Sep 4, 2008 Had this beer at Three Sons but it was poured from the top, pretty clear so that might account for no noticeable coriander, ginger or yeasy lemons. Some Koelsch like odors, fairly clean bitter finish, doughy flavors but too much carbonaic acid.

Sep 4, 2008 Pours a hazy yellow with a small white head. Aroma of wheat, yeast, citrus peel. Flavor is wheat, yeast, orange peel, ginger, lemongrass. Easy drinking, low carbonation, refreshing on a hot summer day. The coriander is very detectable and bittering in the finish. Interesting take on the style.

Sep 3, 2008 Lifted but positively fruity nose. Some bitter spices to taste along with a bitter finish and what seems to be a less than subtle hop impact. Not wheat beer as we know it and a long way from the ext book.

Aug 30, 2008 Cloudy, hazy golden pour. Initial flavor is bitter citrus (peels/rinds). Spice lacing comes forth as the taste develops, but does not seem to compliment the initial taste. Seems disjointed in this regard. Finishes light and watery. Not Rogue’s best effort.

Aug 28, 2008 Pours a thick white head and a cloudy orange color with a nose of lemon grass and malted wheat. The initial flavor is full of lemon and light fruit mainly orange peel. The carbonation is just perfect for this beer. Overall it could use some more flavor but for a wheat beer it is not bad.

Aug 27, 2008 This hazy yellow wheat beer poiured with a massive white head that subsided to just lacing on the glass after a few minutes. This is rather disappointing effort by Rogue in that the flavor is very thin and the spices are barely discernible. Thre is some nice hop bitterness at the finish.

Aug 25, 2008 Pours a pale hazy yellow with a one finger white head. The nose is wheaty, lemongrass, grainy, a bit sour. The flavor was grassy, some sour wheat, corn, grainy, a little yeasty. The palate was light and softly carbonated.

Aug 25, 2008 Pours bright gold with a 2 cm tall white head. Can really smell the ginger, along with the pleasant wheat, grain, and citrus. Taste is like an American wheat, wtih spicy, Belgian-like flavors. Orange peel, coriander, and the Saaz are a great mix. The ginger again was a bit powerful, but still nice.
