adamjackson (241) – Canaan, USA – APR 28, 2012

A buddy in southern New Hampshire sent this up. Bottled 5 days ago. Poured into an Ommegang glass. 

A – Half finger solid white head. Golden brown with a bit of haze. 

S – Bready yeast, wheat, blueberries and birch wood 

T – Wow. big wheat and bananas! LOVING the banana taste. Standard hef at first taste then goes down with great big banana and blueberry notes. 

M – Very little carbonation. Heady body, wheat lingers 

O – This is great. Not the best Hef I’ve ever had but the banana is a nice touch.
