1.7 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
Deep hazy amber and copper coloured body with a non-existant tan head and no movement at all in the body - odd! Aroma of pears, apples, wheat, yeast and a bit of toffee - a bit sweet, but not much else coming through. Assertive effervescence with some light acidic tastes of apples and some yeast coming through, but hardly any wheat or malt, no hops and almost no sugars. A VERY mild aftertaste with nothing but bubbles in the mouth and a bit of sour dryness - an odd beer to say the least. Overall, a pretty funky beer - and more of a flemish sour/gueuze blend than any style of wheat. Interesting to try if you like odd beers and if you can find it! I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased at Freeman’s Liquor in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma on 05-May-2009, sampled at home in Washington on 11-May-2009.

Hazy amber color/ off white head. Big fruity aromas of lemon, lime, apple, mild orange. Fruity sweet n’ spicy flavors of lemon, apple sauce, clove, orange, with tart pale wheat. decent.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Golden orange with a fluffy white head. Deep earthy banana bread aroma. Creamy palate but a weak banana bread taste and a drop off finish.
3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Vending machines are a big part of my life. I like when you reach into the vending machine to grab your candy bar and that flap goes up to block you from reaching up. That’s a good invention. Before then it was hard times for the vending machine owners, "What candy bar are you getting?", "That one... and every one on the bottom row!"
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Bottle thanks to ericandersnavy. The look is clear, golden in color, and not very much white head. The smell is fruits, cereal, and wheat. The taste is tart, yeast, infected, and sweet.
3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bomber from ericandersnavy. Pours hazy gold with a frothy off-white head. Citrus aroma. Medium body with moderate carbonation. Not a lot of flavor - seems mostly wheat and apple with a touch of citrus. Pleasant though. Citrusy bitter for finish.

2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
( 22oz bomber thanks to ericandersnavy) Pours cloudy yellow with a ring of bubbles resting on top. Nose of corn, sweet grains and not much else. Taste of clove, light fruit, with a spicy well carbonated finish. Really? This is a German hefeweizen?
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle courtesy of boomer0813. Clear yellow pour. Aroma of sweet tart grains. Some fruity yeast. Taste of light vinegar with dry yeast. Finishes light but a dry bitter. Similar to a sharp champagne.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
bottle, thanks to ericandersnavy, golden yellow color with bubbly foam, aromas of lemon and yeast, flavor is very carbonated and spritzy,dry wheat and bubblegum, more berliner weisse like than hefe
2.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
[Bottle] Pours a golden color with only a slight haze. Lots of white head. High carbonation. Aroma of wheat and light yeast. Taste is very muted compared to the nice aroma. Some banana and bubblegum along with an astringent and grainy backbone. Sour notes towards the finish. Light body. This beer reminds me of my biggest beer-related pet peeve - talking about a ’real German hefeweizen’ that is not even close to the style.
