eaglefan538 (2115), Wilmington, Delaware, USA Jun 11, 2006 A nice wheat based blonde ale, this one poured without a lot of excitement (small to no head with no lacing). The aroma was of sweat light wheat, maybe yeast (probably not). The flavor was excellent, definitely malty (again wheat detectable) with a touch of hop zing in the finish (some citrus, light peppery). Great balance and good flavor and not destroyed by a mouthfull of Ameican hops, like many others Stateside. Mouthfeel was medium to full bodied for just a wheat based "blonde." cazort (376), Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 28, 2006 On tap. The aroma is unpleasant, but once you start drinking it it develops a bit, and becomes quite enjoyable. There is no unpleasant sourness, which is a huge plus. Very crisp and refreshing; unusual for a wheat beer. They’ve done a good job of creating a light, crisp, wheat beer that still has some complexity to the flavour. That’s quite impressive if you ask me. I would pick this one over many other American wheat beers, with the sole exception of Great Lakes’. Dansting (222), Overland Park, Kansas, USA Jun 27, 2007 From a Party Pig. Poured a slightly cloudy golden color with a light white head. Very slight lacing. Very pleasant malty caramel aroma. Above average mouthfeel. Flavor was pretty wheaty, with a malty kick to it. A lot better than I expected, especially since I’m not a big wheat ale fan. But this is a solid wheat beer. shrubber85 (2598), COB Speicher, Iraq Dec 30, 2006 Updated: Feb 18, 2007Sampled from a Party Pig (plastic mini-keg). Strong sour wheat malt and lemon aroma. Clear golden yellow color with large head. Light sour wheat malt flavor. A very nice Am wheat - one of the better ones. HulkamaniacUM (43), Oxford, Mississippi, USA Apr 12, 2006 Not bad, but not nearly as good as Lazy Magnolia’s other specialty, Southern Pecan. Hardly any head, and not much body to speak of either. It’s smooth and looks good, and it’s definitely not bitter. Still, it leaves quite a bit to be desired -- especially when you consider how good Southern Pecan is.
