i thought it was a dismal attempt to copy a great beer, the ones that i bought were very cloudy, and had a lot of stuff floating that eventually sank to the bottom of the glass. i’m just glad that i always use a glass, a mouthful of whatever it was might not have been very pleasant. a definate looser for Keiths!

Always willing to try another overfiltered macro beer, I sought this one out. Poured into a tall beer glass at 6c/42.8f, perhaps a little cooler than necessary for this kind of beer - but about an average temperature for a macro brew. It has an okay hazy gold-yellow body with just a bit of head on top, well tempered by macro chemicals I’m sure. Aroma is soft citrus moderated by light malt notes. Flavour is an odd mix of bready malts, citrus, and a caramel aftertaste that flattens what should be a sharp finish. It comes off as odd and doesn’t quite work - this is a strange tasting attempt at a Belgian wit.

Premium, eh? Must be good. Nope. Pours a cloudy, pale yellow with a small white ring. Looks like a Belgian white, I’ll give them that. Minimal smell- almost nothing at all. Flavor of wheat, banana, lemon, and the same annoying soapy note I got in most of their other beers. Light-bodied. Dull.

Well its beer, enjoyed this at a birthday party. Very generic. Pours gold with white head. Aroma was grass and fait hints of citrus. Taste was sweet. Very light mouthfeel and easy to drink.

UPDATED: JUL 27, 2011 Can. Pretty meidocre. I’m a sucker for white beer, but this one is pretty bland. Cloudy and not very flavourful.

Translucent in the glass. A hint of citrus gets your hopes up, but ultimately disappoints. Watery flavour.

341ml bottle. Uncomplicated with hints of citrus and spice. Not much to it, but goes down quick. Patio fair.

We would have given it A MINUS BUT that wasnt an option......when my huspand poured this can of beer there was a lot of debree in the beer , it looked like crumbs of yeast..not what you want to find in a beer!!!
