Cornfield (4245), Oak Lawn, Illinois, USA May 15, 2008 Pale gold body having a steady stream of rising bubbles supporting a fluffy white head, this has an aroma of coriander and wheat. Citrus flavors are lightly added to the flavor and it finishes on a dry, almost powdery note. Drinkable, but I’d rather have one of the "heavier-bodied heffe-weizens" (?) mentioned in the commercial description.

RollinHard (502), Fort Worth, Texas, USA Jul 16, 2008 Pours clear (should this be a kristalweizen?) yellow with a moderate white head. Light on the nose with coriander, grain, light yeast funk (not too clovey or banana) and earth. Smooth and easy going, tastes of light grains and coriander spicing. Very light bodied, but there was still a decent enough texture to it. Too light compared to other wheat beers. This was pretty good with an orange in it, despite me thinking it wouldn’t be. ilherps (38), USA Jul 16, 2008 This one is very light. It has strong citrus flavors with a sweet finish. Seems like a tamed down version of the mothership. carruthm (306), USA Jul 8, 2008 short notes only.
intense orange/citrus nose and flavor.
too light body and pour through ph0tik (63), Denver, Colorado, USA Jul 7, 2008 This is an excellent light summertime wheat. Nice citrus/lemon flavor. Pours gold with a thin white head. rader58 (20), Leawood, Kansas, USA Jul 6, 2008 Clear light yellow color. Flavor is light and watery with the slightest citrus hint. Good beer for hot summer weather.
