Commercial Description:
Our take on the classic summer wheat beer...it’s a light, crisp ale for mowing lawns, hitting lazy fly balls and communing with nature. Glowing like brilliant rays of golden sun, its malty sweetness finishes tart and crisp. Hocus Pocus is best appreciated with a wedge of orange. Offered as a sacrifice to cloudless days.

Pours a medium amber color, darker than I expected, with an impressively thick white head. Aroma is also surprisingly hoppy, much more assertive than I anticipated. Definite lemony wheaty scent, dry and a touch hoppy citric. The hops and lemon flavors work very very well together. Flavor is much less hoppy than the aroma would indicate, although hops come through somewhat in the middle and finish lightly in the end, providing a very pleasant clean dry finish when coupled with the wheat malt. Very very slight clove taste. Flavor is mostly crisp and dry wheatiness, with little in the way of esters. Body is light, carbonation is definitely active. While i wouldn't really like this any other time of the year, this is definitely lawn-mowing beer. Not bad, better than I expected. It's no german hefe, but it did the trick today.

this beer reminds me of being 18 and drinking this a few times with my friend thinking we were cooler than a bunch of other kids because they drank bud light all the time (we were the cool kids)... light and refreshing, goes down easy with hints of lemon and orange. average half citrusy wheaty, yeasty beer. bonus points for nostalgia!!

Cloudy golden color with a fluffy head. Aroma is a bit light, wheat and a hint of spice. Flavor has a mellow fruit aspect with some yeast. Light and refreshing.

Poured a deep hazy gold, with a decent amount of head. Tasted pretty sweet with a nice fruity touch. Not much carbonation. Overall it’s not a bad beer at all, and I wouldn’t mind having another.

This was light, not very tart. Watery, mostly tasteless, unmemorable. Nothing horribly offensive in there, just generally nothing at all.

Overall Impression: Haven’t had this one for a for a while, but I remember it being a relatively average to below average Wheat Ale...

Bottle. Part of a Magic Hat mix pack. A good wheat beer but not one that I was really that into.
