Pours very cloudy pale yellow with white head. Aroma is wheat malt and peppery citrus. Upfront wheat flavors which is followed by a late citrusey and spicey flavor. Clean finish, refreshing, simple wheat beer characteristics.

draft. definitely unfiltered. but it was so yellow that i have to take off a point for appearance. pretty straightforward, but enough citrus and spice for me to give it a good score.

I can drink several of these - not exactly a session beer but I need at least 2 or 3. Nothing overwhelmingly complex, just a nice simple witbier. A little citrus and spice, just not enough to make it memorable.

Good drinking on a hot summer day. Straw like clear yellow color with a white head. Mild aroma of citrus and spice. Easy drinking, light bodied, and dry. Flavors of lemon, banana, and spice. Simply refreshing.

Can... Opaque, off-white ale with yellow highlights and a small, frothy, white head. Citric, breadsy nose. Spices seem to have been disregarded which makes me happy. Balanced, tart ’n’ tangy, yeasty flavor. Almost medium-bodied with a creamy mouthfeel and lively carbonation. Short, crisp, clean finish. Very refreshing! Not brewed to style in that there seems to be no spices added. However, this is a "Best-Of-Show" notebook and I like what I like. I just stumbled upon my new favorite summer session beer!

"This one was good. Could do this one over and over. Poured a yellow/hazy color, good lacing. Aroma had corriander and citrus. Flavor was much the same with wheaty some bananas solid beer."

I really liked this one, although it wasn’t outstanding. Just flat out drinkable and enjoyable, despite coming from a can (Boddington and other widgeted cans are about the only ones I normally like). The pour was somewhat of a fluorescent cloudy yellow. Lacing was great, lots of rings around the glass. Aroma was mostly light spice / corriander. The flavor was citrus (lemons and oranges), over the wheat base with some light bananas. Floral aspects definitely remain in the background (a good thing). Mouthfeel was light and carbonated. Maybe the flavor could have been a TOUCH stronger, but certainly not watered down and very drinkable at the same time. Always nice to go back to a summer style beer, even in the cold months.
