Amsterdam Pomegranate Wheat

[1379-20080523] Tap. Light fruity cherry cough syrup aroma. Clear, light brown orange body with a long-lasting creamy off-white head. Flavour is mostly fruity sweet pomegranate with notes of apricot and wheat. Medium body has a bit of a tang. Refreshing, good to try.

Light orange with a nose of citrus and peach, candyish flavour that almost reminded me of an alcopop. It’s refreshing and somewhat fitting for the style, but hard to drink more than a sample.

2005-05-23. Yellow bodied with a small off white head. Huge fruity pomegranate aroma. Similar fruit character in the flavour, but much more muted there. Lightly tart in the finish. (6+) Average palate. Decent mainstream fruit beer I guess but leaves me ambivalent. On tap at C’est What

500ml bottle from LCBO. Clear red pour some head. Aroma is intense, storng tang and tart smell, raspberry, mixed dark berries, pomegranate and wheat. the taste is the opposite, this is a weak flavor, artifical and bland. Tart, yes but not in a good way. Did not like much.

500 ml bottle. Pours a clearish copper with slightly off-white head. Aroma fairly strong, though pleasant, of pomegranate. Flavour likewise prominently features pomegranate, but with hint of wheat. Pomegranate not too sweet, more tart in the finish. Light body. A bit one note perhaps, but it’s a decent note and makes for a decent summer beer.

Bottle. Pours amber with a medium sized, fast dying head with large bubbles. The aroma has lots of pomegranate with plenty of other fruit, raspberry, apple, sugar. The flavour is surprisingly bitter with more pomegranate, raspberry, water.

Bottle shared from the LCBO. Dark golden pour with a diminishing head and noticeable carbonation. Sweet aroma with pomegranate, bread dough and yeast. Flavour comprised of honeydew, bread and pomegranate. Not as prominent in the fruit as I expected. Decent brew.

Draught sample at C’est What Spring 2008 Festival of Small Breweries. Orange with a small white head and lots (I mean LOTS) of little bubbles. Aroma has a hell of a lot of pomegranate, but more like pomegranate candy than the real thing. Body is thin, but crisp from the bubbles. Flavour of fruit candy - no, gum - damn, it tastes like Juicy Fruit! I sort of enjoyed this in a small sample, but more than that would be way too much for me, it’s just too frickin’ sweet.
