Handwritten notes: I love things that are cleverly named. Half Pints "Weizen Heimer" is an hilarious name. But this name I don't get. I like this beer, though. Maybe I've had a long day, but the grapefruit is subdued, the body is nice and minerally, and smooth. It has almost the feel of an English Ale. What the fuck does "mouthfeel" mean? I hear it a lot but (besides being an evocative phrase) is meaningless. How about these descriptors instead:

1. "throat punch" - bitterness

2. "liver smile" - lower ABV

3. "Eye shiatzu" - appearance

4. "nose likey" - aroma.

Huh? Huh? Uh.
