2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 eruizgarcia (108) - - JUL 14, 2012Very clean, crisp with a watery feel. Hint of citrus hops. Very light and refreshing. Good for a summer day.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 vvesside (149) - California, USA - MAY 22, 2013
Pretty good wheat ale. It’s like Goose Island’s take on cheap beer... I can dig it.
2.7 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 15/20 Rotbart (154) - - MAY 20, 2013
Light sweet aroma with a modest white head on a urine colored body. Fairly strong sweet flavor with a light finish.

12oz bottle. Pours a clear yellow color with a one finger fluffy white. Slight citrus aroma, as well as some wheat. Pretty light on taste, but clean. Wheat, bready malts, some orange peel, and lemongrass.

Not a bad wheat beer but not a great one either. Not worth the price.

Just plain awful. Exponentially cloying. Disappointing offering from Goose Island.

From bottle. Aroma of yeast, grass, citrus. Crisp, light, slightly but pleasantly bitter. Light hop flavor. Taste hints of citrus. Lively carbonation but not overly so. Went really well with salad. Glad I tried this. We definitely reach for this on a summer’s day.

Pours hazy yellow with a thin fizzy head. Wheat aroma but fades on the tongue. Not bad but certainly skippable.

Pint at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park. Fizzy yellow, not much head. Weird prickly overcarbonation. Nose of grain, corn, wheat, and some grassy hops. Taste is sweet and any real flavor is obscured by bubbles. Blech.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 astrofrk (330) - Knoxville, Tennessee, USA - MAY 10, 2013
Bought at Krogers on Broadway in North Knoxville.
Cloudy yellow. Medium white head. Aroma: Citris, malts, perfume. Flavor: Wheat, orangees, malt. Mellow finish.
Not a bad beer, very drinkable but nothing impressive. My limited taste for the Goose has done better. Really, my Scruffy Little City of Knoxville can do better than the Windy City.
2.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20 floydslip (21) - Washington DC, USA - MAY 10, 2013
UPDATED: MAY 12, 2013 Murky straw-colored beer with a lot of effervescence that produces a fizzy white head. Smells faintly of spice, bananas, and a little citrus. Taste is a little bitter up front, which develops into a slight sour spiciness, but overall the flavor profile is quite bland. It has a vibrant, bubbly mouth feel, which is good for this style, but that’s not enough to save this beer from mediocrity. Underwhelming.
EDIT: I squeezed a lemon into the next glass I drank, and that improved things a bit. But this is still a pretty bland beer.
