| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 25, 2006 500 ml bottle - Pours a cloudy amber with a thin head and a very good aroma of yeast and citrus. The flavor matches the aroma with moderate malt sweetness as well. Unfortunately the body is too thin. I found watery. Definitely let this one warm up some. It was much too bland and watery right out of the fridge, but was notably improved later on. The beer goes down easy and doesn’t linger. It’s fairly good, but thus far I prefer the other three Ayinger beers that I’ve tried. PilsnerPeter (2612), Flushing, New York, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Jun 21, 2006 Pours a murky brownish with orange hue. Nice fluffy head which dies down. Has a roasty, sweet malt scent with yeast. Flavor is crisp suggestions of citrus and yeast as well as a pleasant roastiness. The roasted grains excentuate the flavor of the weizen beer, yet it is still incredibly drinkable. Tingles the palate. porterhouse (1152), Alna, Maine, USA

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 4, 2006 500 ml bottle. Deep orange-brown beer, very cloudy with a thick white but fast-fading head. Aroma is initially fruity, with sweet plummy/cherry maltiness, special B notes overlaying a sweet clove/nutmeg spiciness. Initially comes across as a belgian dark. Very toasty. As the temperature comes up, the normal weizen banana notes come forward along with a heavily toasted malt aroma. Very wheaty. Orange/lemon citrus. This is like two beers in one, both of them delicious.
