Smells malty. Deep amber, slight head. Sweet taste, where is the wheat? Sticky sweetness. Average.

The wheat lightens the body somehwat and allows you to "feel" the hops a little more, but overall this is but a step above the macros, brewed for drinkability. Ther is a nice finish to this beer which does make it more refreshing.

Dark straw in color, nice carbonation.Slightly lemon taste and medium light mouthfeel. Great if served chilled and please leave the lemon out, ruins head and presentation. Cheers

Thanks Osborne Freehouse. Grainy and malty sweet. Crisp like a wheat but not much wheat. Thin-medium mouthfeel.

Was not expecting such a European taste. Had this at the Freehouse in Winnipeg. Tasted great, but Wheat beers are never my favorite.

Clear urine with urinal foam head. Aroma and flavour are very sweet at cold temperatures. Bitter and noticeable alcohol at near room temperature. Boring, but very refreshing and enjoyable.

Draft. Far more interesting than I remember my first tasting in a bottle. Sweet, apple-like taste with a wheaty body. Still a little bland, but has a small amount of citrus kick to it. Not terribly interesting, but a pretty dependable option to go to in many Canadian bars.
