Jul 15, 2002 For me, probably McNeills least impressive beer, but I live near High Point and Ramstein is among the Worlds class. This is filtered and I don’t usually like that, but it may be the worlds best plain light beer.

Aug 22, 2004 Lightly clouded golden color with a medium sized, tight and creamy head with nice lacing on the glass. Crisp and dry grainy wheat taste. Very biscuity and doughy taste, light lemony citrus, average mouthfeel. very refreshing, but thats about it.

Aug 7, 2005 Tap @ McNeill’s. Light gol color. Not as bad as I’d expected. Flavor is tasty with some lemon/lime that makes it refreshing throughout.

Jul 23, 2005 Nice cloudy pale yellow color with no head. Aroma is somewhat promising, drawing strength from lemons, bananas, cloves, vanilla and whole wheat bread. First flavor impression is that this is more in line with a pilsner. Pale, musky malts with a dense biscuit character, transitioning to a sourdough follow-through. Some substantial herbal qualities as well. Bolder and fuller than other beers classified as a wheat. Big time malts, and musky pils all the way. Faint hints at honey and banana make this a partial candidate for the wheat bill but it stops there. However, as a pils, it’s up there with the best of them. Thanks to tpkenned for getting this rarity for me!

Jun 6, 2003 Cookie fruity nose. Light golden color. Starts with a light grainy malt taste, then finishes with a familiar Mcneills bitterness. I'm not a big wheat drinker,but certainly a good summer ale. Not a classic wheat.

Jul 7, 2003 Pours a slightly cloudy golden yellow, with a copious frothy head. Aroma is very american, with little esteriness, and a sort of crisp feel. Flavor is light and dry. Slight yeastiness, with very little esters, besides a strange kiwi fruit flavor. Odd. Sort of bland, like american wheat tends to be.
