Can from BevMo, La Mesa. Slightly hazy golden in color. Sour grainy aroma with a little bit of cream cheese. Sweet creamy fruit flavor. Somewhat sour. Decent fruit beer.

Can. Clearish yellow with a white head that dissipated quickly. Aroma is sweeter earthy malt, a little bready / grainy. The flavor is somewhat like a wheat beer, grainy malt, and the watermelon is in there as well. The watermelon flavor is a little more like watermelon aftertaste. Interesting beer.

12oz can. poured a hazy yellow with a quickly dissipating white head. A bit of spicyness and a hint of watermelon, maybe the rind. Wow, their is a big watermelon taste, very interesting. Not too bad bad a beer actually

Courtesy of DYCSoccer17. Dull, hazy yellow, little head formation. Slightly buttery, sourish watermelon aroma. Dry, utilitarian flavor, surprisingly prominent watermelon flavor, light metallicness. Dry, lightly hoppy finish, lightly tart.

Pours a slightly hazy, golden hay color with a huge white head that leaves a bunch of lacing behind. A light, sweet, wheaty smell, not too phenolic with only a hint of sweet smelling fruit that could only be construed as watermelon when you know to look for it. Taste is similar to the smell with a bit more discernible watermelon presence but not much more. A very dry finish to a refreshing but not incredibly impressive beer. Its a good summer beer but after having already gone through about 6 real watermelons this summer it just didn’t live up to expectations.

Thanks to Golubj for the can! Hazy gold pour, off-white head, and a nice spotty lace. Leathery citrus type aroma. Thin bodied a slightly watery mouth-feel with a grainy flavor up front. Big watermelon finish with a touch of acid. I think this beer maybe slightly underated.

12 ounce can purchased at BevMo in Vacaville. Aroma has plenty of yeast esters that create a banana-like aroma. I also get a little citrus lemon and the watermelon aroma is also delicately intertwined. A little bit sweet, and a little bit sour. This is a complex and interesting aroma. Moderately hazy golden body with a small, pretty quickly dissipating white head. Starts a bit acidic and rather astringent. There is an underlying wheat body, but this is very difficult to find. It comes through late after the sour, astringent, acidic watermelon flavors dissipate. I think the watermelon flavor is a bit too strong initially. Creative.

lighty golden color with a big light white head. Aroma is very strong of wheat and yeast slight watermelon hints in there. taste was a bit bland and watered down, with a hint of a watermelon but an overbearing wheat water.
