2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20 bartlebier (464) - Baden-Württemberg, GERMANY - MAY 20, 2013
Aka Schneider Weisse Tap 3 Mein Alkoholfreies, just tried this to fulfill my TAP 1-11 completist’s fantasies, not to indulge in its 0,3% splendour. Like coffee with creamer instead of milk, Coke Light with aspartam, free verse, tennis without a net: I suppose this is decent for nearly ABV-free istotonic beverage and carries some basic elements that allow it to identify it as something familiar to the tastier version, but it remains a tribute to a culture fixated on Ersatz to accomodate those who hate to go without that which they have to do without.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 AshtonMcCobb (1456) - Edinburgh, SCOTLAND - MAY 16, 2013
33cl bottle from Appellation Wines. Pours dark amber and hazy with a very generous head. The nose has a hint of weizen but it’s light and very much closer to the dryness of lager. There is a hint of banana but very faint. The taste has a bit more of the creamy sweet notes you’d expect from regular weizen but not quite having the same body and sweetness. Overall, this is not bad for a non-alcoholic weizen.

Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass darker than exspected, nice head. Starts very mild, notes of bread and wheaty, mild-yeasty. Finish more and more moldy-malty. Nothing special.

Have had a number of times recently. A nice non-alcoholic drink and I’m sure that it’s the best alcohol free wheat beer I’ve tried so far.

Bottle. Pours hazy dark golden, with a big creamy head. Aroma Is yeasty, with some oaky notes, but with more than a whiff of metal to it. Fairly full body, with average carbonation. The flavour is just not very good, with sweet grain, and sweet and sour metallic notes all over.

Bottle. Pours opaque orange with a short lasting off white frothy off-white small head. Aroma is toasted bread, corn, cereal, wheat, sour tangerine, yeasty. Taste is light sweet, bitter and sour. Body is light, texture is watery, carbonation is medium+. Finish is short with sweet toasted malt and a mouth-coating minerality. This toasted cereal aroma I’m not really sure of what to make of.
