| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Nov 2, 2004 Gold color with a very thin head. Kind of a dry honey aroma. Very bland taste with some slight malts being its only salvation. A wheat? I think not. Decent enough drink, sure. JK (2967), Richfield, Minnesota, USA

Fruit in the aroma and the flavor. Thin and very refreshing. I think viking could do a better wheat. An ok beer, certainly not bold as the description says. Doesn't seem to be a wheat at all, but a good summer be anyway. Nuffield (2728), Roseville, Minnesota, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 9, 2005 Attractive hazy yellow with white frothy head. Moderate aroma, rather plain. Slightly sour, lemon front, wheat finish, and loads of citric notes. Very frothy, tingling palate. Quite attractive, at any rate. robertsreality (2460), Minnesota, USA

Golden it is, clear at the bottom, hazy all throughout, smallish ring of whitish foam.Aroma: not nice..overly sweet, spoiled...orange rinds, banana peels, left rotting in the sun...not good at all.
Taste: bluh, blah, blech. Flat, lifeless, lightly fruity, lackluster in extremis. Same off flavors scented in the aroma return to haunt the flavor, it’s a shadow of a shell of a taste. Thin, wet cardboard, rimmed with lemon and banana, tepid at best, bordering on offensive at times.
Really didn’t want to say these things, but have no choice, it’s a huge mistake. Don’t know how they can taste this stuff and still give it the go ahead.
Avoid, one and all, ...Viking makes good beers, but this ain’t one of them!
