kamish (74), Lake Stevens, Washington, USA Jul 20, 2008 wow. another wonderful wheat brew from widmer. just as great as hef, but not as heavy. please try. kenb (944), Oregon, USA Jan 19, 2008 Updated: Feb 1, 200812 oz bottle via Roth’s. Pours a clear reddish brown with a large beige head. Nose is wheat and floral/citrus hops. Tastes quite nice. A complex wheat and hops profile. Toasty and toffeeish with some subtle fruity notes...Almost ’bock’ like except it also has the hop presence. A nice clean bitterseet finish that carries into a linger aftertaste. Body is medium, carbonation moderate. This is tasty and easy to drink. Very sessionable at 4.1% Well-done! improvjock (55), USA Mar 26, 2008 Pours a reddish amber color with small, quickly fading off-white head. Aroma is malty and sweet. Very smooth easy drinking beer. Unlike most wheat ales I’ve ever tasted, but in a good way. Dubbercody (171), Vancouver, Washington, USA Jan 20, 2008 Reddish brown with a nice fluff head that leaves lace. Mellow hops and wheat, that drinks down easy. It’s got a slightly sweet middle taste that fades into the clean aftertaste. Makes my mouth happy. I can see this being a great spring or fall beer, possibly even summer. I’m a bit surprised it’s listed as a Winter seasonal, but it’s darn tasty and that’s what matters.
Super smooth, easy to drink, session-able beer. It’s nice to have a super tasty lower ABV brew! Thanks Kurt and Rob! Reid (997), Salem, Oregon, USA Jan 21, 2008 Lovely looking ale, dark amber with a large handsome light tan,thick creamy head.
Aroma is quite fruity and full of wheat,
Semi-sweet malts dominate, some berry like flavours are blended in, a touch of the hop near the end, getting some slight caramel undertones as well.
Very nice on the palate, a great smooth easy to drink mouthfeel to this one.
Overall a surprising beer, given the last three"0" beers from Widmer, i hope this is still around in the summer as it would do great then.
