gunhaver (1024), Tampa, Florida, USA Feb 13, 2008 Updated: Jun 4, 2008Bottle. Pours a pale yellowish amber, with some creamy white head. Wet, dripping lacing. Aroma is banana, apricots, coriander. Some slight peach. Flavor is spicy and subdued. Dry cider, chalk, banana, slight citrus. Dry, thin-bodied, easy drinking, smooth finish. Not the greatest representation of the style, but certainly not bad. barleyandhoppy (9), Plainfield, Illinois, USA does not count Feb 11, 2008 22 oz bomber, lots of hops very smooth wheat beer, not as strong of wheat as normal but it is called half! maniac4016 (114), bill clinton, Iceland Feb 10, 2008 from 22 oz. bomber cloudy in glass
light nose, wheat/some spice, but nose is very faint of anything dominant. taste is predominantly hops, but it is clean and the finish is as well. the name is half-e-weizen. should 1/8-e-weizen in my opinion. tradistionalists stay clear. Beershine (2677), Hue, Vietnam Feb 4, 2008 Pours semi-hazy gold, with lots of effervescence and a thick foamy head. Aroma of coriander seed, lemon, bay leaf, sage, and grass. Palate is thin with moderate carbonation and a prickly fizziness. Flavors are more complex than the nose hinted at: a nice citrus seed bitter fruitiness, yeastiness, and ginger ale taste is balanced by a clean hop finish. If the palate were improved this would be a much better beer. The flavors are nice but the mouthfeel and body are disappointing. MIBRomeo (1962), Wisconsin, USA Feb 2, 2008 san fran public house.
This stuff is crap... I didn’t like it at all. An odd yellowish pour w/ a small white head aroma of cereal and grain... some odd musty flavors... really just not good. troyc (1173), Lubbock, Texas, USA Jan 30, 2008 (Bottle) Pours a yellow color with a slight haze to it. Decent looking white head as well. Aroma of biscuits, wheat grain, and dusty earthy notes. Taste is similar, but with some bitter notes as well. Lemon peel, yeast, clove and even some grassy hop notes are in here too. Decent palate, with lively carbonation. A refreshing beer, but not one of my favorite Rogue products. aliendan (25), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 25, 2008 Cloudy yellow wheat color with all the little yeasties floating around. Citrusy aroma smells like spring. The flavor is sweet and sour, orange, very transparent tasting with light carbonation. Really refreshing. zebracakes (1214), Washington DC, USA Jan 25, 2008 Bottle, 650 ml. Pours opaque yellow gold. Aroma is hoppy, yeasty, spicy. Flavor is the same but watery and with subtle dried fruit. Overall the body is weak.
