Very fruity, as expected, and for a wheat beer, which I’m not a big fan, it was acceptable. Probably would not select on my own accord. Todeon (315), Sweden

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jun 7, 2008 From what I can remember of this beer (it’s been a while since I’ve tied it) it’s pretty good for the winter time. I’m not that into wheat beers but I tried it and it wasn’t bad. Dmalone102 (217), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jun 6, 2008 I had this on tap this evening while bowling (not that that matters). The Winter lager had a nice Amber color that I liked, but had no head. This was probably due to the glassware at the bowling alley, so I still gave it a 3 for appearance. If I were judging it against style, it doesn’t taste like a bock to me. If I were judging it as a continental lager, or a European dark lager, it would get big points. The malty flavor dominates, but it’s not too sweet. I drank it pretty quickly, so it must have been decent. For the record, it was the only beer that I had tonight, so I feel confident in my rating.
