A light, wheaty taste that seems more like a wheat beer. A touch of citrus and sof carbonation. ON tap at El Bolson beer garden.

A hazy pale yellow beer with a huge white head. aroma is citric. Taste is yeast and citric. Some spiciness and bubblegum.

The first wheat beer I tried. Fairly good, still strange enough for the untrained taste. A bit yeasty but leaves a nice fresh bread taste in your mouth after drinking.

Thanks to El Gordo for bringing this beer back with him from Argentina--Golden, hazy body with a small soapy white head. Citrus lemon nose. Sweet, bubblegum lemon flavor. Finished quite well. Tres bien!

Bottle conditioned, poured a cloudy dark amber with a bubbly head. Grapefruit and sweet bubblegum in the aroma. Quite a smooth palate, though a little watery. Grapefruit again in the flavour.

Appearance: clear blond color, semi-turbid. Medium head, white color, persistent and consistent. Aroma: mainly the characteristic peppery yeast of “Cervecería Artesanal el Bolsón”; moreover the wheat. Low hoppy; citric-fruity of oranges and lemons. Hot spicy-fruity of paprika. Flavor: sweetness of wheat and malty; fresh and citric fruitiness of lemon and green apples. Highly yeasty, with the peppery touch of this brewer. Low hoppy, high sweet. Palate: light body, semi-oily texture. Low carbonation. Fresh, rare yeasty, unbalanced sweet-dryness.

El Bolsón Trigo Patagónico. Bottle. Hazy pale yellow body. Nice moderate aroma of wheat and malt. Good initial flavour of yeast and wheat with a good moderate dry wheat finish.

Hazy blonde with a thick white head, Rather surprising aroma of barnyard and lactic acid. In mouth, a citrussy malt, with light lemon coughdrop, some gueuze caracter. Well, it may have been a decent gueuze, but this is a weizen. Bought at La Anonima, Calafate, 3.99$AR. May 2006.
