Sweet, malty and yeasty. A fine, if unusual, wheat brew that’s not entirely like other hefeweizens. The El Bolson line is available at most large grocery stores in Buenos Aires.

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!

Imbibed in December 2002. Made with Patagonia wheat. Aroma of wheat and slight yeastiness. Poured a slightly cloudy yellow gold with a thick white head. Initially a light hoppy flavor, followed by wheat with an acidic twang.

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.

Bottled. Very pale yellow and hazy. Neutral aroma. Light bodied, dry, crisp and mild. Refreshing, but discrete take on a witbier.

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.

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.

Looks great, clean and clear with a thick white head. Typical wheat aroma, but no hop aroma. I had expected a little more citric bitterness, but was kind of dissapointed. A bit too clean, lacks flavour, needs more hops, more wheat... something!

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.
