TaxiDriver (908), Stadland, Germany Oct 15, 2009 Bottle. The aroma is very fruity (grapefruit), later on some sour smell appears, overall very refreshing. The white fizzy head stays not very long, the body is clear and orange. The taste is rather sour and medium fruity. The finish is light bitter. The body is dry and fizzy, the finish is more creamy. Carbonation is normal, the body is medium strong. A nice unusual beer. Lalli (149), Helsinki, Finland Oct 15, 2009 0,5l bottle. Murky orange color with medium head. Hoppy and citric nose, a slight touch of sour milk, perhaps? Flavor is tremendous; weizen combined with brave usage of tasty hops makes a splendid and exciting new kind of brew. First time I had it was at Schneiders own pub i Munich, and it was (and still is) a great beer experience. gyllenbock (238), Stockholm, Sweden Oct 15, 2009 Bottle. Cloudy, orange color. Large white head. The aroma is pretty exciting, it smells fruits especially apricot, spices and yeast also some fragrance of soap.
The flavor offers citrus, hops, yeast, dough and also some banana. Bitterness is significantly higher compared to "normal" wheat beer. Clearly an interesting beer. bacchanalia (66), milton, Cambridgeshire, England Oct 14, 2009 Pours a deep murky orange/brown, with a nose to die for. Wafts of perfume, spice, banana, mango, toffee, just brilliant. I could sit & sniff this all night like a sad twat. The drinking though is slightly dissapointing for me, the palate is nice full, there is some nice fruit & lots of perfume, but the alcohol keeps poking its nose in. You think its going to develop into a full lush beer, but this slight dry acrid character keeps overpowering. A shame, but my nose is in heaven. Bov (5403), Bienne, Switzerland Oct 12, 2009 courtesy of Laurent Mousson - fully cloudy dark orange colour with some chaotic head retention; aroma of glue, litchies and melon; solidly hoppy; solid but subtle carbonation; quite sticky, sweet with a decent bitterness, good malt body; long aromatic hoppy finish with more fruity notes and some warming alcohol touch - very good! CUJO (339), Brooklyn, New York, USA Oct 11, 2009 500ml: tulip: enjoyed with my bro... great beer. Very light, bright and crisp.... loads of citrus and cloves, nice spice and sweet balance. The carbonation was medium to high and helped carry this beer along. Great warming esters on the finish... great reference to BK on this one... BeerHawk (1175), Huntsville, Alabama, USA Oct 11, 2009 Bottle. Poured a cloudy orange with a creamy white head. Floral aroma with a wheat and light malt background. The flavor found floral, citrus, wheat, and clove. Light to medium body, tingly carbonation, and a citrus and heat aftertaste. Archibaldo de la Cruz (394), Finland Oct 5, 2009 Bottle. Hazy deep orange colour with a medium-sized off-white head. Hoppy aroma with notes of wheat, citrus and some other fruits. The flavour is wheat and fruity hops, with some citrus, spices and malt. Medium-bodied and high carbonation. Very interesting brew, but maybe not my favourite weizen.
