Wheaty. Citrus. Light spicy notes. Light acid sourish. Light coriander. Ok light bitterness. Orange. Light milkey finish. Nice refreshing.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle from Bruisin Ales. Pours hazy lemon with a foamy white head. Aroma is citric with a touch of wheat. Med minus body. It’s almost sour citrus, followed by some papery wheat. Rather clean and refreshing in a light soda pop way.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Draft… RBSG 2010… Hazy straw-colored ale with a small, creamy, white head. Good retention. The nose is somewhat reserved, but acidic, lactic and lemony with a lesser note of pale grains. Light to medium-bodied and mildly creamy with tingly carbonation. Even at room temperature, the flavor is lemony and acidic, but unwelcome sweetness does make a fashionably late appearance. Finishes dry and a touch astringent, yet somewhat refreshing.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Draft at Cafe.
Poured hazy golden color with an average fizzy white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate grainy wheat aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration.
The beer went well with the peanuts.
1.1 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 4/20
Pale straw coloured pour. The nose is softly wheaty with a light lactic character. Soft and wheaty but there is very little in the way of tartness or acidity. Bland and quite watery - sort of like a watered-down American wheat ale. Meh.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle, batch 9861: Pours a clear pale golden with an effervescent ring of white head. Has a tart orange zest nose with a subtle grainy wheat character. Starts with average fullness and a mild wheaty sweetness with a hint of clove before a crisp, tart citric finish. Pretty smooth and drinkable, but a little too tart for a session ale for my tastes.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle from batch number 9861 thanks to LtDan. Pours with a hazy golden body and a white head that stays. Aroma is grainy, lacto, and grassy. Flavor is lemon, lactic and grainy. Not super sour. Fizzy and dry. Could be a bit more sour as a Berliner Weisse.
