2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20Pours a pale yellow with thin white head. Aroma obvious of wheat and lemon, not much else. Taste matches, with the addition of stale bread and yeast. Gets easier to drink as it warms up. Refreshing.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Orange pour with creamy white head and lace. Wheaty malt dominates the nose. Flavor is sweet wheat, orange, and a light floral hop bitter. Light bodied with good carbonation.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle: Hazy orangish straw, large frothy white head, nice lacing. Pale wheaty nose, slightly spicy even. Nice clean wheatiness on the tongue, but not as spiced as the nose suggested. Luckily no sulfur or
other associated aromas/flavors so common with the American style. Body and mouthfeel are moderate. A little bready and wheaty on the finish, with a touch of fruit in the finish. Better than I expected, and sweeter than
usual.
2.9 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20
Orange hue slim head faint wheat aroma. Very light fruity wheat. Not extremely sweet like most. I’d call it a wheat lite.

Cerveza bastante interesante, sabor ligeramente dulce y muy suave. Al principio puede parecer no muy buena, pero deja un sabor bueno. Ideal para la gente que no le gusten las cervezas muy lupuladas.

12 Fl. Oz. Bottle. Poured hazy, golden in color, small white head and some decent lacing. Aroma Wheat/grain, some hops (but faint). Taste is also grain and wheat, some malts, citrus notes a minimal presence of hops. Nice and drinkable but not remarkable.

For the style it’s not bad. A little thin but very clean. Good to drink when it’s hot out but other than that, average.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Appearance: It’s a slightly hazy orange color with about a finger of soapy white head.
Aroma: There’s a little bit of a wheaty earthiness to it, but it isn’t a smell that knocks me back. Some hops, but not much.
Taste: The flavor falls into a grey for me because of the fact that Southern Tier is billing it as a “pale wheat ale.” Unfortunately, I don’t get much of the American wheat beer style beyond a touch of a spiciness mixed with some fresh cut grass. I also don’t get too much hops in the palate, either.
Overall: My problem with this beer is that there isn’t really anything about it that makes me crave it at all. It is between two styles, and I’m not sure that it is adequately capturing either of the parts of each that I enjoy. By no means is this a bad beer, but I guess it’s a hybrid that doesn’t quite bring anything beyond the sum of its parts.
Score: 6/10

Poured a clear golden color with a thick and frothy white head. Aroma is pretty faint but I caught lemon, grass, caramel, and not much else. Taste is lemon, grass, honey, orange, and a sweet/sour finish.
