| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Dec 12, 2008 Bottle. Orange/lemon colored pour, very effervescent, looks like a colored Sprite with the amount of carbonation bubbles you can see in this thing. Small white head dissipates almost immediately. Smells faintly of wheat, citrus fruits, some grassy notes and not much else. Very biting on the tongue thanks to the carbonation, as expected from the appearance. Rolling to the back picks up some sweet notes. Notes of citrus, bitter rinds, wheat and grass. Thin bodied, but helped out a big by the sensation and pain from the carbonation. Finishes with a bite, then devolves into a watery grave. Interesting attempt, but average, or below, overall.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 17, 2009 Bottle. Pale yellow-gold body. Short, white head, quickly diminishing. Aroma of lemon, citrus, grain with hints of Band-Aid, plastic. The flavor is lightly to moderately sweet, lightly bitter, lightly to moderately tart. It finishes lightly sweet, lightly bitter and moderately tart. Light to medium body, watery texture, fizzy carbonation. The flavor is better than the aroma. The tastes of lemon and citrus translate into a tart finish. sigma23 (240), , Maine, USA

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 14, 2009 12oz bottle from a trade on BA - thanks, Stephen! Brighter pour than I’d imagined, with a crisp carbonation and a sharp yeasty nose. Citrus and mild spices in the nose too. Body is medium, decently carbonated, although the finish is a bit abrupt. Flavor is failry average, though certainly less offensive than I often find this style. Citrus is there, spice fades into the background fairly quickly, and it gets a bit too grassy. But it’s certainly passable overall. Ughsmash (4098), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Oct 13, 2009 Bottled. Poured clear, bright golden with a creamy cap of off-white head.. looked quite nice. The aroma picked up an abundance of salt and limey notes with lesser bready yeast.. soft pale malts beneath. The flavor had a richer feel from the malts, with bread joined by a hint of vanilla at the core.. mostly sweet (but still a touch sour) lime and salt surrounded and rode out the finish.. simple and quite refreshing. Light-medium bodied with creamy carbonation and feel on the palate.. just a little too sweet and salty, but otherwise an entirely serviceable brew. bleeng (600), Spring near Beersel, Texas, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Sep 16, 2009 Bottle thanks to daknole. Pours bright hazy yellow with a creamy white head. Nose is lemony, citrusy, wheaty, and spicy. Taste is very spicy upfront, with a huge citrusy flavor. Light body but a lame finish. Overall not too bad and drinkable on a hot humid day. swoopjones (1925), Buffalo, New York, USA
