Bottle poured cloudy yellow with little head or lacing. Aroma is crisp, malty, and a bit of citrus. Flavor is very light malt, creamy and just a touch of hops on the finish. Even better when I added a touch of lemon. Good stuff.

On tap at the Crunkleton, nice gold color, not much head, very little nose, great floral taste, with honey, like drinking a bouquet of wildflowers

Tasting - Gulf Brew 2010 - golden yellow, white head. Lemony, hay, notes, with some citrus inthe flavor, some hops presence in the after, but not much to the aroma for this tasting. still a decent wheat.

This wasn’t a bad wheat, but nothing special. Had some nice grass, wheat, floral notes, but just not quite enough. You can guess this is going to happen when you look at it, because it’s not cloudy enough to be a great wheat. Decent though.

Bottle from World Market. Hazy golden colour, white head. Aroma of wheat, citrus. Flavour of wheat, citrus, some malts, some spices. Medium bodied. Nice one.

bottle, pours hazy yellow to orange with a medium white head. Strong citrus aroma. Flavors are mild, easy drinking, with orange peel and wheat, mild spicing in the finish. Not that bad.

pours dark gold and cloud with a thin head. flavor is typical for a wheat-yeasty, citrusy. finish is a little more sour and bitter than most. still, a perfectly middle of the road wheat beer.

Draft at blue star. The beer pours a dark orange yellow with a thin white head. The nose is a fruity lemon and spice. The taste is a citrusy yellow and orange with clove and banana notes. The finish is a slight yeasty flavor.

Bottled. Poured cloudy yellow with a white head making it look like a good hefe pour. Aroma is lemon and wheate with a good sweet citrus to it. Reminds me of a Boulevard Zon. Flavor is a slight sweet blueberry which then switches to a stronger lemon finish. Sweet with a hint of spice and a medium body.

Pours to a small head with a small but lemon and orange aroma. Pours a dark yellow/orange. It is very light going down but it is clean and refreshing with a typical wheat beer follow through.
