jjuf1853 (196), Land O Lakes, Florida, USA Aug 14, 2008 Had this on draft while traveling through Carmel, CA this summer. Served with a lemon wedge, hazy golden color with a medium sized head. Mild wheat aroma. The light wheat flavor was decent and complimented my fish tacos nicely. Nothing spectacular, but decent nonetheless. cazort (340), San Diego, California, USA Jul 27, 2008 (Bottle) Wow. After reading the other reviews, it’s hard to believe that I was drinking the same beer. This beer is very original tasting and is quite good, at least to me. Rich, dark colour, with little head. Wheaty aroma, very light texture,
without being thin. A metallic taste emerges, like in German beers--not
at all unpleasant. Refreshing: easily the most refreshing wheat beer I’ve ever had. Less of the fruity aroma characteristic Hefeweizens...it says "Hefeweizen" on the label but I think that is not an accurate claim...only a hint of that aroma emerges from time to time. Although it is not particularly thick or rich, there is a sort of
warmth and graininess to the flavour that is absent from many wheat beers. At the same time, it lacks the sourness that ruins many American-made wheat beers. I really like this one. It is not only a good beer, but it
is quite unique, unlike any other. jgb9348 (1817), Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia, USA Apr 13, 2008 Crystal clear golden amber body with a super-thin white head. Aroma of light malt, caramel, cardboard and a tiny amount of coriander seed. Medium-bodied; Light malt taste with some cardboard, corn, rice and odd funky sweetness. Aftertaste shows some gross corn and malt tastes with a artificial sweetness and not much else. Overall, a pretty bad offering - the sweetness takes it over the top, but in a bad way - not good! I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased at Trader Joe’s in San Francisco (North Beach), California on 11-April-2008. Ramenen (333), San Salvador, El Salvador Apr 9, 2008 Drank it in Carmel, CA. Pours a hazy golden with very little head and carbonation. Light bodied, watery, some hops undertones. DubC5000 (143), San Diego, California, USA Mar 21, 2008 Wheat and barley malt aroma with some mild hop effect. Flavor of wheat, deep malts, grape and apple. A pretty good hef in my opinion. Quite tasty, with a noticeable hop spice.
