Bottle shared with Barrios at work. Golden clear with small white head. Lemon citrus is faint in the aroma. Ever so slightly bitter. Wheat taste. Fair I suppose, but I didn’t care for this personally.

The flavor is corn and wheat mingling with lemon zest and lightly accented grapefruit with clover hops and honeysuckle coming through in the finish. Nice.

Smells wonderful and pours a cloudy amber with a nice frothy white head. Out standing wheat flavor with just a little extra hops to define it from it German predecessor. Still a little to sweet.

Pour is cloudy orange with a big white head. Aroma of sweet fruit and spice. Flavor is sweet, fruity and has a tad of spice. Nice and easy drinking.

Opaque cloudberry colour. Orangey aroma with honeyish notes and a wheaty accent. Vague wheaty character with a splash of orangey hop and bready pale malt signature.

(USA) This wheat ale has a hazy orange color with a sm white head. The aroma is of spices and citrus. The taste is light and crisp with a slight orange peel taste. Not bad, could be a nice summer beer !!

Very hazy lightly red-tinted golden straw. Strong creamy white head leaves a ring after every sip. Light playful aroma, some banana, slight graininess. Delicate, lightly estery, some fruit and spiciness. Slightly sweet. Finishes dry and crisp, almost too quickly, demanding that you sip again. Could be dangerous as it s a whopping 6% (for how delicate it is). Two words: delicate and drinkable. A great summer beer as it is refreshing but retains complexity.

Thanks emacgee! Pours a very nice hazy yellow with thin off-white head. Smells like a classic wheat beer. Pepper and grapefruit dominate this one. Very nice flavor and excellent carbonation. Finishes very crisp with a hint of citrus. This one went down very easy, would drink again and again, especially on a hot summer day!
