| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | May 24, 2008 Bottle. I picked this up as a six pack in my continuing quest for an everyday Hefe that doesnt suck. Circus boy doesnt suck, but like others have mentioned its not very hefe. The search continues... jmcinerny (15), Maryland, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | May 16, 2008 It’s not a hefe. Maybe it is an American wheat. Very disappointing. It reminds me of Widmer wheat. Very bland, wife bought it for me, thought she was doing me a favor. Bless her heart, but she was wrong. Brewer101 (162), New Jersey, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 11, 2008 Not a terrible hefe, but it was semi bland. It had a nice aroma, with a light flavor. It had some nice lemon taste but it was a bit overwhelming. I didn’t get to pour it but i imagine it being dull in color with a light cloudiness in a golden hue. Maverick34 (695), New York, USA

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 10, 2008 Cloudy amber in color. Didn’t enjoy this one to much. The lemon zest is what throws off the other malts and spices, or perhaps overwhelms them. rampmaster (320), Alden, New York, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | May 9, 2008 Circus Boy has a cloudy light golden color with a thin head that fades out to nothing. Its aroma is packed with wheat malts and has a pleasing citrus character. On the tongue you get lots of tasty wheat malts, neutral earthy yeast and a big shot of sweet, almost soapy, lemon flavor. The palate has a nice medium body and soft carbonation, giving it a fairly thick and smooth mouth feel. Overall as part of a mix pack I like it but I wouldn’t look for it buy itself. kieleszd (83), Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | May 9, 2008 Taste of lemon and honey, not a lot going on here. A refreshing head, German style, but mostly drinks like an herbal beer. Fun but not a Hefe, nor a recommendation. NJBeerman013 (771), Trenton, New Jersey, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 8, 2008 Bottle. I like this beer a lot more than others I have had that contain lemongrass. It adds an extra layer of spicy/citrus to the flavor profile instead of being a main star as in other brews. This beer pours a hazy pale yellow in color with a strong citrusy/hoppy aroma. It has a medium body, with plenty of flavor and a fairly clean finish. Refreshing and good.
