(10/14/08) Bottle (thanks a lot archmik for this bottle!) sampled at my hostel room in Chicago. Hazy golden. Aroma of fruits, some wheat and hints of citrus. Sweetish wheaty flavor with fruits. Light-bodied.

Metallic stale aroma and flavor that needs to be fairly cold to satisfy, light golden color with a minimal amount of wheat suspended, okay flavor that tastes a bit like cereal and stays on your tongue, overall its not bad on a summer day, but not really that good either

Pretty flat for a wheat. Just not much going on. A few spice notes and some light citrus going on here, but nothing much that grabbed my attention. Might be good for someone who liked this style though!

on tap-pours a white head and hazy yellow color. Aroma is sweet light malt/wheat. Taste is sweet light malt/wheat, hint of hops. Mild carbonation. Nice.

A nice summertime brew, pours a bright golden body with a small head that quickly dissipates. The little foam leaves tiny laced mazes all down your glass. a hint of lemon and a somewhat grainy flavor. On the label is a picture of a dude with a Flatop hairdo riding in a car.

bottle - Pours mostly clear gold with a one finger white head. It has a light, citrus accented aroma. The flavor is light and sweet with lots of citrus. There’s definitely some lemony flavor in there. There’s nothing particularly impressive here, but this beer tastes alright and is very refreshing. It probably helped that I drank it on a warm, sunny afternoon.

Courtesy of stfun. Pours a slightly hazy gold with a white head. Smells citrussy with some wheat undertones. Tastes of lemons with some perfume and touches of wheat.

Bottle. A very slightly opaque gold with a bright white head. The aroma has some notes of wheat bread and almonds. There is not much else going on in the nose. The taste has some light notes of pears and tomato soup. Bland and boring, not as bad as many American Wheats, with a hint of lemon zest in the finish.
