| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 11, 2008 OK...rating this as a beer it wasn’t that bad. As a hefe, not great. Then again, this IS made in Japan so for them to perfectly replicate a German beer is understandable. This wasn’t that bad, though. Aroma was a tad weak. A hind of wheat with bit of spice. Pour was a nice deep gold with a one finger white head. Taste was a little sweet for a hefe, but the nice carbonation and the wheaty tart aftertaste help the beer out. tiffanya (45), Federal Way, Washington, USA

But it has a lot of sour and bretty flavors of a Belgian sour ale or Saison. I thought this beer was delicious and refreshing. Lots of hints of orange, citrus and lactic flavors. Very enjoyable. michael-pollack (2686), King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, USA
