On draft at brewery, 02/11/08.

Yellow with almost no cloudiness (despite the claims of not being filtered). Thin skin of white foam for a head. Aroma is very sweet, like confectioner's sugar. Some sweet fruits also present. Still carbonated after quite some time. Wheat flavor present with only the mildest hint of banana. Some vague sweetness. No hop character I could discern.

Due to mixup with taster, I thought this was the blonde lager at first: not a good mark on this beer's flavor profile.

This was a disgusting looking yellow/white that was very dense, absolutely nothing could be seen through it. We were joking that it looked like they had a stirrer in the fermenter to mix up the trub before kegging. No foam and no foam retention. My worst homebrew never looked that bad.

It was supposed to be a German style beer but there wasnt any banana present, instead there was some wheat and some plain 2 row malt present. Not necesarily bad, just a bit plain. The taste was surprisingly good for what I expected from looking at the beer. Nice and smooth with some bubble gum flavor and a bit of sourness from the wheat.

The beer was very thick and creamy but smooth and went down nicely. Fairly drinkable.
