joebudzjoe (222), Connecticut, USA May 24, 2008 Not a bad wheat beer, but not a good one either. There is an interesting subtle orange flavor but the wheat complexity is unbalanced and too bland. EithCubes (2140), Indiana, USA May 24, 2008 Bottle. Mild, slightly chalky aroma (I’m really straining here) - just a sniff of lemon. Opaque hazy yellow with a creamy short white head. Crisp taste, very sweet with lemon detergent and mild creaminess, a rounded wheat character but not extremely well formed. Light ginger and stale, flat mineral water. Hint of bitter orange rinds but all sense of maturity or balance has been stamped out in favor of easy-drinking sweetness. That being said, not cloying. Light body but not watery, boring but not offensive.
IlanMan (816), Appleton, Wisconsin, USA May 23, 2008 Not as bad as I thought. Pretty nice aroma of spices and citrus but the flavor is a little too bland. Put it next to a hogaarden and there is no question of which beer to pick. Won’t buy again. mweber962000 (70), Illinois, USA May 23, 2008 better than blue moon...but thats not saying a whole lot. pour into a glass head faded fast. taste is refreshing. a think this is definately a hot day beer and a beer to have for breakfast. a-b’s finest in a long time, nbut then again not saying much. price isnt bad. definately worth a shot. gringo332 (236), Richardson, Texas, USA May 22, 2008 I am impressed with this beer considering it is an Anhiser product. It is probably better than Blue Moon but very similar. It is good to drink on a hot day out by the pool. I suppose I wouldn’t have enjoyed it as much otherwise. I ’d try it again. jeff789 (359), Pennsylvania, USA May 20, 2008 Bland aroma, not much going on, a hint of hops, almost a peppery? taste, much more tolerable with an orange... Not bad considering... DuffMan (2721), the land of bitumen, beef & beer, Alberta, Canada May 19, 2008 Hazy lemon yellow. Sweaty, faintly spicey aroma. Wheaty palate, light spice and citrus. Not a bad go from A-B. dmtroyer (409), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA May 19, 2008 12oz. Pours a hazy yellow/green with a non-existent head. Nose is mostly lemon and Mr. Clean. Body has some serious acid, alongside some clementines and the slightest bit of vanilla. Soft on the palate with a certain amount of salinity, but also some good carbonation and semi-dry green-pepper finish. Shocking considering who makes this stuff.
