Bartzilla (441), San Diego, California, USA Jun 20, 2009 I haven’t seen this in 6 packs in years, but I do recall the days when I’d get this and meticulously roll the bottle back and forth on the table to release the sediment so I could have a nice, cloudy pour. A bit uninitiated to beer-nerddom at the time, I took it for what it was worth, a nice tasty beer. I’m sure nowadays it’d pale next to 99 out of 100 other hefes I try, but I liked this enough to take the time to rate it. Last time I drank this was in Dallas, TX back in 1997. gmonroe10 (172), Netherlands Aug 21, 2008 Bottle at Chicos. Pours a standard hefe- cloudy gold, with good white head. Aroma is yeast and a bit of citrus, not overpowering. Taste is refreshing and moderate spice- could use a bit more flavor. Very little hop. RSRIZZO (1332), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA Nov 29, 2007 Had this beer on 4/3/1999. Color is a pale hazy gold with very good carbonation and good head. Aroma is an odd sour malt scent. Taste is a little more bitter than other Hefe-Weizen’s I’ve had. It starts with medium light body that goes down crisp with a bitter feel. The finish is odd, there’s bitterness coming from the malt flavors as well as the hops. There is also a hop flavor in there somewhere. Overall it doesn’t fit as a Hefe-Weizen and is not much fun to drink. fro2218 (466), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Oct 26, 2007 cloudy yellow in color. some yeasty smell and a little citrus. No bitterness really and seems to need a little something to round it out. kp (8400), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Sep 1, 2007 Updated: Sep 14, 2008Date: 05/14/1998
