pour is light with white head..Nose is dust, honey, grain..Taste is chalky, honey, agave, musty, light sweetness.

Golden pour with medium white head. The aroma is like the taste, a little dull but with just the right sweetness. Solid body with excellent drinkability and perfect for a hot day, goes down very nice. Good use of agave nectar, its not over powering and its just enough. Overall a very easy drinker and stays true to the label with a very "subtle sweetness".

Bland beer. Pours yellowish orange with a big off white head. Smell is like sweet soap. Lots of carbonation but looking for the flavor. In a blind taste test I would guess this was coors with extra sugar. Easy to slam though.

bottle. Deep golden with small head. Tastes like standard blue moon with a slight hint of agave. Easy drinking, but I’m not sure I’d notice the agave if I wasn’t really trying to taste it.

From the 12 fl. oz. bottle. Stamped AUG2613-C05100357. It pours golden yellow with a bit of a white head that fizzles quickly. For a wheat ale the wheat is either incredibly downplayed - or not even there. Vague grainy malts with a crisp hop finish. The body is light and creamy. The taste has an upfront sweetness, a little light fruitness and a mildly dry finish but where’s the wheat?

Got it in a sampler pack. Went back the next day and bought just this. Really good on a hot summer day.

Pale amber pour with a white head. Whoa the nose smells scary, I get some grassy skunky notes with some malt trying to peak through just barely. Pretty bland on the palate and what flavor there is isn’t exactly good. Drank about half of it and DP’d the rest. As far as agave flavors go, I guess it’s in there somewhere but this tasted like just a crappy example of a wheat beer to me.

Tap at Paris Casino in Las Vegas. Thanks to El_Jefe! Clear light amber. Medium white foam. No lace. Taste is quite sticky honey, biscuit, whole wheat roll. Sweeter but not cloying. Like a downgrade from new Glarus honey bock. Palate denser, sticky, quite sugary. Sweet, frat party kegger nose. Drinkable.

Bottle at fundraiser. Hey - better than Bud Light. Pours yellow with frothy head. Sweet taste....too much so. Mild finish. Better than the alternatives but way too sweet.

Bottle at home. Sweet aroma with agave and over ripe pineapple hints. The palate is creamy with above average carbonation. It’s quite overly sweet, with very minimal bittering. There’s a definite note of tequila in the background. The finish is crisp, with lingering agave / tequila flavors. Above average for a pseudo craft.
