Canned at Stockholm Beer Festival 2007. An unclear yellow beer with a white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of wheat, watermelon, lactic acid, and youghurt. The flavor is sweet with notes of watermelon and youghurt, leading to a dry wheaty finish.

On tap. Hazy yellow with only a tiny off-white head. Distinct watermelon in the nose with a light underlying dry tartness. Light in body with a heavy carbonation and again dry and lightly tart watermelon accents. Absolutely no malt feel. Dry finish. What have I done to deserve this...? 100709

Can. Pours hazy yellow with a lacing white head. Mild spiced fruity aroma seems a bit off. Watermelon fruity base flavour with a light wheaty texure yet not really wheaty flavoured. Fruity lingering finish. Thin flavour and body.

Canned at Stockholm Beer Festival. Pale yellow, lightly hazy. Hmm. Watermelon aroma and flavour. Medium sweet with simple malt character. A quite lifeless beer I don’t really know what to do with. I’ll give them a couple of points for being innovative, and it’s not really unpleasant, but that’s it.

Canned@SBWF2007. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is pumpkin snd a bad mix of fruits. Flavour is really much the same. I find this beer really disturbing.

Can, 4.9%. Weak wheat aroma. Quite cloudy yellow colour. Small white head. The flavour is mild, lagery, has a little paper note that must stem from the watermelon. Not so interesting.

Can at Stockholm Beer Festival 2007
Hazy light blond color. Very light aroma, a bit sour and with some fruit, watery, dry, a bit fruity flavor. Bad.

33cl can @ Jens C.G. Pours unclear pale yellow with a small creamy white head. Nose is sweet of fruit, butter and watermelon. Medium and smooth palate. Chewing gum - pink Hubba Bubba style. Quaffable.

Light straw colour. Cloudy. Aroma is faint, slightly wheaty. Crisp, wheaty with faint watermelon. Okee-dokee. An Am Wheat with subtle fruit. Which is pretty good in terms of construction but still nothing I’d drink regularly.
