Bottle courtesy of stfun. Pours a very hazy amber with a white head. Smells of a healthy dose of amarillo hops, citrus, some wheat and bubblegum. Tastes of citrus, light bitterness, hay, dry, some sage, some sweet wheat character. The amarillo hops REALLY shine in this and compliment the wheat well. Reminds me of Gumballhead. Excellent!

Appearance: Pours a hazy, orange-yellow body filled with fine particles and topped by a small, fizzy white head. Smell: Lemony aroma with notes of mushy wheat grains and eucalyptus. Taste: Tangy malted wheat flavor with flavors of lemon and eucalyptus. The hop is a bit, well, icky. Medium bitterness. A quick "ugh" and it’s over. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Drinkability: In conclusion: No.

Bottle: Pours a hazy golden bronze with a stringy-lacing white head. Aroma of lightly sweet pale wheat and lemon citrus. Starts thin, lightly sweet and citrusy with a mildly doughy palate before a dry bittersweet earthy finish. pretty bland and bitter throughout.
