Jun 22, 2007 Updated: Jul 16, 20071 pint .9 fl oz bottle. Pour is a slightly cloudy yellow gold with some bubbles and a big white head slowly settling head. Aroma is initially wheat with some sweet fruitiness (cherries?). Taste is much brighter, tarter, and sweeter than I would have imagined. Taste is cherries, lime, lemon and finishing with a bit of wheat texture. This is my first beer of this style, and once I got over the shock of the taste, quite enjoyed it. A very tasty summer beer.

May 5, 2007 Large white head, good retention and lace. Nose is tart, spicey, citrusy, lemony and yeasty. Body is lightly medium with a tangy feel. Lightly doughy malts, citrus, juicey. Finish is dry, fruity and refreshing. Nicely tangy and tart. Groovy little brew!

Jul 28, 2007 Cloudy golden-yellow color with a dissipating white head. Aroma is subtly-banana-ey with some tart citrus, wheat/assorted sweet grains and maybe some light spices. Taste is tartly citrus with some smooth and sweet wheat flavors. Nice tingly mouthfeel and overall very refreshing. Probably the best you can find in the original style, but I can’t say its much above average overall.

Jun 12, 2007 Cloudy golden but very bright. Huge white head, fades, returns with a quick swirl. Lactis sourness up front, lemongrass, and faint yeasty wheat character. Flavor pretty much on par with aroma. Lactic tartness, sour lemon, light yeasty/wheat. Very soft mouthfeel, clean. Can see where people might mistake this for watered down. Very easy drink. Perfect summer session.

Jun 13, 2008 I didn’t really care for this one. Probably just don’t like the style. Pours a cloudy light yellow. Sour lemon aroma. Tastes like lemonade. Thin and carbonic.

Feb 22, 2008 Tried at Stuffed Sandwich for $7. A little steep, but I’ve been eager to try this for some time now. They sell it at HWC, but I haven’t been motivated to try it. I like sours, so I’m going to rate this higher than normal. Sourness is very mild. lower than I expected, actually lower than the 2006 St Ambrois barleywine I had yesterday. Light beer. Yellow color. soda like carbonation: Large bubbles floating to the top and popping. Smell is somewhat BMC-ish. Nice feel on the tongue. Easy to drink. Pretty decent. Kind of like a well made pale lager.

May 26, 2007 Bottle. Poured a hazy golden pale color with thin head. Funky aroma - sweaty gym socks, lots of funk. Flavor is funky hops, bananas, very sweet. A nice wheat character present. This was a ncie after dinner drink, very enjoyable. A little complexity going on.

Feb 2, 2009 Bottle. Pours a hazy and very carbonated yellow with some chunky floaters and a huge 4 finger snow white head that faded quickly. The nose is fruity with spice and light hops. Taste is sour wheat, sweet citrus and yeast with light fruity hops in the finish. Medium prickly mouth feel. Good brew, light and refreshing.
