12oz bottle obtained at Hannaford in Derry. Pours a hazy golden body with a thin film of short-lived off-white head. Smells faintly of lemmon grass, grapefruit, and spice. Tastes (surprisingly) strongly of orange and lemon, with some spice to round out the flavor, and a clean finish. Light-bodied with ample carbonation. I’m actually impressed! This is much better than I was expecting and I’d take this over a regular Bud Light (BL?) any day of the week.

Jan 1, 2010 Drinking Bud Light’s Golden Wheat is akin to be popped in the mouth with a bucket full of oranges. There is a tart zing that overwhelms the taste of the alleged wheat flavor. A fizzy beer - as to be expected - that summons up thoughts of lemon pie filling and sour Jolly Ranchers. I’m sure that, with this type of anticlimactic beer flavor, Bud Light Golden Wheat could double for a poor man’s Arnold Palmer. You’d be better off sucking up the calories of a hefeweizen if you wanted an adequate wheat beer.

Dec 31, 2009 Nice looking profile. Hazed golden straw body sporting a sizable, fluffy white head. Very watery and thin. Wheat malt is almost undetectable but as a bonus the rice is also subdued. Spice Is minimal. I was very thisty and this was more refreshing than the crappy iced tap water.

Dec 30, 2009 Interesting beer. My friends who are not as into beer as I am describe it as ’a poor man’s blue moon’. Its really not a terrible wheat, and definitely better than bud light.

Dec 29, 2009 Pours a nice hazy golden orange with medium off-white head. Aroma consists of harsh orange peel. Flavor reveals a corriander taste with a bit of a wheat and glimpses of bud light general flavor. All in all I say impressive for a wheat beer with 102 calories.

Dec 27, 2009 A hazy golden pour with medium golden head. It has a citrus and wheat aroma that matches the sweet taste. The body is light and lively with a thin texture and clean finish.

Dec 26, 2009 Not a terrible beer but not spectacular either. I could see drinking these very cold on a hot summer day and they would be refreshing.

Dec 22, 2009 Light, slightly sweet, a tiny bit of citrus, some wheat and yeast. Not bad, but nothing fantastic.
