strings (327), Sydney, Australia Aug 18, 2007 Bottle. Pretty much how I would have expected a filtered wheat beer to taste if I hadn’t already tasted some great ones (eg Schöfferhofer Kristallweizen). Utterly soulless, with nary a whiff of wheatiness left to be found. motelpogo (4124), Plzen, Czech Republic Feb 24, 2007 bottled. deadly poor version of a deadly bland style. pale golden, raw sugar and detergent aroma, some harsh and rancid flavours with no nice ones to compensate ChrisTurner (199), Bulleen, Australia Feb 1, 2007 Bottle -- Pours with no head and soft drink-like bubbles. Aroma is not pleasant: bready, lemony and... medicinal. No lacing. Flavour is heavy and genuinely unpleasant. Didn’t finish the bottle. I suspect my bottle has gone off... Will try again next time I’m in Rutherglen (or not). vanvenlo (784), Glen Iris, Australia Jan 30, 2007 19 Jul 2006 - (Victorian Microbrewer’s Showcase) - Sweet ripe stewed fruit with some burnt weird aroma. Clear light amber colour, low head and poor suds lacing. Simple sweet lolly flavours and a hint of wheat flavour. Thin, sweet uninteresting low hop finish. highlandlad (1203), Sydney, Australia Jul 30, 2006 Odd and unsatisfying wheat beer. Failed to raise much of a head. Some caramel and lemons in the aroma. Peculiar flavour mix - sherbet lemons, toffee, honey. By no means undrinkable. Can’t say this brewery impresses. (330ml botle from the Australian Hotel, Sydney)
