Definite watermelon smell, and taste. Easy drinking, bitterish watered down watermelon flavor. Ok, but not as good as I hoped it would be. just ok.

Aug 18, 2008 Pours a slightly hazy, golden hay color with a huge white head that leaves a bunch of lacing behind. A light, sweet, wheaty smell, not too phenolic with only a hint of sweet smelling fruit that could only be construed as watermelon when you know to look for it. Taste is similar to the smell with a bit more discernible watermelon presence but not much more. A very dry finish to a refreshing but not incredibly impressive beer. Its a good summer beer but after having already gone through about 6 real watermelons this summer it just didn’t live up to expectations.

Aug 16, 2008 Thanks to Golubj for the can! Hazy gold pour, off-white head, and a nice spotty lace. Leathery citrus type aroma. Thin bodied a slightly watery mouth-feel with a grainy flavor up front. Big watermelon finish with a touch of acid. I think this beer maybe slightly underated.

Aug 14, 2008 12 ounce can purchased at BevMo in Vacaville. Aroma has plenty of yeast esters that create a banana-like aroma. I also get a little citrus lemon and the watermelon aroma is also delicately intertwined. A little bit sweet, and a little bit sour. This is a complex and interesting aroma. Moderately hazy golden body with a small, pretty quickly dissipating white head. Starts a bit acidic and rather astringent. There is an underlying wheat body, but this is very difficult to find. It comes through late after the sour, astringent, acidic watermelon flavors dissipate. I think the watermelon flavor is a bit too strong initially. Creative.

Aug 10, 2008 lighty golden color with a big light white head. Aroma is very strong of wheat and yeast slight watermelon hints in there. taste was a bit bland and watered down, with a hint of a watermelon but an overbearing wheat water.

Aug 10, 2008 Can courtesy of tpd975. Pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma of wheat, watermelon, and citrus. When the beer hits the tip of my tongue I get a hint of watermelon that disapears almost intantly and lends way to citrus and wheat. Medium thin mouthfeel with a mild amount of bitterness and slightly tart finish. Good.
