Lemon tones balanced fairly well with malt. Couldn’t taste much hop character Very refreshing beer but nothing special. Wouldn’t buy again since it’s kind of girly.

12 oz. bottle. This is a real treat on a warm summer evening. The aroma is lemonade as expected. It is very lemony to taste and is really not that beer like. I found it very refreshing.

A nice golden color. With malt and lemons on the nose. The taste is lemony but balanced with malt. There was a slight bit of tartness in finish but overall a nice clean and easy beer to drink

12 oz. bottle. pours out a murky yellow with a small head. Citrus aroma, as expected, with a nice crisp clean lemony taste. Drink it cold as it warms up it tastes pretty gross.A nice effort for a summer beer.

Bottle sampled. Pours a cloudy pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma of lemon and pale malts. Flavoris lemons and wheat very thin bodied with a sour finish.

Too much lemonade taste for me. And I made the mistake of trying it on a day when it was cold outside so can’t even associate it with a nice hot summer afternoon right now. Probably would be better on afore mentioned hot day. A good session beer but if you do decide to make it session choice you’ll have a stomachache in the morning... All the sweet lemonade flavor will catch up to you

Cloudy, bright yellow with a very lager like white head. Aroma is heavy on the lemonade and a bit grassy. Very light mouthfeel. Wheat is present in the aftertaste.

It was kind of painful to put away a six pack of this stuff. Kind of good at first, definitely good on a hot summer day, but the lemon taste is way too fake and reminds me of the fake chemical taste of a lemon drop.
