2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Very pale white-yellow colour. Aroma is lightly wheaty and little else. There is a kiss of light citrus and a bit of soft herbal character. Almost no flavour at all really, wheat malt and nothing else, but I could see pounding these on a hot summer’s day... actually, that pretty much describes today.
3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
12 ounce bottle from a sampler. Pours a hazy lemon orange color with a thin head. Fair head retention and lacing. Boring aroma of bread and yeast. Hardly any fruit or spice notes. Taste is bread, very light citrus, yeast and a fair bit of spice. Much better than the aroma. Body is a bit on the thin side.

Sipped from bottle. Aroma is faint, wheaty, malty, nothing much. Flavor is muddy, overall. There is certainly wheat and grain, but nothing jumps at you. At best, a cheaper “craft” offering for summer session drinking.
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
(Bottle courtesy of Headbanger) - Color is a hazy yellow gold with good carbonation and a thin head. Aroma of grain and honey. Taste is light and metallic. Starting with a light body it goes down easy and crisp. Finish is a lightly sweet malted wheat and honey taste backed by a hint of lemon. After taste is a little bland and dry leaving you with a slight metallic taste. Overall its a little weak but it is easy to drink.

2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle (12oz) shared with garthicus, jerc & mabel -- c/o j&m. Pours a hazy yellow-gold with lots of floaties and a small diminishing white head. Aroma, which is quite mild, of wheat, grain, a hint of spices and citrus -- boring. Watery flavour follows the aroma -- it’s not very flavourful. Light to average bodied. Pretty useless, it’s too dull to drink.

Bottle. Poured a cloudy gold color with a white head. Aroma of grass and citrous. Has a weak wheat flavor with a lemon finish.
