Jul 3, 2009 on tap at 21A. POurs a hazy gold with a pink hue. Nose is fresh watermelon and some biscuity grain. Flavor is a refreshing sweet malt, slight yeastiness and a subtle watermelon flavor. Super refreshing. I have had this from the can and on draft and draft is MUCH better. Very enjoyable beer. I could knock back a 6 pack a the beach easy.

Jul 3, 2009 On tap at RnH (NYC): Pours light, hazy yellow and tastes of watermelon, banana, and crisp bread. Not a favorite and easily forgetable. Disappointed, really. This beer’s just too watered down to be appreciated.

Jun 30, 2009 Can. Another watermelon flavored beer. Golden pour with little head. Aroma is lightly with hints of watermelon. Flavor is nice not superficially watermelon flavored like a warheaid, had nice sour notes, and refreshing aftertaste. Could be a nice session beer.

Jun 28, 2009 [Draft @ Drafting Room Exton] Poured a hazy golden color with a small white head that left no lacing on the glass. Aroma of toast, toffee, vanilla, and subtle watermelon. Taste was sweeter watermelon, citrus fruits, light vanilla, and toffee with a semi-dry finish.

Jun 28, 2009 Can (box of cans) from Canal’s in Lawrenceville, NJ. Honestly, I picked this up for the novelty of it and didn’t expect a whole lot but was pleasantly surprised. Pours a mildly hazy goldenrod with a short white head. Aroma of hay, yeast and summer fruit. Watermelon hits you up front paired with a mildly sour yeast note but the flavor mellows and balances nicely after the first few sips. Pleasingly malty with a nice fruity compliment. Smooth texture and a crisp finish. Very refreshing and a solid addition to the patio this summer. Still probably not for everyone but worth a taste - and no seeds!

Jun 23, 2009 Can... Poured a hazy orange with a white head. Wheats and melon on the nose. Nice crisp and refreshing palate that made this beer a joy to drink quickly. Not worst fruit beer out there. Well-balanced between the wheat and grains and the fruity, summery melon. Glad to have 21st Amendment up here in Portland.

Jun 22, 2009 Growler from St. James Beverage. Pours a hazy deep yellow with a small white head. Aroma of wheat, yeast, clove, and a slight sweetness. No watermelon in the aroma really. Flavor of sweet watermelon, kind of like a watermelon sno-cone or Baskin Robbins watermelon ice-cream with a wheat malt finish. Very nice. Not artificial tasting either, which can be common in these flavored wheat beers. Refreshing and super easy to drink. I was pleasantly surprised by this; why the low ratings???

Jun 21, 2009 12 oz can. Aroma is citrus, banana, wheat, and a touch of fruit - watermelon. It’s an interesting beer, mostly watery watermelon (go figure) with a touch of wheat beer. It’s not a bad beer - drinkable, but it’s something that I don’t think would be too appetizing if I wasn’t out in the hot sun for hours before.
