Fresh Bottle - Fall 2007 - Dark peach juice color, creamy light tan head. Citric grassiness warms to notes of breaded fuzzy fruits. Well hopped up front with fruity bread and soft spiced notes throughout. Medium bodied with fizzy carbonation. This beer initially was very tasty, but by the looks of recent reviews, does not hold up well at all. Anyway, I thought it was well done. Could be one of the best Pyramid brews made yet...

Jul 6, 2008 Bottle. Cloudy gold. Fading white head. Nose is wheat, soft alcohol, candied fruit, and hops. Light yeast notes as well. Taste is sweet and hoppy. Some lemon comes through as do melon and pear along with yeast notes, wheat and candy. Soft spices and hop bitterness. Body is medium with a strong dense carbonation. Finishes with more grains, lemon, melon, yeast, candied notes and light alcohol. Not really a German Hefe, per se, I’d put this into the ASA category.

Jul 4, 2008 bottled, poured dark yellow/light red hue with minimal white head, aroma of sweet malt with mild hops and hint of alcohol, nice malt flavor with very mild bitter not as heavy/carbonated on the palate as most hefs, not bad

Jun 30, 2008 22oz bottle. Pours hazy yellow. Sweet malt aroma. Just a touch of fruity character. ... then KP stole my notebook and wrote ,"my girlfriend wants a baby, but I can’t be tied down to one woman." How true that is.

Jun 29, 2008 Bottle from Hollingshead’s Deli. Not, not, not impressed. Tasted like any old bargain hef like Widmer or a poor pull of Four Peaks. Overwhelming bitter finish, very hollow and unfounded lemon topnotes. Just not impressive.
