Courtesy of stfun. Pours a slightly hazy gold with a white head. Smells citrussy with some wheat undertones. Tastes of lemons with some perfume and touches of wheat.

Drinking from a bottle of Flat Top: This pours a slightly hazed pale yellow body with a dinkus fizzy head that dematerializes rather quickly. It smells of Wheaties, old straw, and a squirt of lemon juice. Highly carbonated and spritzy in the mouth, it tastes like wheat flakes, dried grass, and lemon. Not one I’d care to repeat.
RATING #3456!!!!!

Draft sampler at Barley Island. Golden color pour with a small white head that diminished quickly. Moderate sweet wheat aroma. Light body with a thin texture. Light sweet flavor with a smooth wheat finish. Soft summer brew.

Bottle. A very slightly opaque gold with a bright white head. The aroma has some notes of wheat bread and almonds. There is not much else going on in the nose. The taste has some light notes of pears and tomato soup. Bland and boring, not as bad as many American Wheats, with a hint of lemon zest in the finish.

A 12-oz bottle shared by joebrew. Pours a golden pale blonde brew with a thin off-white head that dissolves to a fine film. Aroma of sweet corn, a touch of wheat and straw hops. Taste is lightly carbonation, medium body with loight wheat taste. No yeast flavor or even in the aftertaste. The palate is tingly on tongue with a smooth and thin character. Finish is clean cut, with a slight sweet aftertaste. A unique wheat beer that is more like a multi-grain with a lager character.

This brew poured a medium head offinely sized mostly lasting bubbles that left a fair lacing and a transparent carbonated golden colored body behind. It had a smooth bubbly mouthfeel. This brew did not taste like a wheat beer to me. It was much more thin on it flavor with notes of bread and it was slightly acidic. Its weak mouthfeel made it seem more like a soda pop/

First of all, this did not taste anything like a Wheat beer as it tasted more like a Lager.The head was white, small sized with fine sized bubbles.The body was clear with carbonation and the hue was yellow.The flavor was bitter, sour and somewhat tart.The mouthfeel was tingly on my tongue and it was smooth and thin.
