Hazy blonde color with a thin white head. Aroma and flavor of wheat and citrus (lime I think). Full body, creamy texture, soft carbonation. Pretty good for a wheat beer ! Thanks to csbosox for sending this my way.

Batch 8992 thanks to daknole. Pours with a small white head and a hazed golden sunset body. Aroma is sweet with honey and wheat, some rotten orange, tang and light spice. Taste is pretty bland and basic. Some biscuit and light orange. Candied tangerine peel and cereal. It is light and refreshing, but not exciting. Light, watery.

Hint of hops aroma, cloudy, amber, a small cream coloured head. Malt and hops, with some caramel. Nicely balanced, sweet hoppy after taste. A nice one.

Pours a foggy darker yellow color with a medium white head. Aroma of yeast and light hops. Light bodied with flavors of hops and fruit but not in big doses. Finish is crisp and progressively bitter throughout the glass. I found this to be a little mundane but it was not too bad.

Very nice aroma, malty, with a decent flavor. A bit of bitterness balances out the hint of spice. Citrus aroma.

Very hazy; pale yellow. Creamy and soft, yet still crisp somehow. Clean malts, with notes of bread and light grains. Nips of lemon above and earthy yeast below. Not very exciting, but well made and refreshing.

Sampled at The Big Pour beerfest in Scottsdale AZ. Floral perfume, spice, and wheat aroma. Really nice wheaty flavours, rounded out by spices and gentle floral citrus notes. I like that I feel that I can sink my teeth into this a little, yet it remains crisp and refreshing.

Hazy gold pour with bright white head that dissipated to a thin ring in about a minute or so. The aroma is a blooming wheat field on a hot summer day after a noon rain shower. Could have been an afternoon rain shower too. Although there’s some malt sweetness in the aroma too. The flavor is sweet with malts and floral honey. I also get grainy malts beyond midway along with a big dose of floral hops.
