Commercial Description:
A tribute to the highly drinkable ""every day"" beers from French-speaking Belgium. Contains Belgian two-row pale malt and 7% wheat. This beer is lightly filtered with an earthy, spicy hop character from imported Styrian Goldings hops and a beautiful rich creamy head from the wheat. Dry quenching finish achieved by use of the traditional sour mash process

12oz bottle, at my cousin’s wedding. color is golden straw, just a little cloudy. white short thick foamy head. aroma is a little appleish, malty sweet and a little grainy. light yeast too. flavor is a llttle witty - some sweet wheat malt and a bit of bubblegum, then light yeast and faint spice. kind of bready finish. nice to celebrate a wedding on the second very hot and humid day of the year!

From bottle, pours out a dark yellow color with a fluffy white head. The flavoring is great, especially for a style of beer that often tastes of fake flavoring. This summer ale is sweet, but tastes more like a traditional pale ale, and thats why I like it more then those belgium style summer ales.

Thanks to Immy. From bottle, pours a copper/straw with fluffy white head and good lacing. Nose reminds me of a good lager, with spices and french vanilla. Flavors follows nose with a light bitter finish. Refreshing.

12 oz bottle bought at the brewery. Crystal clear dark yellow, fluffy white head. Nose is mildly sweet, some hay and light spices (clove?). Lively mothfeel. A light, sweet malt flavor with a mild spiciness. Finish was a touch of dryness. Nice summery beer.

"Nice summer beer, poured a nice golden color with an average white head. Just a little lacing. Tasted of citrus, not to strong and some hops, very well balanced beer. WOuld have again. "

12oz bottle via trade with Lou18 - Thanks Lou! Pours golden with a small white head. Aroma of grass and a bit of spice. Flavor is malty some yeast and a touch of spice. A bit of grassy hops finish this off. Palate is light and somewhat watery. Decent for a summer thirst quencher.

i like this summer ale, not my favorite summer beer though. i first discovered the summer ale at a bar we would go to after work. It served well for the occasion of just relaxing outside on a patio during the summer.
