Not bad. Shared a bottled with my lovely girlfriend. Poured a light clear-yellow very little head. Mild nose of tin and light hops. Flavor was very metallic and tart with a light hoppiness to it. Super light. I drank this like water. Yes, some citrus on the tail end. Finished crisp, very crisp.

The aroma is grainy, wheat. the appearance is piss yellow, white head. The flavor is very weak, light wheat, lightly malty, not remmarkable at all. The finish has a light bittering, from noble hops. Thin mouthfeel. At best, this is a passable lawnmower beer. Not good, but nothing too objectionable.

This was an uninteresting mass produced tasting wheat beer. Nothing special or worth talking about.

On tap at Max’s on Broadway. Light yellow golden pour with a thin white head. A bit of malt and hops on the nose. Flavor is super light, maybe can tell there’s some wheat in there. Straight up lawnmower beer, but that’s not a bad thing.

From a bottle poured a light clear golden color with a fair amount of head. Grassy almost pilsner flavor and finish.

12oz bottle. Pours a very weak thin clear yellow golden with some soda bubbles and a big frothy but thin white sudsy foam. Aroma is slightly metallic and sour, has a macro feel, something creamy too, yogurt or yeast, wet wheat/cereal. First taste is slightly metallic, light bitter hops, slightly tart lemon, seltzer water, hint of creamy wheat and yeast. Body is quite thin with lots of corse larger soda bubbles, fairly dry and watery. Not offensive but super boring.

12 ounce bottle courtesy of maniac. Pours a slightly hazy amber color with a thin head. Fair head retention and lacing. Nutty caramel aroma with some bread and toasty notes. Taste is citrus, bread, caramel, light leafy hops in the finish. Medium bodied. Fairly decent.
