Jun 21, 2008 On tap at the North Wales location. 12oz glasses tasted side x side with and without the syrup (rating done on the one without). Poured a light yellow color wtih a small sized white head. Aromas of citrus (lemons) and lightly wheaty. Tastes of the same. Very light tart finish (I would have preferred this one to be way more tart). Thin body.

Mar 11, 2007 Updated: Jun 14, 2009Tap at the brewpub in July 2008: Pours a hazy pale golden with a thin, wispy-lacing white head. Authentic aroma of fresh squeezed lemon citrus with some mild bready wheaty notes. Body starts very fizzy and light revealing a touch of wheaty sweetness before giving way to a puckering citric tartness and a dry, crisp finish. Very true to style and enjoyable.

Aug 6, 2008 Growler shared by kmweaver. Proper cloudy lemon yellow body with a white head. Soft lemon and sweet, creamed wheat nose, some funky BO for sure, comes across as sort of a bile/vinegar note. Flavor is intensely puckery and sour, straight acid, yum! Almost resembles straight lemon juice, but there’s development of some orange and soft wheat notes in the back. Not exceedingly deep or complex, but damn good for what it is.

Pale yellow, nice head and lacing. Nose of moldy socks, cheese, warm milk. The flavor is chewy, like halfway spoiled milk. Lightly tart, some hop. Blech, no good.

Jul 8, 2006 Draft at Media. Hazy gold/dark straw pour with aroma of pale malt, hopcitrus, including some orange zest and lemon grass. The flavor was malty at firt, then the citrus kicked in, and a lemony, orange zesty tartness, coupled with a bit of earthy Niagara winey notes. Nice complexity. I don’t think I could define this style in a blind taste test.
