Light orange with a nose of citrus and peach, candyish flavour that almost reminded me of an alcopop. It’s refreshing and somewhat fitting for the style, but hard to drink more than a sample.

Bottle: Poured a deep golden color ale with a good size foamy head with good retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of lightly sweet malt with some light fruity notes as well. Taste is also a mix between some light sweet malt (couldn’t detect any wheat in there though) with some light fruit syrup added to the mix. I would be really surprise if there was any pomegranate in there; it is more likely that some syrup was use.

Very strong aroma that smells like sweet tart candies. Pours clear orange/amber with a foamy off-white head last does not last. Very dry, tasted nothing like it smelled. It burnt the back of my throat. I don’t know if the bottle I had expired. It looked and smelt great but I didn’t rate these areas because I couldn’t even finish the bottle.

My wife really likes this one. I on the other hand do not. Smells like peach tastes like what I imagine guest soaps taste like and has a bland dry finish.

500 ml bottle. Pours a clearish copper with slightly off-white head. Aroma fairly strong, though pleasant, of pomegranate. Flavour likewise prominently features pomegranate, but with hint of wheat. Pomegranate not too sweet, more tart in the finish. Light body. A bit one note perhaps, but it’s a decent note and makes for a decent summer beer.

Bottle from LCBO. Pours a burnished copper color, slightly hazed with a reddish tinge. Decent cap fair lacing. Lively carbonation Funky sweet fruit aroma and musty earthy notes. Light body, dry wheat biscuit flavor light woody hopping with a persistent pomegranate flavor that stays through to the dry tart finish. A light fruity spritzy-dry summer wheat beer in the commercial vein. No real flaws just not memorable enough to stand out.
