"The dishwashing liquid came to mind." Hahaha. I was likely working the dishwasher in 2006.

Sample in brewery - Next to nothing in terms of flavor here. I had hoped for more. Flat, limp and bland does not a white beer make.

This seems like a decent session. It has an assertive aroma of lemon and spices and a flavor that reminds me of lemon cascade. Unfortunately, the dishwashing liquid came to mind.

Poured a clear bright yellow color with a nice banana clove nose. Flavor is nice and light with lots of banana, some clove, corriander, and a slight lemon undertone. Didn’t taste any of the difference from the champagne yeast, but still a nice summer brew.

Draught @ Wagner Brewery: This was an interesting brew. It is not mixed by the bartender, it is blended and then kegged. This beer pours a slightly hazy golden color with a small white head. The aroma is a bit dilluted, but still yet pleasing. It has notes of orange, corriander, clove and wheat. The taste of the chamoagne is muted, balancing very nicely with what tstes to be a very decent wit. A very tasty summer brew!
