12 oz. bottle. Light gold amber color with ample carbonation. Aroma is toasted grain, mild citrus hints and earthy malt.

Flavor shows light citrus upfront followed by a herbal note and dirty, earthy hops. Bitterness is light lingering and has the herbal note hanging around after the swallow. A much more hoppy alternative to a Marzen brew. Maybe a tad off center, still overall pretty easy to drink.

12 oz. bottle purchased at Trader Joe’s Portsmouth, NH. Color shows a light copper color with fast disappearing head. Aroma is pomegranate seeds and dry dusty wheat.

Flavor is light sweet berry through out the sip with malted wheat and a weak yeast finish. The body is watery thin and displayed a light syrup type texture. Syrup is the only way to describe the texture but it is not a real great description because of how watery it really is. To me it tastes like some sort of berry extract but... They say this is all organic. One sample and I will never return.

A hazy, light yellow beer, a head is medium and white. The nose is quite mild but still great. Lychee, gooseberries and some generic tropical fruits. Fresh and fruitful aroma. Taste is frutiful, gooseberries, also some tropical fruits. Then fruitful is disappreared and spicyness is more dominating, some sourness of wheat. The end is quite dry with spices and peppers. Medium bodied, fresh, easy, nice. Interesting combination, mild aromatic nuancees in the beginning, then tough spicyness. Fresh and tastefull, I like this beer.

330ml bottle from Alko

Bottled 05/27/14 - Pours clear yellowish golden with a smooth white head. Aroma of citric hops, wheaty notes, yeast, pine and grass. Taste is yeasty, stuffy and wheaty with some spices, pine, citrus and earthy notes. Finish is earthy, yeasty and wheaty with some hints of citrus and earthiness. Quite yeasty and stuffy for a wheat IPA, feels more like a hefeweizen.

35,5 cl bottle @ home, BBE 27.05.2014
Aroma is hoppy with tropical fruits and some mango. Flavour has gluey tones, mango, tropical fruits and some caramel. Better than I expected, although the gluey tones try to ruin the show.

(Bottle, 0.355 l - bottled 27/05/14, from Alko, 20140905) The beer poured pale golden and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness, coriander and soap. Palate was quite light bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, coriander, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy, spicy, and bitter. A rather weird brew but a bad one.

12oz bottle from Wegman’s, West Seneca, NY. Hazy amber with a thick cream head; spicy caramel aroma; citrusy hop taste to start then developing a caramel sweetness; and some lingering grapefruit to finish. Very pleasant.
