Sep 20, 2008 Updated: Sep 30, 2008Bottle... Post RBSG ’08 O-Town/Vero Beach Throwdown Chapter 8... Clear, light yellow beer with a small, fizzy, white head. The subtle aroma offers discreet notes of corn and cereal grains. Medium-bodied with lively carbonation. Tangy, acidic and lightly sweet. Crisp, tart, dry finish.Thanks to TheCheeseMan for providing the bottle!

Sep 19, 2008 Pours up a bit darker than expected. Nice creamy white head. Aroma has very strong wheat presence with some citrus. Flavor is exactly as it should be with a nice balance between the sourness and the fruity esters. Finishes a bit thin, but this is typical for the style. Very refreshing on a hot day.

Sep 19, 2008 12oz bottle from Badbeer. This beer rocks! Pours hazy yellow/orange with a thin, fizzy white head. Opened the bottle and smelled banana, but that fades quick. After the banana I smelled some sour citrus and a bit of hay and funkiness. Tastes sour and light citrusy with some apple and some hay. Very nice. Medium body, vibrant, champagne carbonation.

Sep 16, 2008 <b>12 oz. bottle</b> - Pours a hazy light golden color with a 3/4 finger thick white head. Very light lacing. Aroma is light grain, esters, and a hint of spice. Flavor is tart esters. Light to medium body. The tartness lingers a tad on the palate. A decent beer, but not quite my style.

Sep 15, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours a light yellow/gold color with an airy white head that has good retention and great lacing. The aroma is sweet and funky with a hint at some sourness that may be waiting for my tongue. Flavor is excellent!; Mouth puckering sourness to it, fruity and citrusy at the same time as it’s kind of earthy. It is a little effervescent but it works. The wheat doesn’t come in until the end but you do get the wheat notes. This beer is wonderful!;!;

Sep 15, 2008 Bottle shared by MaxxDaddy. Very doughy aroma, with nice grape, peach, lychee. Extremely thin body, not surprising for the style I guess but some manage to pull off some heft. Good tart up front, but a creamed corn kind of odd finish. Quite disappointing, especially for New Glarus.

Sep 14, 2008 Pours fairly heavily carbonated. Light, yeasty, vinous aroma. Pretty tart with a very ephemeral graininess. Almost champagne-like fine bubbles. Perfect for hot weather.

Sep 14, 2008 Big thanks to General Gao for this 12 oz. Foggy, burnt orange with a large meringue cap. Spots of lace. Citrus-yeast and slight resin in the aroma. Flavors of acidic-sour yeast, wheat and lemon-orange zest dominate some slight grape and pear notes. Light-medium body is bubbly and dry. Dead-on for the style; just not a big fan of white wine, fizz, and super tart-n-sour beers.
