Draught at the Fenway Brewpub, Boston, MA.
Served with slice of watermelon. Clear pale golden colour with no head. Aroma: Sweet candy sugary. Watermelon probably only because of the slice on glass. Sweet candy like sweetness. Very sweet caramel. Some fruitiness. Way too sweet. I don’t know why I chose this since I don’t like watermelons.

Draught at the Boston brewpub. Hazy yellow colour. Small white head. The flavour is slightly fruity with a bit of bubble gum. I cannot identify any watermelon.

A golden ale with a thin white head, served with a slice of watermelon. In aroma, fruity watermelon and berries, candy floss, not too cloying. In mouth, a sweetish oily ale with chemical fruity pulp, solvants, light German hops, not bad. On tap at Canal St. brewpub July 11 2010.

Well i was surprised. Thought it would taste either like nothing or way to sweet. Nicely in between and only tasted that freshness from the watermelon rind on the way down. Definitely can only drink on a nice summer day.

Crystal clear golden. low carbonation, no head. Medium strong sweet watermelon flavor, weal-bodied, estery finish.

On tap: Light golden in color with very little head and what it has dissipates quickly. The nose is crisp and gives off scents of fresh watermelon. The watermelon is less noticable in the mouth but still aparent. This is a crisp and refreshing beer that I enjoyed more than I expected and was in fact my favorite of the flight.

On draft at Fenway and Canal Street locations. Transparent light yellow head. Beer really does smell like watermelon. Hoppy, refreshing... end palate has both bitterness and sweetness. Not disgusting at all.

on draft at the Fenway Beer Works. served with a watermelon wedge - who knew beer-soaked watermelon was so good? Smells like a watermelon, and tastes like a watermelon; not in a jolly rancher kind of way, but in a nicely balanced malty, hoppy kind of way. A shockingly pleasant surprise.

On tap from Canal Street location. Light golden color with no head. They stick a little slice of Watermelon on the rim but that should quickly be discarded as it hinders the glass-to-mouth movements. May I suggest taking a few bites first? Thin and weak, it tastes like a traditional light beer with an artificial watermelon flavor. At first we thought it tasted like watermelon candy but then realized it tasted more like watermelon chemicals that didn’t adequetely mesh with the beer. However, it was refreshing and differentl

This light ale pours light brown with notes of malt and watermelon. Cudos for trying to be different but in the end this beer pulls off as pretty average.
