faintly sweet (banana) and citrusy aroma with a little spice background. cloudy orangsih gold pour with frothy sticky head. banana sweet and slight spice with a very slight hoppiness. smooth and creamy, and very refreshing...not entirely complex or over the top...but very good, and especially refreshing

Draft - Hazed gold, creamy white head. Light honey wheat and citrus aromas warm to a touch of grassiness. Faint bready wheat and citrus flavors balance each other well. Light bodied with soft carbonation. Decent for a lawn mower chugger...

Aroma of alcohol. Golden clear with small white head. Ever so slightly bitter. Wheat taste. Fair

The flavor is corn and wheat mingling with lemon zest and lightly accented grapefruit with clover hops and honeysuckle coming through in the finish. Nice.
