bought a six pack of this as well at bridgeview. I’ve drank half of them while I was out ice fishing this winter. This is a delious lighter beer. I really enjoyed sharing this beer from some people who cling to domestic beers. If anyone is interested in trying this BM I have a couple left and I’m sure bridgeview has some too. unfortunely I drank this in the bottle so I can’t really tell what color it was. If i had to assume it would be a lighter yellow. Very sweet smelling. The taste is delious very light and sweet. Another great beer from you guys, keep it up!!!

Kind of a weak beer, has light notes of wheat and I smell something like tuna, maybe the label lol. Light and crisp easy to drink beer. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Picked up a single 12-oz bottle at Zipps Liquors in Minneapolis, MN. Pours a clear golden pale colored ale, with a fast dissipating off-white head that leaves behind some spotty lacing and a thin white ring. Aroma of golden grain malt, some white bread dough, a hint of grassy hops and a touch of lemon zest. Taste is light bodied, flavors of spicy grass-like hops, a hint of golden grain malt and a touch of tart pear. Finish is a tad spicy, some lemon presence, mildly bitter with a grassy hop aftertaste. Don’t let this one sit too long on the shelf or it could get a bit skonky.

clear gold pour with a thick head. aroma is strong grainy malt. Some musty yeastiness, light but inoffensive. Flavour is light malted wheat. grainy, light biscuity malt. Light grassy bitterness. Under whelming, but inoffensive for the most part.

Hazy gold with small foamy white head. Aroma is some skunky, wheaty, grassy combo. Taste is light, wheaty, a tad fruity, rasperry, light hops. It would be a decent summer beer as it’s highly drinkable and quite refreshing but overall, rather bland and boring.

Date: November 9, 2011 Mode: Bottle Source: BVery Appearance: Translucent yellow with very little head. Aroma: Bready and lemon. Flavor: Consistent with aroma, relatively thin bodied but not as much as appearance would suggest, with a slightly funky aftertaste. Other: I am a fan of wheat beers, but this just didn’t do much for me.

Thanks Mike for this one! Pours pale yellow with ton of white head. Smell: Bread, banana, lemon and a slight belgian yeast on the nose. Taste: Light, lemon, coriander a touch of banana. The finish is short and light.

Bottle. Clear yellow pour with minimal head. Lots of carbonation. Funky wheat and watermelon rind nose. Taste is also ripe watermelon rind. Just okay.

Thanks bobbypaulson for hooking me up. This is a slightly sweet wheat beer that is surprisingly complex for a light brew. Nothing amazing about it, but a solid option. I drank it with some garlic ramen and the two went together perfectly.
