Giant can. Pours a cloudy orange yellow with a white head. Smells of honey, alcohol and banana. Tastes of a heavy sweetness with a large fruitiness. Medium bodied. Heavy carbonation. Finishes cloyingly.

pours pale yellow, tiny white head, light lace. not very attractive. light airy nose of grain and honey. flavor is a not exciting or complex mix of grainy honey. medium bodied, dry finish. pretty pathetic.

Giant can. Pours a hazy yellow color. Light aroma of some wheat and light sweetness from the honey. Flavor is very light. Some wheat and honey sweetness. No almonds that I can detect. Good on a hot day, not bad flavor just very light.

Pour is a murky bronze with a small white head. Aroma is a honey sweetness. Flavor is at first a decent honey then comes some wet paper bag. Some nuttyness is left on the tounge. Nothing great but has a few things to look for.

(bottle - 12 oz) Clear gold with a very thin and soapy white head. Sickly sweet aroma of honey and not much else. Flavor is sweet for a split second and then gone. A very mild nutty aftertaste is left. Beyond that, there’s nothing to this one.

Pours a cloudy yellow with a honey almond aroma and hints of citrus and banana. Tastes a little funky, not sure why. Watery, perhaps, or maybe that’s the almond.

POurs cloudy yellow with a tiny white head. Aroma is some wheat and not much else. Taste is sweet and the mouthfeel is very light. Nothing special but $1 for the oil can made me give it a shot. Very inoffensive and just average

Ginormous can, shared with Parksy. Slightly hazy yellow gold, average white head. Aroma is sweetly wheat, I guess suggesting honey. Flavour is straightforward wheat, slightly estery, with a refreshing tartness in the finish. A step above average for a usually forgettable style.

I picked this up at Binny’s in Chicago, IL; enjoyed while my band was recording. Appearance kinda like a juice, very cloudy with a thin head. Aroma bready with a hint of honey. For taste can definitely taste the honey, can partly taste the almond, relatively crisp, better as you drink it. If it wasn’t for the 32 oz can I wouldn’t have gotten it, neutral on my purchase.

Had this while camping at BCTC this year. Pours a hazy gold and yellow with a medium to large white head. Fuzzy wheat, a touch of nuts. Smells a bit like honey nut cheerios. Grainy and sweet. Toast, light bitter finish.
