3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottled: Golden. Clear. Small, lasting head. Creamy. Bread combined with some sweet notes in the aroma. Lemon too. Mild flavour with vague traces of wheat. It has an odd sweet note too which resembles fresh apple juice. Not a wheat bear judged by german og belgian standards. Quite drinkable nonetheless.
Draught: A very comfortable palate, smooth. Better.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
(Bottle 50 cl) Deep golden - bordering amber - with a small, creamy and dense head. Very soft and slightly sweet with a low carbonation. Marked, smooth wheaty touch, but nowhere similar to neither German nor Belgian wheats. Reminds me more of a pleasant, caramelish English strong ale. Very quaffable. 161101

From The Bottle,pale yellow,some citrus,I missed the wheat,Greene King,say no more.
2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottled. Clear yellow beer without much head. It hasn't the sharp cereal taste of a German wheat but as a drink in its own right its ok, lemon, tang, crisp, quite a thirst quencher. No big faults, no great pluses, a moderate drink.
2.1 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Funny bottle. Nice wide-opening. Improves the easy-drinking-proporties of the bottle. I would’nt call this a wheat beer. It is absolutely not a REAL wheat beer. The appearance is quite nice. It looks very, very refreshing. BUT it is’nt. It is a bitter imitation of the great German wheats. I should have known it. Englishmen are not meant to brew wheat beers. Sorry folks, but that’s how it is. Stick to the IPA, EPA, ESB, HSB and what the fuck you else call it.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
I hereby re-rate this beer lower than before. I still get nightmares about it... A wheat beer without the pleasant wheat characteristics. Not great - a (very) pale imitation.
2.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Reasonable appearence for an ale (but it is suppose to be a wheat beer). For my money it tastes like a chemically enhanced ale, rather than a wheat beer.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Fine head and a nice amber color. Tastes of honey, bisquit and cherries.
