| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | May 11, 2009 Tap @ Amsterdam Ale House, NYC. Pours a clear gold with a fizzy, off-white head. Aroma is very wheaty, though grassy and hop notes were in there as well. Taste was very subdued, alternating between an earthy/grassy characteristic and a hop/wheat finish. It seemed a bit muddled for my taste; maybe I was just expecting something else. LiebeBier (793), Annapolis, Maryland, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 9, 2009 Incredibly refreshing beer with hints of fruit in the flavor but subtle enough to not overwhelm and let the excellent hop balance shine. BeerBunker (613), Burbank, Illinois, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | May 8, 2009 12oz bottle from Archer Liquors. Pours a clear golden color with a small, fizzy off-white head. Aroma is of hops, spice, wheat, and grass. Actually smells rather promising. Doesn’t taste very promising though. Taste is of faint hops, wheat, grass, and lemon zest. Has some slight spiciness to it. Mouthfeel is light and very carbonated. Way too bland for a summer beer. Bah, better beers to be had.

Aroma of light hops and some wheaty, grassy notes. Banana...Light in texture. Wheat with a slightly bitter aftertaste. Not a bad summer beer, I would buy again. coharahawk (87), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 29, 2009 On tap at Barcade. Pours a clear golden/orange. Aroma is ligh citrus, yeast, and mild hops. Flavor is similar with a tiny bit of noticable malt background. Finishes without much punch. A very basic beer. This is probably the least favorite beer from Southern Tier that I’ve had. rocbyter (921), Waterbury, Connecticut, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Apr 27, 2009 Yeast and wheat aroma. Slightly sweet smell. Hazy golden color with a small white head. Mild bitterness in the beginning with a sweet finish. Palate is weak in the ending. j12601 (1308), Poughkeepsie, New York, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 25, 2009 Bottle. Pours a clear golden amber with a medium white head. Nice wheat aromas with a hint of citrus. Medium bodied, slightly sweet. Finishes almost empty with a little grain flavor, almost a touch of citrus, and a bit of bitterness. Needs a little more citrus at the end (and I’d rather not have to supply the wedge of lemon to do it), and this would be a nice easy drinking lawnmower beer. As is, it’s a little weak. jaymobrown (1360), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Apr 17, 2009 Decent. Definitely a summer beer. This is good for porch sitting days. Crisp, clean. Some malts with a bit of hops. Nicely balanced. Short finish. A bit of lemon zest gives it a brightness. Looking to toss back some and hang outside on a nice Spring or Summer day? This will fit the bill nicely.
