Aroma wise it has banana and a hint of clove up front, with a hint of blood orange as well. It poured with about 1/2" of creamy white head, that dissipated quickly, possibly from not being fully carbonated or needing to clean my glass better. Flavor wise, it is banana up front with very mild clove, giving way to blood orange in the finish. It will definitely need at least another week in the bottle to finish up.
I can say that this beer is pretty much what I was hoping for, and I will be brewing it on a regular basis as soon as I work out a good all grain recipe for it. This was a definite boost to my confidence moving forward since my not so stellar IPA.
