Dec 1, 2004 Pretty pink-hued light amber body. This beer has a wonderful aroma of rose petals, sweet plant stem juice, and citrusy hops. Playful flavor of those same rose petals, coriander, and this time "ruddier", more herbal hops. Very enjoyable beer!

Nov 28, 2004 660ml bottle from onlyfine beer in Hoegaarden 33cl glass. My favourite wheat so far. First pour darkish orange, hazy, diminishing off white head. Aroma of the usual wheatbeer things, banana, cloves, vanilla, orange, strong coriander, and unusually (in my euro-wheat experience) a pronounced lemony hop character. Good medium body. Finish long and citrusy hops. 2nd pour cloudier, more lasting head, add yeast to aroma and taste, hop character still there but more balanced in with the other characteristics. Very, very good. I’ll need to order more! (Thanks, Gavin)

Nov 26, 2004 June, 2003: Wow! The first Rogue to blow my socks off. A swirling dizzying Arabian dance of pefumes - pour a glass of this and you don’t need scented candles to create a seductive atmosphere. Soft, but firm mouthfeel with plenty of corners and edges to provide the thrills of a Monaco Grand Prix. This is one awesome brew out of the top drawer. There are fruits, there are waves of gentle sweetness that engulf the mouth but never swamp it, there are moments of warmth, and there are moments of meditation. And the finish dries out to a long, long, ever changing and developing bitterness. Yummy! I’m going back for more!

Nov 24, 2004 Cloudy Yellow. The aroma is very pleasant and definately emphasizes the use of ginger and coriander along with spicy hops, fruits and a touch of raw wheat. Again, the spicing is very evident (ginger and coriander) in flavor but in the end, this was very light bodied and very average, but better than typical American wheat ales.

Nov 3, 2004 Not very memorable as a wheat beer- good though. Had it traditional style in a wheat glass and a wedge of lemon. Nice and cloudy, as a good wheat should be.Overall impression positive, but unremarkable. Sparkling head. Expected bitter aftertsate. Would try again without the lemon to verify tasting.

Nov 1, 2004 over all a pretty good beer, a real cloudy golden tan, a very whole wheat flavor somewhat similar to NG solstice and capital kloster weizen. Pretty good beer, love the bottle

Oct 29, 2004 Bottled at Sippin By the River fest in Philly. Nothing going on here. Tasted like it should be. Was a little harsh in the finish

Oct 25, 2004 on tap in newport. well, i probably shouldn’t be too harsh as american wheat must be close to my least favourite beer style and, just by this beer reminding me of all the poor wheats i had in the states, i could be pretty sure i wasn’t going to like it. dark golden, vanilla sherbet and lemonade ice block aroma, very light, vanilla flavour and a bit of cardboard in the finish
