Not bad. Sweet...you can really taste the honey flavor. It’s actually a pretty good session beer.

My friends enjoyed this, I did not. Small, fizzy, white head. Body is a sparkling, chill hazed yellow. Aroma of honey, wheat, and wet dog. Taste of sweet water, if I push myself I can find some cinnamon. Dry mouthfeel fizzy carbonation.

Bottle. Small white head that mostly diminished, splotchy amounts of lacing, transparent, visible carbonation, and a yellow hue. Nose was honey, sweet, oranges, and malt. Ditto for the flavor along with a somewhat crisp, refreshing flavor. Tingly mouthfeel and medium in body. Might be okay on a hot, humid summer day, but other than that, it did not leave me wanting this one again. Not a bad beer, just nothing special, rather dull and boring to drink.

Bottle. Golden pour with nice white head. Can taste the honey in this one. Not bad, but the flavor is kind of weak. Pretty refreshing on a hot day, however.

Liked this more than Blue Moons white ale. I like summer wheats and my wife really liked this so imagine i’ll have it again

This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a medium sized head of foamy finely sized white colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a transparent typically carbonated yellow colored body and a good lacing. The weak aroma was sweet and honey. The crisp mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish. The balanced flavor contained notes of malt and honey. An OK brew just nothing special.

This won a GABF medal?!? Coors does a good job of trying to make different beers which they can market to everyone, but I cannot drink this. I choked down half a bottle but couldn’t stand any more. It’s so thin, it’s like drinking water.
