Had this one on tap at the brewery, from notes. Pours a hazy dark yellow color with a small head that doesn't hang around and doesn't leave much lacing on the glass. The aroma was pretty nice, although weak, plenty of wheat and clove with a tiny bit of banana. The flavor is well blended, but nothing is pronounced enough - everything just fades together too mildly. There is a lot of wheat character and a little citrus and banana, but not enough. Tasty brew, but it could be better.

Had a pint a few weeks back when in the area. From notes.
Poured a very hazy dark straw color with a small head (cut by the bartender) that fell to a small ring over top. The nose has some spicey clove, but a faint banana. I want more banana. The wheat aroma was a little too strong, as I like it to be hidden within the banana and clove. The flavor suffered from the same affliction. Not enough banana and clove. Just didn't go too much beyond an American wheat. Not bold in flavors at all. The feel was moderate, not creamy as I want. The carbonation was active and refreshing. The flavor and nose really kept this beer down. Maybe they need to ferment at a hight temperature to boost those phenolics.

I probably would not have bothered trying this beer if this T.D. location was not finally out of Siberian Night. Hazy dark yellowish-orange with a thin white head. Aroma is light wheat and citrus. Light-bodied with a slick yeasty flavor, along with a little citrus and hops. Finish is a little on the thin side, even for a Wheat. This would be a good brew as part of their 15 beer sampler but I would not get it again otherwise.

Another of the wheat offerings from the Dog. This one is advertised on the placemat as "The traditional European summer beer" which makes me wonder why they didn't name it Summer Wheat II. The pour created a cloudy yellow beer with an adequate white head. Lacing was quite light. The predominent flavor is of cloves and that makes it less drinkable to me. The nose seems mostly of malt. This is an OK beer with an audience that surely loves it, but not one of my Dog favorites.
