On tap at Legends - Notre Dame. Poured a cloudy golden color with a fairly well-sustained white head. Aroma was citrusy, with some grass noted. Beer was well-carbonated, and the flaver came mostly from citrusy, grassy, and wheaty hops. Light-to-medium malt backbone. Pleasant hop finish.

Bottle from the brewery. Refreshing, particularly in Indian Summer day. Pleasant malty aroma on a medium yellow body with a lot of white creamy head, that leaves droplets of lace. Creamy mouthfeel, easy drinking above average mouthfeel. Pleasant beverage throughout, wheat well integrated, mild bitterness that finishes a tad sweet from wheat.

Bottle (12oz). Shared with blankboy and tupalev, my bottle. Poured hazy deep yellow with a decent diminishing white head, lots of white chunkies in the bottom. Slightly sour malt, dry wheaty grain, yeast; mild. Pretty ehh taste, grainy malt, a little harsh and slightly sour; thinnish mouthfeel, sharply lively yet not too carbonated, astringent - more a generic macro-style lawnmower ale than a wheat.

Pours a hazy pastel yellow-orange body with a moderate white head. Aroma is mostly fruit accented yeastiness - mild citrus and maybe banana - with a bizarre sort of sour undercurrent that I can only describe as stale elementary school student vomit. This sounds harsh, but its the best thing I could come up with to describe what is in actual fact not that bad. Just a bit of a... wheaty? bite in the background. Pleasant medium-thick palate. Flavour is refreshing and restrained yet still subtly complex. Otherwise sweet profile is balanced by the bitterness with a wheaty bite to it. Finish vaguely reminds me of some of the Unibroue products. Thanks for this bottle Obisbeer.

Light gold color. Medium head. Aroma is fruity and sweet. A medium bodied American Wheat ale. Malts are fruity and slightly sweet. Hops are fairly floral. Well balanced. Very nice wheat beer. Light and refreshing. Flavorful wheat beer. Very nice. Mild tasting yet, so well constructed wheat beer. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.

This brew poured a very large invigorated head of finely sized white bubbles and a cloudy orange unfiltered yeasty body. It had a hop aroma and was slightly fizzy in its start while coming to a smooth finish with its mild hop flavor.

Bottle pours a golden orange summer unfiltered wheat ale. The wheat gives the one a weak body perfect for some summer yardwork. Flavor is some orange, honey, wheat, and spice.
