Probably my least favorite of all wheat beers. Not much of a Hefe flavor and overall, kind of a bland beer. Of course, the first wheat beer I ever tried was Erdinger, so it’s a tough act to follow.

Light but good nevertheless; the wheat/yeast is very well balanced against the hops, which I think are Cascade but aren’t too aggressive. Very refreshing, and excellent if you’re not expecting a hefeweizen.

Yellow-orange with a decent head. Fruity and spicy, but there are not many signs of the wheat in there. It is simply too bitter. Instead orange and mandarin dominates as citric notes.

Bottle (in NZ). My type of wheat beer - dry, perhaps a little grainy, not much sweetness. Hints of citrus is what is an otherwise wheaty flavour.

Aromas of malt, with a dry dusty hint. Flavor is mostly malt, with a slight bit of fruit flavor.
