| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jun 13, 2008 12 oz bottle-pours a retaining thin off white head and hazy yellow/orange color. Aroma is lemon, wheat. Taste is lemon, wheat, yeast, dry. OK carbonation. Thanks to Joe-jwc215 for sharing. BeerBaron617 (306), Novi, Michigan, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Jun 10, 2008 A decent "hefeweizen" but I agree with with the editor in saying it’s not a proper hefeweizen. Otherwise it was very nice and fruity with some subtle malts. An overall nice summery beer. phishpond417 (1935), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | May 30, 2008 This pours a nice cloudy yellow colour, with a decent amount of wheat flavor. lots of grassy character on the palate, aroma of citrus fruits and flowers.

| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | May 30, 2008 Pours from 12 oz bottle hazy amber with a medium white head that mostly lasted with fair lacing. Medium aroma of wheat and spice. Medium body with soft carbonation. Balanced enough I guess, wheat and spice flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. Average brew, really nothing to write to momma about.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 29, 2008 Bright, amber/gold appearance with a small white head and only a trace of lace. Subtle herbal aroma backed up by a small amount of soft fruit. Some sweet malt flavors up front with a spicy aftertaste. Light bodied, decently carbonated mouthfeel leading to a short lived finish. dkachur (2351), Charlottesville, Virginia, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | May 27, 2008 Bottle. Pours a cloudy peach color with medium retention. Aroma of wheat, grass and citrus. Taste is caramel malts with a sharp tartness, I guess from the lemongrass. Not bad. craftycarl21 (525), South Hero, Vermont, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | May 27, 2008 aroma smells of a fairly typical lager with some lemon hints. flavor was mostly lemongrass, not really a hefeweizen as ratebeer notes. mediocre palate. flavor is different, but simple and underwhelming. ok overall.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 24, 2008 Well, I felt pretty good about my super-discerning palate when I concluded that this wasn’t a hefeweizen. And then I logged on here and realized that many other people arrived at the same conclusion. I was right, anyway. So, the beer. Considering it as NOT a hefeweizen, it’s pretty good. The initial surprise I felt after tasting it gradually subsided as I realized that I was tasting something different. It would be like biting into an apple and tasting banana. i love bananas (and apples, incidentally), but if I were expecting to taste apple it would be weird. The beer is worth a taste, so go for it.
