can. translucent golden with a short-lasting large fluffy white head. aroma is of sweet grain, butterscotch, and caramel. no fruit to speak of. flavour profile is somewhat thin, it’s mostly sweet with some bread and yeast notes. short acidic finish. normally this isn’t a style I’m very fond of and this beer is no exception.

A very over par beer. Not for a wheat beer lover. Drinkable but nothing really complex. Rather light bodied. Maybe mine was old??

tap at Big Rock in Seoul - Pours mostly clear yellow with a medium sized white head. It has a very light grainy aroma. The flavor is sweet malt with a touch of hops. For some reason I noted that it barely tastes like a wheat beer. This brew is just a light, easily downed beer.

Deep straw in color with a medium white head. Spicy hop aroma with a mild wheat malt tang.Thin with a sweet finish.

The pub that I had this at served it to me with a lemon in it. Had a rancid, almost vomit like aroma to it. Not a great quality. Really bland which got worse as it warmed. Nothing at all good about this one.

Rather "blah" in appearance, golden and bright with a fuzzy, wet, white head. Faint aroma of pale malt as a precursor to sweet malts and honey in the flavor. Mineral water finish. Refreshing enough, but this has very little substance. At least I can tick-off "Alberta".

Why do I continue to buy filtered wheat beers? Crystal clear, yellow. Clean malt aroma with a touch of pepper spice. Mild palate, clean and sweet with an unconvincing finish. Refreshing ...

Weak cut grass nose with some off aroma I can’t quite identify....this oughta be good! Unusually highly carbonated. Wheat flavor was weak but had a lemony component that helped. Nothing I would ever repeat.
