If out on the town looking for a decent brew but can’t find nothing but domestic and this, I’d happily settle for this. Not overly exciting, but not terrible either.

Pours a very average yellow with little head. Smells faintly of malt and honey but the taste doesn’t follow up too well. Finishes pretty thinly. Not too much going on with this beer

Looks and tastes more like a lager than a wheat beer. Just a touch of honey sweetness in the finish.

Pours a very pale yellow color with quickly diminishing head. Has a decent scent of wheat to it. Taste it rather simple as it is basically a lighter flavored wheat beer. I’m really searching for the honey taste in it and can not find it. Definitely a summer beer, but essentially is just a glorified Miller Lite taste wise. Certainly not unique by any means.

Bottled November 14, 2012.
Appearance: The body is a perfectly crystal clear golden with a pillar of fine carbonation bubbles rising to a thick fluffy white head, though poor retention as it settles into a light coating and a foamy ring. This beer looks great, but it’s odd to see a wheat beer this clear.
Aroma: Light honey sweetness with some light citrus, restrained but not offensive, just a bit bland.
Taste: Like the aroma this is a bit unremarkable, light honey and light citrus. This is aimed at the mainstream palates, it’s not bad but it’s unremarkable.
Palate: Light bodied with soft carbonation that gives a slightly bready texture.
Overall: This is very inoffensive, it’d be great on a hot day but other than that it’s uninspiring.

It pours a straw like yellow with a two inch foamy white head. Lots of carbonation is seen rising. The smell had some hops with a bland sort of honey. There really wasn’t anything else to note. The taste had the honey up front and once again nothing that stood out. The palate was pretty light and nothing harsh on the tongue. Overall, well it’s not a bad beer, just not something to scream about, probably would be better in the Summer.

Bottle into glass at chads..had this before and never really cared for it... still feel the same..just ok..ended up mixing with a berry weis making a honey bear.. little better i guesd

little aroma. appearance is golden and crystal clear. not at all how a weiss should be. does have a nice head. taste is very watery.

Pours a clear straw yellow color with a bright white bubbly head. (This is a weiss beer?) Looks more like a lager than a weiss. Not much in the aroma dept. except for some wet hay notes and grain. Taste was more of the same,somewhat smooth but no honey at all. med carbonation.. First bottle i tried couldnt finish,drain pour,quite bitter. 2nd bottle was better but certainly not was what i was expecting.

Bottle. Clear golden color with a small white head. Grainy, straw aroma. Taste is very close to macro swill, but there is a hint of sweetness in the finish. Creamy texture with average carbonation. Fine if your in the mood for something bland and light.
