j12601 (1151), Poughkeepsie, New York, USA May 18, 2009 On tap at the Beechtree. Pours a clear gold with a thin white head. Light wheat aromas, and a bit of sweet wheat fruitiness. Medium carbonation, sweet, more wheaty fruit, and a touch of lemon. Finishes with more wheat, and a bit of grain. Metallic finish. ilovedarkbeer (1326), Dallas, Texas, USA May 13, 2009 Nose is earthy hops and bread and lemon. Taste is wheat, citrus, and yeast. Unmemorable. ericandersnavy (1039), crossroads, Texas, USA May 6, 2009 bottle thanks to swalden28. poured light gold with a fading white head. aroma was fruity, pomegranite???, slight caramel, and dough. flavor was yeasty, metallic, some bitterness. light body with high carbonation. i had problems figuring this one out. jeff789 (359), Pennsylvania, USA May 6, 2009 Clear pale yellow, w no real head... lemony slightly hoppy decent aroma... Flavor has an initial hoppiness that is nice but ends in a malty finish that lingers while being slightly dry... yesyouam (587), Fairport, New York, USA May 5, 2009 Brooklyn Summer Ale is a very clear light golden ale with a thin white ring of a head. It has a fruity, wooden hop aroma, with a note of lemon. It is light, fluffy and crisp in the mouth. It has a boozy taste. It’s lightly bitter, with notes of lemon and light grain. It seems a little strong for a summer ale. lb4lb (2011), Austin, Texas, USA May 4, 2009 Pours golden with a white, fizzy head. Smell is wheat, whipped whites and grassy hops. Taste is grassy, metallic and with mild malt sweetness. Kind of an egg white like flavor as well. Medium to thin body with crisp carbonation. So so beer with some flaws, but its drinkable. dmschefke (371), Eastpointe, Michigan, USA May 1, 2009 Pours a refreshing gold with thin white head. Aroma hard to place, but definitely bread/biscuit, wheat, grass, with ever so slight hops. Flavor is similar, refreshing, but nothing very memorable. Mouthfeel is a bit too slick for my taste out of a gold/blonde. FestiveAle (3), USA does not count May 1, 2009 For a summer lawn mower brew it is quite good. It has a bready flavor. It is light and crisp a good beer for a hot day. Hops are mild and a little thin bodied to be my regular beer.
