Oct 4, 2007 Appearance: Pours a very clear, pale gold body a thin, white ring of bubbles.
Smell: Beyond the lemon and butter, there’s only a meager amount of maltiness to the aroma.
Taste: Faint malt flavor with an impossibly thin hint of lemon. But a lot of butter in there, though! That’s one thing they don’t skimp on. There’s a light grassy bitterness on the finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation. Slick, though watery mouthfeel.
Drinkability: All of the Northwoods beers seem to fall far outside of even the loosest definitions of the styles they’re trying to represent.

Jun 21, 2007 Picked up single 12-oz bottle from brewpub. Pours a clear golden pale blonde brew with an average off white head that dissolves to a fine film and white ring. Nice lacing. Aroma of some flowery hops, light wheat malt and a touch of yeast and banana. Taste is highly carbonated, a touch of sourness on the tongue with a dry flowery hot finish. Palate is slightly watery.

Mar 23, 2006 Pours golden yellow with white head. Weak grains and floral hops on the nose with a flavor to match. Better than most of their stuff, but much worse than a lot of everything else out there.

Nov 26, 2005 golden tiny white head. Light wheat some hints of floral hop very light. Ok body not much there. Bland some sweet whet touch of floral hop.. very boring.

Aug 19, 2005 Claims to be unfiltered, but it’s really qutie remarkably clear for an unfiltered beer. Marginally hazy at best. Nose sweet, some vanilla and yeastiness. Flavor is very malty, berry sweet. Some banana to it, but not hugely wheaty. Also a bit hoppier than expected. Not a normal wheat, but not bad.

Jul 12, 2005 Lightly hazed pale straw color with a ring of white bubbles on the rim of the glass. Very light aromas of light orange zest. Mild flavors of sweet citrus and a hint of wheat. Fairly bitter from a lack of balance.

Apr 18, 2005 Slighly hazy gold color with no head. Absolutely zilch for aroma and taste. Nothing. Nadda. Goose egg.
