jjpm74 (3110), Stratford, CT 06614, Connecticut, USA May 4, 2008 Bottle courtesy of illinismitty. Pours amber with a nice white head. Smells of wheat, some grass. Tastes of pomegranates, wheat, citrus. Decent.
CanIHave4Beers (208), Des Moines, Iowa, USA Oct 10, 2008 This is different, but not terribly exciting. It basically tastes like a hopped up American wheat beer with a faint, very faint pomegranate flavoring. Perhaps the lack of fruit is not such a bad thing, but even the driest funkiest fruit lambics maintain some a distinct flavor of the fruit, with this one I am not sure I would even notice the pomegranate if it were not labeled on the bottle. In other news, this has a nice little head with some good lace, and is a bit watery in texture. Rciesla (871), Brick City, New Jersey, USA Oct 1, 2008 Bottle. Pours a pale golden body with a white head. Wheaty beer with some astringent fruit, tastes like phony fruity esters and a bit metallic. Eh pass on it. blklab2007 (569), Connecticut, USA Sep 29, 2008 bottle poured a lighter golden color with a thin white head. aroma has wheat, faint fruit, sweetness, wheat, and grains. mouth feel is thin with light carbonation. flavor has a light pomegranate extract fruit sweetness, light wheat body, and some bitters. very washed out with some minerals and bitters lingering in the finish. thirst quenching but not very exciting. stchloe (197), Portland, Oregon, USA Sep 27, 2008 Pomegranate is a very delicate fruit, the extract more so. In tea and other brewing processes that flavor is lost. Even paired with a wheat, there just isn’t any fruitiness left. Butters (422), Temporarily in Nashville, Tennessee, USA Sep 26, 2008 This is a nice change of pace. Semi-cloudy yellow with fair white head and Suprising amount of lacing. Fruity fresh aroma. True to the description, it kinda is like a sweet-tart. Wheaty aftertaste. Not bad, but wouldn’t want to drink a lot of these.
