2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle, sampled at Trackside’s Saturday tastings in Medicine Hat. Pretty frigging sweet that my little local not only brings in stuff I’ve never had before, but actually lets me pay a buck to try it out! clear pale gold, not much of a head in my little sample tumbler. Aroma is sweetly wheaty. Flavours are light sweet grains with a hint of lemon. Not much to it really, but as a summer sun beer, it would pass.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Hopped up wheaty aroma. Taste of heavy wheat, mild malts, and mild hops. This one is also slightly "crisp and clean", which is average for a wheat beer. Not bad.
