Crushed with Jakebra. Initial pour smelled nicely wheaty, but then once it settled the chlorine set in. Then the flavor was poopy, and never stopped.

Bottle. Pours hazy copper with a small amount of head. Smells malty sweet. Taste is malty with very little hops. Very bad taste of corn and cereal grain. Just not a very good beer at all. Not impressed. I’m surprised Michelob would put their name on this bottle.

12 oz botte. Poured clear amber with small head. Aroma of malt, wheat, citrus. Taste of malt, light hop, bread. Nothing too exciting.

12 oz bottle. Good citrus and caramel aromas. Gold body with white head. Flavor is citrus and sour up front with sugary caramel on the finish. Carbinated brew belch on finish also. Sticky caramel aftertaste on the palate. Decent brew.

Gift from my neighbor. Amber pour with a hint of bread. Thin for me but it was ok.

Clear amber pour with a smallish white head. Subtle wheat/grain aroma. Sweet caramel malt and light wheat taste. Not very impressive at all.

This wasn’t half bad, as far as AB’s "craft" beers go. This was at least drinkable for more than one bottle. Has some sweet caramel maltiness, which is a little on the thin side of course, balanced out by some cascade citrus bitterness. Decent enough.

12oz bottle-A slightly hazy amber body with a nice off white covering. Aroma of wheat, orange, and citrus. Taste of the same with a little orange and hops thrown in. This light bodied brew is not bad but I was expecting worse.
