[At Stockholm Beer Festival 2005] An orange beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has powerful notes of honey with the malt hiding in the background. The flavor is sweet honey combined with malt - the honey also brings with it notes of bees wax, and rosehips, and makes it a bit sticky in the mouth.

Bottled. Deep golden. sweet and fruity with notes of caraway. The mouthfeel is clean and simplistic and the bitterness low. Not overly exciting.

honoring General Jackson, clear golden, whispy off white head, sweet carmel malt aroma, rich carmel malt flavor with a good amount of floral hop flavor and a long bitter finish, a lot more character than I was expecting from bottles with different generals on each label

Copper brown, not much head. Dish water aroma: metallic, lemony, notes of toffee. Mild toffee-fruity hoppy flavor, slightly sweet. Light session-type body. Some chewy malts in the finish.

12oz bottle. Poured a medium golden color with an averaged sized white head. Aromas of lemon pledge mixed with dish soap. Tastes of wheat, spices and citrus. Tastes on the thin and weak side.

Kinda like dinking sweetened Wheaties with a bit o’ lemonade squirted on it. Nice golden body with a modest white head. The aroma’s probably the best part, soft wheat malt, honey, stone fruits, and a citrus tang. Drinkable, but if I want a wheat ale, there are better ones to chose from.

Golden color with a plastic off-white head. Flowery aroma with sweet wheat and honey in the background. Spritzy feel. Sugar covered wheat flake flavors along with a bit of fresh grass. A breakfast on the golf course comes to mind. Still not that enjoyable. Too thin, too sweet and too much an american wheat.
