Nice clean blonde ale. I wouldn’t say it’s anything like a german. But it’s an easy drinker. Sk LB

33 cl bottle at Fairmont Palliser Hotel, Calgary. It pours clear greenish golden with a short-lasting, snow-white head. Aroma is stale bread, rust, rotten lemon. Yuk! Fizzy and light-bodied, yet tasteless, watery, short-lived, bah.

330ml bottle. (5% ABV) Pours a clear pale gold with a small, creamy, long lasting, off-white head that laces. Mild aroma of bready, grainy, wheat malt, generic orchard fruit and yeast. Sweet flavour of grainy, bready, wheat malt, vague orchard fruit, a hint of lemon and light yeast with a slightly dry finish. Light body with a watery texture and soft carbonation. Very underwhelming.

341 ml bottle. Clear golden colour with small white head. Aroma is wheat with some fruit and grass. Flavor is the same with a slight citrus finish. Watery and kind of boring.

Bottle: Clear, medium gold...small white head. Wheat, grain aroma. Taste is sweet, honey-wheat malt... Very plain..more like a better-than-average pale lager....not very wheaty, really.....more a grass/straw base. Doesn’t taste bad, at all.....just quite forgettable......not very lively.

Clear yellow with a small white head. Nose is very faint tofee and grain. Slightly sweet and a bit crisp. Thin mouth with average carbonation. Inoffensive and uninspiring.

On tap at Big Rock in Seoul. Very clear for a wheat beer, nice fluffy head. Served with a slice of lemon so a citrus aroma. Not too good flavor, a bit sour with just a hint of spice but pretty bland. Red Rock reminds me of your average Japanese craft brewery, making kind of bland beers but then again maybe that’s only the beer available in Seoul.
