Commercial Description:
Our take on the classic summer wheat beer...it’s a light, crisp ale for mowing lawns, hitting lazy fly balls and communing with nature. Glowing like brilliant rays of golden sun, its malty sweetness finishes tart and crisp. Hocus Pocus is best appreciated with a wedge of orange. Offered as a sacrifice to cloudless days.

A hoppy wheat beer. Some taste but rather ordinary. On-tap at the brewery. A bit of tastness, drinkable summer beer but bland.

kinda of tart for what it was, it brings a decent malty presence but not much else.

Good summer thirst quencher. Nice head, but like all of the magic hat beer I have had, it tastes watery.

Wow. Go figure, a light ale from Magic Hat. Nothing special, nothing to see here, folks, just keep moving along. Bread, sweetness, light hops and malt. Get your Bud friends over here if they want to drink an American-brewed light ale, I got a fridge full!
