Big white head. Lots of lacing. No nose at all. Almost no taste. Slight sweet, slight citrus. Drinkable.

My wife likes this, but bleh it’s not beer, way too sweet for me. Kind of chalky and tart

12 ounce bottle. Pours a hazy sunshine yellow with a large two inch head that slowly collapses. Taste is of lemon, wheat and some spice. Similar aroma. Reminds me of lemonade, but without the pucker. The body is nice, slightly full, but a bit watery. A good summer beer. Drinkable, a good thirst quencher and I like that it has an abv of 4.2%.

Hazy yellow beer with a frothy white head, which quickly disappears. Weak lemon smell. Tastes of watery, sour lemonade. Coriander peel, lemon zest, some hints of sweet malts. Sour finish. Refreshing. but ultimately forgettable.

Hazy straw color. Smells like shock top. Maybe the soapy-est tasting beer I’ve ever had. I rarely pour one out, but this sucks. Even for shock top.

Bottle. Cloudy light brown. Too sweet. Beer with lemon kool-aid. Aroma is light citrus.

Pretty good. All in all it worked. Real lemon citrus infused into a light crisp refreshing beer. The belgian wit yeast was overshadowed by the light sweet malt and citrus element. Good

It pours a semi-clear pale yellow hue with a quickly dissipating head. The scent is mild with creamy wheat and lemon aroma. The texture is slightly creamy with cheap grains and lemon hitting the taste buds rather weakly. This is essentially Bud’s version to compete with Miller’s distributed Leinenkugel’s Summer Shandy. It’s a decent summer beer…maybe? I guess I would have to try both of them at the same time to give an honest opinion of which one is better but I have yet to have a shandy that tops Potosi Steamboat Shandy on draft. Overall this is average, maybe a little better but nothing that amazes me that much.

Aroma is a sweet citrus. Taste is a cheap beer with lemon flavor. Overall not the best.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy lemonade color. Tiny short lived white fuzzy head. Lots of carbonation. Mild arificial lemon flavor (Lemon Pledge???). Not the worst beer in the world, but not very good. How does AB call this a Belgian.
