This unfiltered golden beer has a refreshing, crisp taste, and a hint of coriander, sure to keep you cool in the long, lazy days of summer. What better way to celebrate the independence of our nation, than with a TRUE American styled Wheat beer!

Bottle. Aroma seemed very citrusy, and almost a bit floral on first sniff. Body is on the thinner side, but not too watery. Little bit of bread/yeast flavor, but what really hit me was the citrus/fruit flavor. Maybe orange and strawberry. Very tasty and refreshing. I’ll defiantly be getting this again.

bought a growler of this, and drank it while i cut the grass- straight from the bottle. dark yellow color with a thin white head. taste is very refreshing and a tad bitter. fruity kind of flavor to be expected from a wheat beer. a good american wheat beer. these guys make good beers, i would like to see what they could turn an imperial stout into if we didnt have those fucking laws.

Bottle. Small white head. Pours a light yellow, hazy. In aroma, I can smell wheat malt and spice. Flavor is grainy, bready and crisp. Has decent bitter finish. Spices are in aftertaste as well as in the middle. Soft mouth feel. Fairly good.

Bottle. Aroma is mild and citrusy. The flavor is clean and easy to gulp down. Simple, clean and efficient. A decent American wheat without an bells and wistles.

On tap at the Flying Saucer in Charlotte. Poured a clear golden with a small white head. The flavor was dominated by oranges and coriander, with a nice crisp finish. A great wheat reminiscent of Sam Adams Summer - I hope it becomes more common around here.

Found this today at Lowe’s Foods in Cary. Slighly hazy gold pour with medium white head. Hopcit and wheat in the aroma, with a smooth, medium palated finish. A nice wheat beer.

Pours a golden color with a white head. Has no lacing. Has faint taste of wheat throughout beer. Has the best taste of wheat at finish.

Draught @ the brewery: This one pours a slightly cloudy, golden color. There was basically no head to it at all. And what was there died out immediately. There wasn’t much of an aroma to it either. The aroma was thin, with some hints of wheat and spices trying to be noticed. The taste is definitely light, with just some wheat, citrus and spice. This was somewhat thin, but still a bit refreshing.
