On tap at flynns in sagamore. Very hoppy wheat ale, light straw color, a little white head that is gone fairly quickly, the nose is hops, maybe centennial, or cascade, more of a citrus hop character than grapefruit. The hops dominate the flavor from some of the traditional wheat ale flavors like banana and bread. Very easy to drink, delicious.

(Draft @ Damariscotta River Grill) Pours clear light gold-amber with a finger or two of off-white head. Aroma is sweet and citrusy with some light pine, perhaps spice. Mouthfeel fairly smooth, lightly pebbly. Fairly full-bodied for a wheat. Lots of weepy but well-retained lacing inside of glass. Flavor of light citrus and pine over mild wheat, caramel and vanilla. Lightly flowery and sweet. Nice hoppy bite in the finish. A wheat with some IPA characteristics.
