Rogue Half-E-Weizen (MoM Hefeweizen)

standard hefe cloudieness. nice citric aroma. failry bland flavor with slightly herbal/citrus aftertaste. drinkable and refreshing though.

Very weak grassy flavor. Not really much of an aroma to this beer. It has a translucent appearance, and looks halfway decent, but it is nothing spectacular. The flavor is dull. There is no citrus flavour, and I only seem to be tasting a grassy flavor. I am very disappointed, and upset about this beer, considering I was very happy to see it on the shelf. The palate is decent considering the beer is somewhat creamy. The beer is just so grassy it is ridiculous. I want some yeast and malt, and citrus, none of that exists in this beer. I am upset with Rogue on this one.

Not cool. To me this tasted like Bud Light. And I had just finished a Bud Light. The resemblance was staggering and disconcerting.

Pours a cloudy orange amber with a white head that dissipates fairly quickly. Citrus nose with hints of ginger and malt. Taste is citrusy, midway between lemon and orange, with notes of honey and caramel. Slightly tart citrus finish. Taste has an unusual quality that I can’t pin down. In some ways it’s typical of a Hefeweisen or wheat ale, and in other ways it’s very different. Quite good, though.

Pours hazy golden color with floaters and a white head. Aromas of fruit and spices (ginger and coriander) and some yeast. Flavor of wheat, ginger and coriander. OK flavor, nothing great. Medium body with too much carbonation. I would much rather have a German hefe or Belgian wit.

bottle from lone hill. Clear yellow with a fizzy white head. Malt, coriander, and earthy hops to the aroma. Crisp citrus and spice taste with a mild bitterness to the finish.

22oz bottle. I like wheat beer a lot, and rogue too... so i figured the combination would be orgasmic. Sadly, its not there best offering. Seems like 3/4 lager 1/4 weizen. Some ginger is noticeable. This is apparent in the pour which is remarkably light. Tastes light. Oh well.

This beer is horrible. Pours a very murky peach color with a head that evaporates right away. Aroma is of slight orange and ginger but more clean than anything else. Very soda or seltzer like carbonation and sort of tastes like it too. There’s some coriander and some weird spice which I guess is the ginger or maybe that’s the saaz hops but more than anything else it is bland, carbonated like hell, and tastes like a screwed up orange juice that has been sitting on the counter for a couple weeks. Here’s a case where I wish I didn’t have to buy a 22 oz bomber to sample a beer. A small tasting would have been just fine.
