Beer2000 (1775), Kristiansand, Norway Aug 9, 2008 On tap. Hazy orange/yellow body with a white head. Sweetish banana/yeast aroma. Flavor is refreshing, fruity and a bit spicy, but quite light. Watery body and short finish. A lightweight but very refreshing. unclemattie (2370), Georgia, USA Aug 7, 2008 12oz bottle. Hazy yellow, white head. Aroma of grass, lemons, and puffed wheat. flavor is of wheat. Light, easy to drink. Perfect on a hot summer day. ChainGangGuy (2523), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA Aug 6, 2008 Appearance: Pours a hazy, pale yellow body with one inch of creamy, snow white head. Highly effervescent.
Smell: Overall, a weak nose smelling of wheat crackers and with only the faintest notes of citrus and spice. For the finale, perhaps Magic Hat can pull a little flavor out of the hat and make my disappointment vanish into thin air.
Taste: Abracadabra! Crackery wheat malt taste with a brief sugary sweetness. Very light everything: lemon, spice, fruitiness, hop bitterness. Bland, watery finish with a crisp charge of carbonation.
Mouthfeel: Light-bodied. Well carbonated, from the first sip to the last it’s like a sparkling water.
Drinkability: Somewhat acceptable for a light, summertime beer, but the lack of flavor leaves me underwhelmed and the never-ending carbonation leaves me feeling like I’ve downed an entire six-pack, so I doubt I’ll be hanging out again with C-Boy anytime soon. kassner (429), Wexford, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 5, 2008 Had this on Draft at Magoos. Not bad for a wheat beer, faint yeast odor, light ggold cloudy with little head or lacing, no strong spices, just tar temony flavors TheCaptain (526), Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 3, 2008 Bottle - Ahh Circus Boy, what a trip. Had this a while back with a 20 or so beer session and it took the top spot for what ever reason. I think it was the overall pleasant weirdness that won us over(9) people) Texture, earth spice and hop mix just clicked, although I had this just recently and something about it just not what I remembered. Still, I like the beer from these guys and not at all bad, good stuff to try. smjohnst (202), , Pennsylvania, USA Aug 2, 2008 I’ve had better Hefe’s. But it has a nice body to it. Thats all I really have to say about this one. SSSteve (2047), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Aug 1, 2008 a cloudy gold under a very large cream white head. aroma is full of lemon pepper which i assume is the lemongrass. the flavor is grainy, almost nutty. nothing like a hefe but it’s not bad. light bodied and crisp and not overly carbonated....drinks smooth. if it didn’t have such a lame ass name it might have potential to dominate the macro-chuggin’ college bar scene! esjaygee (1467), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA Jul 31, 2008 Hazy straw yellow with a quickly fading white head. Aroma of lemongrass, grassy hops and yeast. Taste matches the aroma, kinda weak and bland. Grainy body is a bit astringent and has a herbal hop finish.
