Thanks to bullzeye. Look is golden in color, cloudy, and has a white head. Smell is watermelon, candy like, sweet, malts, wheat, and fruits. Taste is watermelon, medium body, some malts, and wheat.

12 oz. can courtesy of golubj. Pours a hazy golden color with a medium white head. The aroma is wheat grass with a tart watermelon citrus blend. The flavor was more of the same: wheat grass, watermelon citrus with the rind thrown in. I*m sure this could be refreshing for some on a hot day, but it*s not for me.

12 oz can. Pours a nice golden color with frothy white head. Watermelon is apparent but not overpowering at and lingers through the finish. Hops were barely apparent but would probably overpower the delicate watermelon if kicked up . Interesting creation.

12oz can from iowaherkeye. Poured a slightly hazy light orange color with a foamy white head. Smelled of watermelon candy, yeasty bread dough, and a touch of sour fruit. There were also whiffs of adhesive tape and brown sugar. Light to medium bodied and delicately sweet. Tasted of a mixture of watermelon juice, tart citrus, and light yeasty bread dough. Distinctly fruity aftertaste. Interesting stuff.

Surprisingly, the watermelon really is not the overpowering smell or taste in this beer. I was expecting a Jolly Rancher-esque artificial watermelon flavor, and got nothing like that. The wheat beer rules, and the fresh watermelon taste brings just a little sweetness.

Cloudy yellow pour with a thin head. The aroma is of tart/almost sour watermelons , lemon, and wheat . Flavors of watermelon, wheat, and lemon. Not too complex or really that interesting, but I can see this being thirst quenching or nice on a hot day I guess.

Can, courtesy of GodOfThunder. A hazy, light golden colored body shows a thin, swirly head with a bubbly, off-white edge. A soapy wash of lace mostly rejoins the body, a scant few spots remaining behind. Aromas include cereal grains, wheat, glazed biscuit, and hints of watermelon rind and green apple. The flavor, too, shows wheat as the prominent component, while light notes of caramel lend sweetness and traces of watermelon add a unique, fruity twist. Moderate in both body and carbonation, this on is an easy drinker. I guess I lucked out and didn’t get the diacetyl bomb that everyone else got. Decent tailgating brew, but don’t expect to be blown away with watermelon, as its infusion is very subtle.
