana and clove. There is also a light amount of yeast presence.

T: Upfront there are moderate flavors of malts with some toffee and dark fruit sweetness. This is over the top of some spiciness - clove and banana - as well as some yeastiness. Light amounts of lingering bitterness in the finish.

M: Medium to full bodied with light amounts of carbonation. Smooth.

O: Fairly easy to drink considering the ABV - which is well hidden in this brew. There is a nice complexity and balance to the flavor making this one quite enjoyable.

Serving type: on-tap
