Commercial Description:
The brewmaster's goal: the perfect ale for summertime quaffing, nothing more. SummerBright is the result. The craftsman's touch combines white wheat, two row pale and munich malt with the pacific northwest's most intriguing hops to create a bright, clean ale ideal for picnicking, evenings on the screen porch and enjoying the whims of the summer breeze.

The perfect beer for summertime. The aroma is fruity, while the flavor is smooth and light-bodied. Easy to drink, and even easier to enjoy.

Very good, awesome beer. Perfect taste, nice and light. Not just a summer ale, great for any time of the year, especially on a cold and snowy day. Get it if you can!

Draft. Pours an orange copper with a white head. Hoppy pine grapefruit chewy tawny hop resins. Really nice fresh apa.

12oz bottle. Pours a hazy yellow gold with a thin finely-bubbled head. The aroma is very wheaty with a fresh floral touch of hops and bready, malted wheat. The flavor starts very wheaty, bready, and malty with a subtle touch of spice (fresh baked cookies with hints of nutmeg). There is also a light touch of floral hops. The finish is spicy with a crackery malt character and a nice balance of malted wheat and soft noble hops. The mouthfeel is medium in body with a light spritziness. Overall, a very refreshing, flavorful, tasty, well-balanced American wheat beer. I think this is beer is quite underrated - the average score is much lower than I would have expected.

There is a light wheat aroma and flavor to this beer,which is good for the summer. The straw yellow, almost cloudy appearance is nice for a summer, wheaty ale.

Poured an attractive orange-yellow with a fair bit of activity, but a small head. The aroma is fairly wheaty; the flavor fairly full for a wheat ... fruity and floral with a mandarin orange sweetness to top it off. Enjoyable.

Interesting beer. I could detect none of the traditional wheat aromas, banana/cloves. What I did smell were lemons. Appearance is slightly cloudy with a small head. Taste is clean and refreshing, again with a touch of lemon. Finished dry with a slight astringency. A great summer beer.

Bottle at Dr. Kevin’s house, Colorado Springs, during the A&M/Baylor game. Pours a hazy gold with decent carbonation. Aroma is tangy grapefruit with hints of orange. Flavor has a subtle lemon presence as well as coriander and orange. Palate is a bit on the watery side, but it coats. Very refreshing and light. Awesome summer brew!
