Not bad. As always Sam Adams creates a beautiful looking beverage. Smooth with a nice little bite at the end. Not special but very drinkable.

straightforward lager with some mild spices and noticeable wheat. Not bad, but I won’t go out of my way for this.

Very Smooth taste, Reminds me of a Stout with more of a mellow finish than the stouts have, Very nice to sit outside on a cold day and drink a few of these.

Poured a clear deep golden color. Was not expecting a lot but was pleasantly surprised. Nice wheat and malt flavors and aromas. Crisp and clean finish. Light bodied.

Had a mug at Carabbas. Malty scent and flavor. Reminded me of an Oktoberfest.

Bottle. Deep copper, with a thick, cream off white head. Strong malt aroma, without much hint of the wheat. Also a good measure of hops in the aroma. Heavy, with a rich malty character, with some of the wheat coming through. For a wheat beer, one of my favorites.

Bottle and Tap. Nice beer, but nothing special. Toffeeish sweet aroma, simple mouthfeel weak malts. Nice and smooth, with a slightly spicy bitter fiinish.

Excellent beer, as good or better than their Octoberfest. Perfect for a cold winter night. Not as good as a "brew pub" type beer, but it’s top of the line for a major brewer.
