(bottle): Pours a clear dark yellow body. Big foamy head, off-white and diminishing. Malty and effervescent aroma. Sweet smelling with some light fruit like apple or pear. Some maltiness present too. Light fruity taste, light body. Nutty aftertaste. Tasty and aromatic.

Bottle from BevMo. Clear golden color upon pouring. Slightly sweet grainy aroma. Smells like your average American Wheat. Tastes like a million other wheat ales. Grainy with a little bit of spiciness. Drinkable, but uninspired.

Very weak. Pale yellow hazy color. Nose is grass corn and slight citrus. Taste is sugar, adjuncts, and stale wheat. Goes down easy because the mouthfeel is watery.

12oz bottle. Wheat and honey aromas. Darker yellow than the noramal staw body color with white head. Starchy zesty soapy lemon flavors. Sticky sweet honey lingers for aftertaste. Blah.

Bottle. Dissappearing white head leaves an applejuice color body with the slightest bit of haze. Aroma of sweet corn and wheat. Tastes very grainy. Medium thin body is refreshing but has moderate carbonation prick and leaves a slightly bitter sliickness on the tongue.
