Refreshes on a hot summer day, perfect when married with a chicken ceaser salad. With cheese. HighlanderOne (547), Somewherein, New Jersey, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | May 30, 2007 Poured from bottle. Light hops and wheat in the aroma. Pale amber color. head persists. More lager-ish than wheat, IMHO. Nothing exceptional, but bad - a good summertime brew. Foxbush (468), Richmond, Virginia, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Jun 23, 2007 This was an excellent ale. Balanced hops and malts flavors were most pleasant. The color was a light copper with a generous receding head. This was purchased at the Caboose in Ashland , Va. I am goiung to try and have more of this Ale. This is a medium body ale with a hint of bitterness. Holdwine (912), Beertimore, Maryland, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 25, 2009 Well, it hit over 90 today, so I thought I would crack my first summer offering. This one fits the bill. It seems to be better than its parts. Very quaffable. Extra points because it is trying to be winpy yet flavorful. Decent amount of spices and citrus. jgb9348 (2515), Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 1, 2008 Crisp clear golden coloured body with a nice large slightly off-white head. Aroma of fresh light a.a. hops, malt, sugar and a bit of bread. Light-bodied; Strong malty flavour up front with some hops and a floral taste. Aftertaste shows some character with more malt than anything else, along with a slight bit of perfume. Overall, a nice summer beer - very refreshing and definitely worth trying! I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Chevy Chase Wine & Liquors in Washington, D.C. on 03-May-2008, sampled on 31-May-2008. Rastacouere (5566), Montréal, Quebec, Canada
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Aug 11, 2008 Clear straight, not very bright golden pour. Initially beautiful white head quickly vanishes completely, leaving a highly effervescent liquid in the glass. Fresh malt aroma immediately evokes fresh bread. Minimal citrusy hop notions provide very little bitterness. Not necessarily very sweet, but definitely on the malty side of things. A very soft malt profile aimed fits the summer allusions very well. Medium bodied, gentle carbonation. Clean and very easy to drink, but not fun or remarkable enough to want another and another like the top English examples. zach8270 (2152), Henrietta, New York, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | May 11, 2007 (draft @ The Old Toad - Rochester, NY) Gold color with a white head. Very clear. Aroma is light, grainy, and somewhat sweet. Some spice. Flavor is light and grainy as well with a touch of cloves and other spices and a grainy but smooth finish. Very good summer session beer. Definitely a wheat ale rather than a hefe. JoeMcPhee (5056), Jackson Heights, New York, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 28, 2007 Tap at Fette Sau. Listed as "Brooklyn Dinner Ale". Pale amber beer. Light minerally aroma and pale UK-ish malts. A light toastiness and a bit of fruitiness as well. Very subtle with light berries and a kiss of earthy hops on the nose. Warming brings up a light spiciness and a bit of woody resins. Hardly a mind-blowing beer, but it’s very well constructed, well-balanced and highly sessionable... just as I suspect was intended.
