Due to the temperature this beer fermented at, I get a nice dose of both clove and banana in the aroma and flavor. It has some slight vanilla notes, too. Perfect beer for summer.
 
Looks like a nice simple recipe! Will certainly queue this one in to brew when my EdWorts Hefe runs out (which is going to be soon as its going quickly)..
Thanks for sharing!
