16 oz can shared by tfontana, thank you! Aroma is burnt corn, old cigarette butts and dirty socks. Unfortunately it tasted exactly the same. Yikes! WTH happened here?

Can from Total Wine & More, Brentwood. Dark brown (cola) with ring of head and trace lacing. Aroma is strong roasted, peaty malt. Taste is strong tart over smoky, roasted peaty malt. Smooth, frothy texture, thin body, tart, sticky. Don't know if this just sat around for a while but this is not good.

Undated can shared by tfontana on 11/23/24. Clear dark auburn. Spotty, light tan head. Smoke, medicinal, peppery. Is that supposed to be the nose? Not much malt...no roast, little chocolate. Sourish, thin, peppery, heavily medicinal....holy shit that's awful! No semblance of anything.
Thanks Tom, not! Aroma is light smoke, roast, grain. Taste is medicinal, light roast, watery, not good at all, sour.

Pour is a cloudy yellow with a loud fizzy white head. Aroma is pretty much all spicy coriander. Flavor is another heavy dose of coriander with some wheat malt and some bubblegum sweetness. This was a pretty decent witbier.

Pour is a near black with a small fizzy white head. Aroma is a nice almost chicory like char with some coffee. Flavor is pretty much the same nice roasty char with a minor coffee left on the tongue. This was pretty good. For such a low abv beer this had a nice thick body with pleanty of roasted malt.

Pour is a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma is bready malt but with a touch of caramel. Flavor is more of the same bready malt a little caramel but is more dry than sweet. Decent, a little more malt flavor then the usual lager but not a lot of flavor to begin with.

12 oz. bottle shared by tfontana, thanks for the new Hefe and brewery! Aroma and flavor are a mirror. Dry straw, slight banana, and clove. Definitely authentic German yeast. Respectable.

Bottle pour from Total Wine & More, Brentwood. Appearance is lightly hazy yellow-light brown with nice sparkle, thin cap of off-white head quickly fading to a ring with no lacing. Aroma is wheat cracker, mild tart fruit(?). Taste is rich wheat, mild clove, hint of banana. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, a serviceable representative of the style but not terribly strong in any facet. A good alternative to a macro.
