A-copper red in color, quite hazy with a pure white head.
S-the nose brings notes of clove and banana, caramel malts take over with a bready malt behind.
T-follows the nose, clove and banana up front, strong caramel malt and lots of brown sugar with toasted bread behind.
M-smooth and creamy with good carbonation that holds the body throughout.
D-interesting balance with a hefeweizen flavors up front and a good malty backbone.

Served on-tap at Grizzly Peak. The best of the beers I tried there.
A: The ale is a bronze copper color, clear despite the darker hue. A miniscule head, less than half a finger, provided minimal quantities of lace.
S: The nose is caramel malty sweetened further by the addition of a Belgian yeast strain. The yeast isn't overwhelmingly fruity but it is sweet enough to stand out amongst the din.
T: The Belgian yeast strain has done wonders, turning a (likely) ordinary amber ale into a pretty good drink. The caramel malts, bready as they are, support the sweetness produced by the yeast. That sweetness is dry, like candi sugars only without the excess fruity byproducts. The ale is moderately carbonated, allowing the yeast and grain flavors to hang around.
M: The mouthfeel is sweet, not fruity sweet, but tingly sweet. The yeast has done wonders on an average ale.
D: The best of the sampler that we tried. A refreshingly sweet finish to this good ale.
