Pours gold with a white head. Smells and tastes of faint wheat, lysol and pepper. Not a fan of this.

From a bootle poured straw color with a fair amount of head. Nice light hoppy flavor with a quick finish.

Surprisingly good, a little more happening than many Summers but not overdone. light and refreshing but witha decent hit of hops and enough backbone to make things interesting.

Simple beer with not a lot going on. Light bodied and drinkable. Mild wheat and diluted hops. No spice. Weak citrus finish. Well balanced, but a little watery. Needed extra body to be a good beer.

Cloudy, golden/amber appearance with a medium size head and nice lacing. Grassy aroma with a citrus edge. Surprizingly hoppy flavor but the wheat dilutes the bitterness in the aftertaste. Medium-to-light bodied, decently carbonated mouthfeel with an average length finish.

Golden pour with large white head. Aroma of lemon and hops taste was very lemony and citrusy like a typical summer ale. Decent.

Pours a golden yellow with a thick white head. Nose of lemon, pine, and floral. Taste is of a decent summer ale with the usual lemon, wheat and sweetness. Moderate carbonation. Works just fine for hanging out with friends and cooking on the grill.
