Can from Mellow Mushroom (Chattanooga).
Poured hazy yellow color with a large frothy white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate sweet grainy aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium citrus sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration.
Drinkable but only worth having once.

A hazed blonde ale with a thin white head. In aroma, a smooth lemony banana with light cloves. In mouth, a rather chalky example of a wit with some light acidic points, banana malt, a bit short. On tap at the Istmus Beer and Cheese, Jan 21 2012.

16oz can. Poured clear bright golden with about 1" of initial white head.. lots of rising carbonation. The aroma wasn’t bad with maize and banana sweetness accented by white pepper and a little orange zest.. sweet overall. The flavor was quite similar with sweet honey and pale malts at the core.. mild tangy wheat and orange zest at the edges.. picked up some dry peppery spicage for the finish.. just a touch sour right at the back. Lighter-bodied with a bit of syrupy texture on the palate.. not quite dry enough at the finish.. tangy tartness was close to metallic, but maintained its air of refreshment. Much better than it rates.

Taco Mac strikes again! Cloudy yellowish/gold color. Typical aroma of wheat and orangewith some light spice. Flavor is boring and really not that good. Seems hard to fuck up a wheat, but so many breweries do.

A belgian wit from City Brewery, this should be a treat. Hazy, dirty golden color. Moderate, big bubbled, off-white head. Aromas of grain, old oranges and some spent spices. Well that’s as good as it gets. Touch of wheat and grain in the start. Some circus peanut sweetness in the middle along with a bit of pickling spice. Rather dry finish. Some more old dried up orange flavor. A tough style that was not handled with much finesse.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20
Can shared with kp prior to the tasting: Slightly hazed and a small head. The aroma has notes of orange peel, coriander, wheat, white wine grape, and medicinal. The taste is twangy and fruity with wheat and wet grains in the background, again a grapy finish and metallic as well. The mouth feel is lively and sprite, refreshing enough. Well it does not suck, would work at the beach.
