Jul 25, 2008 Pours a hazy golden color with a white head. Aroma is citrus and hoppy. Flavor is a bit musty, bitter and citrus (lemon) from hops as well as a little grass and spice.
On tap.

Jul 21, 2008 Hey what a delight! I finally tried this summer brew not knowing anything about it and was pleasantly surprised indeed. I was happy to find that Sam Adams strayed from the common banana or orange-infused summer wheats. The lemon zest and grains of paradise do a great job relaying that summer feel in an original way. Smelled good, tasted good, and was very drinkable, not to mention affordable.

Jul 15, 2008 Cloudy yellow color with a foamy white head. Light carbonation with a citrus taste. OK as a light beer.

does not count  Jul 15, 2008 I love the color this beer pours. But then again most of us are concerned with how it tastes. It has a great summertime taste. Not overpowering, but a very crisp refreshing taste. Has a nice citrus note. Like most Sam Adams beers it’s not overwhelming or too bland. It has a nice medium of flavor. Definitely a great beer for a hot summer night/day.

Jul 14, 2008 I hereby announce another S.A. added to my top 10 list. I know, I know. I enjoy a Chimay Triple just as much as any guy who knows a great brew, but as far as good taste+being able to drink more than 1 of them goes, they are the bull’s penis.
I love this ale. It is a perfect drinking beer for a hot afternoon or evening. It goes quite well with any fish or seafood, and is a great tasting, not too heavy refreshment. This is a classic, and I will look forward to every short summer in Minnesota for a chance to buy. That, and the muskie fishing.
