Geeze, am I the only one that thinks Widmer is skunkweizen? The quality is only slightly better than Pyramid or even Blitz-Weinhard. Perhaps I'm spoiled...I get to drink the real-deal homebrew weizen (non-pasteurized and no "Lemon Pledge"). But for those of you that think Widmer is all that, I suggest you drive on down to Portland, get a stool at Gustav's Bier Stube, and ask for any of the bottled or on-tap import helles- or dunkelweizens (unfortunately, again pasteurized for your "safety"). You'll quickly realize that Widmer is run-of-the-mill...
Plus, and I know this is out of Widmer's hands (thank you, Washington State Liquor Control Board), but who makes a good weizen in a .333l bottle? IT HAS TO BE A HALF-LITER!
Okay, sorry about that outburst. Now I'm thirsty...
