kflorence (93), San Diego, California, USA May 21, 2008 Updated: May 22, 2008Bottle. Smells fruity, lemons and oranges mostly, with some hints of wheat and blueberry. Tastes very sweet, probably the sweetest beer I’ve ever had. ThaBobfather is right, it does taste like fruity pebbles. It’s a good flavor, but kind of weird for a beer I must say. The oranges, lemon and blueberry flavor come out as soon as it hits your tongue... perhaps a bit too strong as it overpowers the wheat, malts and yeast. You can hardly taste the hops, but the yeast does come through a bit more at the end. Very smooth on the tongue, and the citrus flavor lingers around after you’re done. Not bad, but as others have said you can only drink a few before the sweetness gets to you. kevd193213 (477), Hope Valley, Rhode Island, USA May 20, 2008 Draught. Aroma of lemon, yeast and bubble gum. Taste of sweet spices and malt with a thin sweet finish. Can’t have more than 1 or 2, really sweet. ThaBobfather (178), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA May 15, 2008 This tastes like fruity pebbles. No joke. Unfortunately, it tastes really artificial. Too much spice and I really can’t drink more than a couple before it’s over powering. LooseCannon (914), Norfolk, Virginia, USA May 14, 2008 Thanks Immy. 12oz bottle. Pours cloudy golden in color with white head. Aroma wheat and spicey. Taste is about the same as the aroma with light blueberry with a dry finish. Rynoplasty (500), Louisville, Kentucky, USA May 14, 2008 Pours hazy golden brown with a decent sized off white head. Aroma is citrusy, spicey and flowery. Taste is mainly citrus and spice as well and a little malted wheat, not bad but not great. jeffwilliams11 (310), hooterville, Michigan, USA May 12, 2008 smells like fruit loops. very sweet aroma and flavor. mild spice in the aftertaste. goldmember (8), Great Falls, Montana, USA does not count May 12, 2008 Not a big fan of this style but bought a 6’er anyway. Pour looks inviting....after taking a sip....whoah! Tastes like drinking the milk at the bottom of a bowl of fruit loops. Way too sugary for my taste. Ended up dumping the rest down the sink. Blue moon is much better of an offering. CelticBrew (676), The Crystal Coast, North Carolina, USA May 11, 2008 Pours from 12 oz bottle a hazed, tawny yellow w/ a medium sized, spattered froth. Head fades fast leaving a full ring residual lace and a dusty canopy. Aroma is bright w/ fresh citrus. Light nectar w/ ample mellow residual effers. Flavour is moderately sweet and lightly bitter with a short duration. Palate is light bodied and watery flat. Good looking and refreshing wheat beer but way too fruity. Great for hot summer days and perhaps lawn duty. Overall, not too bad, but not my style of beer.
