2005 or 2006 bottle from StewardofGondor (quite fresh, whatever the case) consumed on 5/26/06.Unfiltered (but settled) brass-copper body has a warm rose tint to it. Small bubbles rise in numerous streams throughout the lightly hazy liquid. White head is immaculately well-retained and creates a fair amount of lacing.Nose reminds me of Oberon, moreso than I think any beer ever has. Not quite as much peachiness or tangerine as Oberon, but just a soft, sweet, supple wheatiness and a light nectarine and soft citrus zestiness. Strength of the aroma is quite high as well. Just hints of bubble gum sugariness and some light honey. Delicate, gentle and very clean.Creamy, lightly sweet wheat soothes the palate as it glides along gracefully by means of the natural, tight carbonation. A touch of nutty caramel corn, with a dollop of vanilla syrup come quickly and then quickly are balanced by light peaches and dry nectarines. Herbal hops, but very soft and easygoing, not a spicy, challenging herbal nature. I keep thinking I’m tasting diacetyl and then tell myself I’m crazy. I think it is just the wheat creaminess, and maybe a touch of corn-like notes from the yeast. A little bit of dough sits on the finish as well, with that light bubble gum seen from the aroma. No alcohol noted. Not watery, with continually engaging carbonation and a very wheaty, soft, full body. When this style goes bad, it’s one of the worst there is, but done right, I’ve always found it to be one of the better, more refreshing styles out there.
