bottle. Light golden, small white head with little floaties. Aroma is a bit yeasty, with some spiciness. Flavor is grainy, a bit nutty mildly citric(grapefruit), with a tangy finish.

500 ml bottle. Golden colour with a creamy and fizzy white head. Coriander and orange peel along with a dry wheaty aroma. Light spicy citrus, with a wheaty/grainy flavour dominating, and a bitter orange peel finish. Light bodied, dry and fizzy mouthfeel. An ambitious effort for a Maritime micro, but I bet leaving this unfiltered would step this up immensely.

Well this was a nice surprise! I tried a wheat ale a while back and didn’t think much of if - I thought it was kinda bland. This one was quite refreshing. Of course, I may be a bit bias to the only microbrewery in this town..... Pours light yellow, very clear with a meringue-like head. Aroma is citrus, banana nuts and yeast. Flavours are also banana and nuts, somewhat creamy to the palate.
