Bottle thanks to OldStyleCubFan (summer santa). This sure is a summer beer, a refreshing wheat beer with almost no flavor. Golden orange color with fluffy head. Aroma of malts and citrus. Taste is of malts and watery rye. It is smooth with little to no carbonation. nice to have tried this beer, thanks OldStyle.

12 oz bottle from Emacgee. Hazy golden in color with a small off white head. Aroma of wheat, spice and citrus. Taste is tangy wheat, some spice, citrus, with a medium body. Very light bitterness in the finish. clean and not too bad.

Date: 08/15.08, 12 oz. bottle

Aroma - Light biscuit, faintly floral, hint of spice

Appearance - Cloucy gold, medium white head that is creamy, and although not very large, does last nicely, strands of persisting lace

Flavor - Fruity and light malty sweetness up front, hint of sourness and a distant spicy bitterness in the finish, although the finish is neutral

Palate - Light body, medium carbonation, fairly clean palate, but not quite dry enough for me.

Overall - Pretty decent, but not outstanding. Light, some refreshing qualities. Nice to see a new offering from Highland.

12 oz. Hazy, golden pear-colored with a lasting inch of meringue. Beautiful creamy lace all over the glass. Typical wheat, spicy yeast and citrus aroma. Typical American Wheat flavor of ash, sour stomach acid, wheat and drying lemon hop. Maybe some slight banana bubblegum. Light-medium body is easy on the carbonation, watery and finishes dry.
