Commercial Description:
An American version of the Belgian style. This unfiltered beer has a striking translucent, golden color with white clouds. Seemingly a contradiction in terms, it has a full body mouth-feel but is surprisingly light to drink. Topped with a hint of citrus, provided by Coriander and a secret blend of Humbolt herbs, this beer is slightly sweet and a delight to drink in any season.

Clear pale ale like pour with a little head that hangs around, leaving a little lacing. Good wheat beer flavor, with a good finish.

Pour is a clear gold / light amber with a medium fizzy white head. Aroma of wheat, grass, and lemon zest. Flavors of citrus, grain, herbs, and floral hops. Pretty nice refreshing beer.

Bottle. Pours hazy golden yellow with a thin white head. It has a very subtle grassy aroma with some zest and a very distant herbal tea note. The flavor is herbal up front, with some corriander, sage, and some spice I never did identify. Soem maltier notes emerge in the middle, with a mild candy-sweetness and some coarse grain. Tangerine and lemon zest manifest themselves in the finish, with a touch of bergamot orange. It leaves a dry, zesty, slightly spicy aftertaste.

Bottle. Yellow color with a creamy, fruity, sweet, slightly hoppy taste. Average white beer.

Very light gold and totally filtered. A frothy head. Smells of lawn and citrus. Taste is a blend of fruit and flax and hemp. Very watery, however. May not visit again.

Bottle. Pours weak yellow with lively carbonation. Aroma percolates strawberry and grass. Flavor abounds with sweet lemon and a floral finish. Surprisingly thick mouthfeel. Nice surprise. I’ll buy more.

Clean citrus aroma accompanied by spice and hemp? Golden color with tiny bubbles and a tiny white head that quick dissipates. Starts with a herbiness reminiscent of Humboldt hemp, though not nearly so strong. Mouthfeel is medium. There is continuing bitterness in the finish, but it does ot seem to be from hop. Note the commercial description does not mention hop. I vote for hemp.

Pours a very pale tan, almost like a pale ale, with little head that disappears rather quickly. Has a strong citrus scent, almost like fresh lemons. Taste matches the scent, very citrusy, no bitter hop. It lacks some of the normal Belgian White spice and bite. Kind of bland. Washes the tongue with light carbonation and a creamy fluid, true with all Belgian Whites. All in all, refreshing, not a bad beer, but falls a little short of the Belgian White category...
