Bottled. I’ve never had a skunky, badly made weiss, but I guess now I have. Pale, no flavor, nastiness only. Avoid.

Bottle. Almost clear golden body under a white head. Both aroma and taste feel a bit neutral, slightly fruity and spicy but without the more distinct European style esters and yeast. Pretty average American wheat beer.

Bottle. Blonde, cloudy. Mandarin and chalk in the aroma. Sweetish, grassy flavor with citrus. Thin. Grassy and chalky aftertaste. Not bad.

This pours from 12oz bottle a cloudy, lively straw gold and it has a very good head of foam that shrinks but only just. Here I am, near the end of my bottle and there's one fine solid layer of foam and it has lots of nice lacing. Great looking brew!
The smell has a good wheat nose with some citrus and some sweet malt.
The taste is nice. I'm getting the wheat up front and that's quickly followed by some earthy malt and midway through, I get a good hop punch that takes the form of citrus lemon that lasts right through the finish and leaves a pleasing bitter aftertaste. Hmm...this is a good tasting Wheat beer and it's pretty darned quaffable. I'll buy more of this for sure. I recommend it.

Old rating. Bottle from Old Town. Hazy gold color with a medium-sized white head. Aromas of wheat, grain, banana and citrus. Body is a little thin and taste is a little too mild for my liking. Slightly bitter finish.

Hefiger, schnell hopfig werdender Antrunk mit geringfügiger Herbe, die durch ihre Trockenheit mehr in den Vordergrund kommt. Das milde Bier bietet ausreichend Aromen, zudem ist es außerordentlich frisch und überzeugt vor allem mit seiner abgestimmtem hopfig-herben und in Teilen hefigen Aromen. Zum Ende prickelnd, der Hopfen geht ins Bittere über, das aber auch im Nachgeschmack eine Randerscheinung bleibt. 8/11/12/11/12/11

Pours pale gold in the glass. Nose and taste is mild wheats and hops. I need to re rate this. It probably should be a 3.0 not a 4.0. Rated 3/16/2000
