| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Sep 20, 2008 Pretty much an average Weizen. Lots of bubbles and very little head. Surprisingly it tasted a little flat. Someone mentioned a great beer with pretzels. Maybe I will try those with it next time...if there is a next time. robforbes (1090), Bremerton, Washington, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 2, 2008 pours a clear golden yellow with a small white head, light carbonation, some lacing.
smell is faint, wheat, some citrus, touch of spice.
taste is smooth yet watery, a little tart up front, some grain, some yeast, wheat, a little citrus, ends tangy on the tongue and slightly dry. Aubrey (2774), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 23, 2008 Light golden in color. Soft on the tongue yet it had a crispness to it. I found it pretty easy to drink and was quenching. Light grains and wheatgerm. Also had a honey-like sweetness with lingering caramel notes. Light yet balanced bitterness level. Flowery aromas in the background. Nothing too exciting, but it was pleasant. BlackDonald (1127), Boise, Idaho, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Aug 18, 2008 Pretty inconsistent from bottle to bottle. I have gotten really good bottles of this and I have gotten a few that were complete diacetly bombs. Either way it is not that impressive of a beer. Some very light spice notes, mixed with a faint cereal malt body. Definitely tastes better since they have changed the name. bitbucket (2031), Kirkland, Washington, USA

Citrus and floral nose, light body, medium carbonation. Lightly sweet toffee taste with a dry finish. scrizzz (1266), kirkland, Washington, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 29, 2008 definitely different than the trout slayer. completely clear, brighter gold with a pronounced honey notes. smooth throughout, soft with long fruity esters. spagyetti (68), Puyallup, Washington, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 27, 2008 Bottle. Nice example of a hefe this side of the pond. Nice head, very drinkable, only missing the sense of bubble gum. Perfect after a day "Trout Slaying". DrBayern (1135), Morehead City, North Carolina, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 25, 2008 12 oz. bottle on 6/25/08, brought to me by a friend from a recent trip to Montana. <P>Aroma - Starts with a little spiciness, fruity aromas follow, some graininess, and finally a little bubblegum.
Appearance - Clear yellow, medium white head that settles quickly.
Flavor - Fairly sweet up front, honey type flavors, then a slowly building soft bitterness sets in.
Palate - Light body, medium carbonation, faint stickiness, but a soft dry finish ultimately prevails.
Overall - Easy drinking, smooth, slightly sweet, could be a little cleaner and more tart for my tastes.
