AROMA: Moderate coriander, light citrus APPEARANCE: very light golden, cloudy with medium white head, fairly dense but which quickly dissolved so that only a very low head remained. Some lacing TASTE: very mild sweetness with a bit of a citrusy zest. A bit bland. No hints of any sourness sometimes found in this category. PALATE: lively carbonation OVERALL: Quite bland compared to others in this category. Aroma entices but taste disappoints.

Pours a hazy very light yellow with long-lasting fluffy white head but no lacing. Aroma is full of honey, coriander, orange, and wheat bread. Taste is initially sweet, but with a bitter, dry finish. Lively carbonation and medium body. Very refreshing on a warm day.

A- Pours a light hazy straw color with a white head. A small amount of lacing was noted. F- A faint yeasty bread smell existed. T- The taste was similar to smell - yeasty and a biscuity. Very light and refreshing with a dry finish. MF- Light bodied with high effervescence. Crisp and clean Great on a hot Texas day. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

On tap. It has a cloudy yellow body with a creamy white head and lacing. The aroma has yeast, lemon peel, and a bit of spice. The flavor is light, with Belgian yeast and lemon up front, along with some of the coriander, some sweet malt, and a creamy mouthfeel. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Honey on aroma and taste. It’s got nicely rounded flavours, very enjoyable..

330 ml bottle poured into a weizen glass. Best before 2/6/13 in u.s. order. Pours a hazy pale yellow, whitish per style with a thick white head that dissipates fairly quickly. Aroma of bread, hay, bubblegum, yeast, coriander and orange. Tastes of clean wheat, coriander, orange, cracked pepper spiciness, with a drying finish. Lively carbonation with a medium mouthfeel. Great beer for a summer day. I tend to drink a fair amount during the summers.

Distinctive wheat with a nice texture, but can feel overbearing after a while.

Immediately refreshing for a summer day but no body to it. Aftertaste of tin. No real aroma. OK but won’t buy again.

Rating #42 for 2012 12oz bottle cold from a tulip glass. Aroma of lemon zest and apple juice. 1 inch sparkling white head atop hazy yellow liquid similar to green tea with lemon juice. Lacing was white and spotty. Tastes of some wheat, lemon zest, and Juicy Fruit bubble gum. Medium carbonation, finishes light and frothy. A great beer will re-rate soon.

Hazy yellow color.. Spicy, pepper, coriander aroma--very strong. Lemon, lemongrass flavors, very fresh in flavors.
