3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 Beerheart65 (680) - Pori, FINLAND - MAY 15, 2013
Cloudy yellow, 2 finger frothy white head dies too fast. Aroma has wheat, yeast, lemon, banana, vanilla, just bit spices, herbs. Dry and spicy, medium to light body, soft palate, fruity, wheat and yeast also stand out, not as much spices in taste but they are nicely there in the finish so this one is quite lively and nuanced. Lively wheat with good drinkability.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 fantti (442) - FINLAND - MAY 13, 2013
Kaatuu vehnälasiin samean kullankeltaisena vaahdon ollessa melko tiiviin oloinen ja parin sormen paksuinen. Hajussa on vahvana perinteiset banaani ja hedelmäpurukumi, mutta myös neilikkamainen mausteisuus huokuu selvänä esiin. Lievää makeaa maltaisuuttakin on havaittavissa. Maku on täyteläisen makean banaaninen ja viinikuminen, loppumaussa mausteisuus tunkee suuhun yllättävänkin hyökkäävänä ja makeus jääkin sen alle. Alusta löytyy myös hieman sitruunaa. Suutuntuma on hieman hiilihappoinen, mutta tämä hefe yllättää täyteläisyydellään, samaan pystyy oikeastaan vain Weihenstephaner. Mausteisen puolellle kääntyvä saksalainen vehnä, jonka suutuntuma yllätti täyteläisyydellään. Loppumaussa mausteisuus iskee jo hieman liikaakin suuhun, muuten hyvin tasapainoinen ja laadukas tuote.

4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 nearbeer (3050) - Knoxville, Tennessee, USA - APR 29, 2013
500 ml. poured into a weizen glass. Nearly opaque pear-colored body with an inch of creamy foam on top and active carbonation keeping it replenished. Classic aroma is a nice blend of spicy banana, toast, light caramel, pear and citrus. Flavor is the same with some hints of grape must, baked apple and brown sugar. Light-medium body has extremely smooth carbonation and is well balanced with a crisp finish.

Pours a cloudy pale golden color with a fluffy three finger foam. The nose is round wheat bread notes with nice touches of citrus, lemon, fuji apple and spice. On the palate its nicely balanced and very drinkable. Great light floral fruit sweetness that leads into the wheaty bread like midpalate... quenching citrus spice lingers...

3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20 Hartung32 (98) - Indiana, USA - APR 24, 2013
Very refreshing and easy to drink; but lacks substance. Great lemon nose, but the flavor doesn't deliver on that promise. I'd drink it again, but there are so many other beers that I'd choose over this.
