Commercial Description:
The standard by which all other wheat beers are judged. Our deliciously deranged American-Style Hefeweizen is an award winning take on this Bavarian classic. This refreshingly unfiltered wheat ale delivers a distinctively smooth flavor worth sharing with friends.

Hazy, muddy appearance. Aroma is citrusy and yeasty. Flavor, however, was a bit weak. Front-end was somewhat sweet, with a low yeast flavor. Immediate aftertaste is just a bit sour, but mostly watery. Just an ’ok’ beer.

Golden color and citrus scent. Lemony taste.

This is a good ’burger beer’. I skipped the lemon probably because that’s how Corona tries to disguise the fact that there is no flavor. That was almost the case here, but this was a refreshing, glossy-smooth drink that tasted good ice-cold.

Light citrus nose from the cloudy golden body with a thin lacy head. Smooth, with decent balance, but lacking uniqueness. Bitter finish with some German yeast character. A mediocre brew.

Had one of these on tap at Riva (on the Wharf) while visiting the Santa Cruz boardwalk last Sunday. This brew pours a cloudy light amber. The white and foamy head doesn't last long and the lacing is light. The nose is standard dry wheat, I was on a wharf, mind you - so I struggled with the nose. The bready taste is bland but balanced. The body is light, watery and fizzy. Great for summertime, but this is one of my least favorite styles.

Aroma typically wheaten but very light. Color a cloudy yellow-gold with average head---some lace...Flavor features the signature wheat aspects of concurrent sweetness and tang, although both are very muted in this brew. Hops are also very light. Body is adequate, and the finish is just a tapered version of the main body. There is nothing objectionable about this offering, but nothing very memorable either. This is one instance in which I might recommend the lemon to perk-up a fairly drab profile.

The looks and squeeze of lemon makes this drink. Has a nice zesty taste, and a strong finish.

Tasted 7/26/09. 12oz bottle. Hazy with an orange hue. White ring of head. Cereal grains and citrus in the nose. Medium bidied with a mild chalky body. Good yeast character. Bit of clove and straw. Mildly spicy. Cereal malts and mild red esters. Off style, but decent.
