COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This wonderful wheat is slightly sweet and spicy from the coriander and candied orange peels that are part of this traditional Belgium recipe. Simply delicious served with a slice of lemon.

12 ounce bottle. Pours a hazy gold with a small white head. Aroma of citrus, yeast, and spice. Taste is lemon, orange, coriander, yeast, and wheat. Pretty decent.

Its a serviceable drink, but lacks in flavor and depth. I like wheat beers, and its not bad at all, however I felt I was left wanting more complexity. I would probably not buy this again, but it was a good experience.

Smells lemony. Dark cloudy gold. Minimal head. Overly lemon. The lemon is overly dominant. The spices can’t cut through, and the wheat is too subtle.

Caytinator (595) - Tucson, Arizona, USA - NOV 3, 2012
Good looking beer: bright yellow, hazy. Lemon-y fruity aroma (it definitely doesn’t need a lemon garnish, by the way). High carbonation, nice and full for the style. I definitely taste the coriander, I agree with description...nothing wrong with traditional.

Pours hazy with zero head... Lemon bread wheat aroma... Taste is similar with some spice on the back end... Not bad for this style

I like this wheat a lot although the tart or sourness of the beer is slightly surprising and doesn’t seem to fit the style. A medium bodied, golden looking beer with typical spicing otherwise.

Tap - small foamy head, hazy dark straw color, Belgian yeast and citrus aroma and flavor - pretty refreshing

weihenweizen (1197) - Charleston Area, West Virginia, USA - JUN 25, 2012
Refrigerated 12 oz. brown bottle from seymour poured into a weizen glass. Pours hazy pale golden with small white head. Thin small bubble lacing, medium body, smooth texture, medium carbonation, and light citrus aroma. Taste is citrus, light spicy yeast, hint of pepper, and some coriander. Pretty good.

Hazy straw pour minimal head. Lightly spiced citrus aroma. Light citrus and grain flavor with a bit of mustyness at the finish. Light body and yeasty finish.
