Looks like they brought back an old one. 4oz draft sample at the brewpub. Color is slightly cloudy straw gold. Aroma is spices and cloves. Taste is over spiced cloves and banana with that belgian yeast flavor. Rather typical belgian wheat, IMO, but the spices and clove were a little strong for me. Fine beer, nothing spectacular.

Had this on tap. Poured a deep amber to and almost orange color, with a decent head that didn't stick around long, minimal lacing on the glass. Aroma is mildly that of bananas and maybe some citrus. The taste was citrus, with some spiciness, that was a bit over done. Medium carbonation, thin on the tongue. I wasn't really impressed. It wasn't bad just a so-so beer.

The head was large, off-white and it had fine sized bubbles.The body was clear and the hue was orange.This beer left only a fair amount of lacing on the sides of my glass.The nose was that of bananas and the flavor was that of oranges and bananas.The mouthfeel was smooth, thin and watery.

Pours a hazy light orange color, perhaps a bit too dark per the style. Aromas of coriander, orange rind and yeast present. Taste is spicy and yeasty, with a citrusy bite lingering beneath. Finish is long and spicy. The spices in this beer seem to be a bit too overwhelming for the style, but don't do too much harm when all is said and done. Fairly carbonated, light-to-medium bodied. Pretty decent wit, but nothing to write home about.
