Commercial Description:
The brewmaster's goal: the perfect ale for summertime quaffing, nothing more. SummerBright is the result. The craftsman's touch combines white wheat, two row pale and munich malt with the pacific northwest's most intriguing hops to create a bright, clean ale ideal for picnicking, evenings on the screen porch and enjoying the whims of the summer breeze.

Very strong aroma, but not very wheaty. The appearance is a pale amber; not much head. The flavor has a hint of apricot, and here the wheat flavor comes in. It’s a rather smooth beer. Overall, it’s a good wheat beer, but not overwhelmingly remarkable.

Pours a clear gold with a thin fizzy head. Aroma of light grain and lemon. Flavor is much the same, very light graininess with some light lemon on the finish. Pretty average in every way.

Yellow body with a decent head on it. Very dull flavor. Crisp but really nothing else to it.

Not bad. Dull gold body with a very thin white head. Light, almost imperceptable aroma of wheat and maybe citrus. Watery palate with okay carbonation. The flavor is actually not too bad. Clean and crisp with some lemon zest. Finishes clean, really no aftertaste. Nothing special...just a thirst quencher.

Pours funky brown yellow color with slight bubbly white head. Aroma weak lemon. Flavor sweet banana, tad bit of lemon, and soggy dough taste. Bad.
