Aug 4, 2002 Crisp and exceptionally clean. Only a hint of ’standard’ wheatiness in the aroma; otherwise just rather plain. But a well-crafted, easy-drinking plain it is. Could be a wonderful starter wheat for a novice. Whatever the case, I’ve never seen this before; bought it at a tiny store in Deerfield, IL. Fit the bill on a hot summer day, after a couple of hours in the park with the kids.

Jul 5, 2002 Golden color with a tall long lasting head. Wheat malt and bittering hops aroma. Lifeless wheat malt/biscuit flavor that finishes overpoweringly bitter. Not a flavorful bitterness a caffine type bitterness. A honey type dry finish.

May 5, 2002 Anchor is a great brewery, and I love Anchor Steam. I was not, however, impressed by Anchor Wheat. The aroma and the flavor are both flat. The wheat is definitely there, but that’s really all there is to it. There’s not much flavor and not much of a finish.

May 3, 2002 Faint sweet aroma, clean wheat flavor. It’s nothing special, even a trifle light, but it’s a good easy beer that’d taste great on a hot summer day.

Mar 28, 2002 Thin body with some yeasty characteristics. Definitely a an american wheat rather than a german one. Nothing particularly exciting to say about this beer.

Nov 15, 2001 Updated: May 29, 2003A wonderfully crisp, refreshing wheat ale that draws upon many of the fine qualities of a pilsner, while adding a subtle ale character. Wheat malt, subtle lemon and apple fruitiness as well as a little honey precede a great crisp dry finish. It looks great too with impressive carbonation, clear filtered body and solid white foam. A quintessential summer brew.

Aug 21, 2001 This review is going from memory. I recall having this brew back around 1988. It was probably the first wheat beer I had tried. I do remember it having quite a distinct spicy, clove-like flavor, much like a Bavarian Weizen. Judging from the recent reviews however, it seems these tasty qualities are lacking in the current release. I’d love to try it again, but it’s not available here in N. FL.
