(Bottle (best before 1/10) from Lou’s Beverage Barn) Pours pale clear yellow with some whitish head. Aroma of honey, hay and skunk. Mouthfeel thin, prickly, a little dryish. Flavor of corn, rice and paper. Pretty much indistinguishable from a run of the mill pale lager. Dud. Wheat ale?

Pleasant snow-white head that sticks around for three minutes and then recedes rapidly. No lace on the glass. Pale straw color and crystal clear. Mild wheat aroma with some barley malt in the background. Very thin beer with a strong raw, unmalted grain flavor. High carbonation. A lawn mower beer if I’ve ever had one. No wheat from what I can tell. Sour swallow and a very short aftertaste.

Upta Camp beer is a very sparkling, clear light golden ale white head that fades to a turbulent splotch. It has a faint aroma that’s a little medicinal with a sweet fruity note like lemon. It’s light, lively and fluffy in the mouth. The finish is pretty dry and a little scratchy. There’s a hint of herbal bitterness and a soft, faint sweetness. It’s like herbal tea with lemon and seltzer and mint in it. It’s like a Budweiser or something, but with wheat instead of rice. You could get your dad to drink it.

pours clear yellow with large white head. aroma is light and sweet. drinks really smooth and tastes like a light domestic like coors. not my favorite by any means but being a tribute to a great maine comedian and knowing the comedic story and know that this beer is supposed to taste cheap and domestic, i think its spot on. the comedian is bob marley and the album is "upta camp"

A: Poured an extremely clear body, with a bright yellow color. Average-sized head dissipated to almost nothing very quickly. No lacing that I could see at all. S: All I detect here is cooked corn... no wheat, fruit, or anything interesting at all. Smells like a Coors or something. T: Hmm... tastes like a Coors or something as well. Lightly sweet and dry, with a very short duration... it’s gone as soon as you swallow. Where’s the wheat? Very uninteresting. M: Light-bodied with a thin texture and average carbonation. Meh. D: Sure, you can put it back easily enough... maybe that’s what they’re going for, as a campfire beer, I guess? But it’s not a wheat ale. And it’s not very good at all... a really poor attempt from Shipyard. Easily my least favorite of all their beers I’ve tried so far.

Bottle, #493. Clear golden pour with small head. Light sweet aroma and flavor, more of a cheap corn beer than a wheat. Smooth finish.

Pours a five finger white head that quickly goes to a ring leaving traces of lace. Crystal clear light amber color. Light corn nose. Light carbonation and light bodied. Flavor is sweet, soapy and watery. No resemblance to a wheat. Easily Shipyard’s worst offering. Not worth $1.40 for a 12 oz bottle from Tullys Beer & Wine Wells, Me.
