Pour is a nice amber with a small white head. Aroma is sweet malts with a super artificial citrus. Flavor is weird. Very bitter with some vegitable and copper. Gets unpleasant toward the end. There’s lime in this? Not real good.

Aroma is harsh malty, with some dust and very light lime hops. Not to pleasant. Appearence is nice sparkling copper with a big off-white head that stays. Pretty decent lacing too. The taste starts a bit salty then goes to a bitter/sour hoppy flavor. Somewhat watery. Dry mouthfeel.

Bottle. Pours a clear copper color with a medium rising off white head. The aroma is citrus and a light spice. Decent lacing on the glass. The taste is a light malt with lime notes and easy to drink. A good wheat ale from Coors, but not too much going on with it besides the lime.

draft - Aroma is of wheat and mild spice. The flavor is crisp wheat with a mild lime component and some coriander. It’s too thin, but still a refreshing brew for the warmer months.

Draught pint at Joshua Tree (bar near me) on 4/14/07
So my friend and I are at this bar towards the end of the night and this wicked hot chick is sitting at a table right near where we were standing. We were fairly bored and it’s always fun to talk to hot girls, so I’m like, "Marco (my friend), what should I say to this girl?" He comes up with a pretty sweet pick-up line that goes a little like this. I walk up to the girl and say, "Hey, do you know what time the bars around here close, we’re not from around here." And then she tells me the time and asks, "So where are you from?" and I respond "Cambridge". Cambridge is literally the next town over and about a 10 minute walk, so it’s a pretty funny line, in which you just insert a town right next to where you are. Anyways, it had the girl laughing for about a minute straight and we all hung out the rest of the night at the bar and had a good time.
The beer is not so good. Copper-colored with strong, strong coriander and cheap sugars in the nose. The flavor isn’t much different, with sort of a thick, spongey texture that grows sweeter and almost chewier on the finish. Tons of coriander, with astringency and lime acidity. Not crisp in any way, not refreshing due to the sweetness.

Bottle: Pours a clear golden color with a large, creamy white head. Nose of yeast, wheat, and some spiciness. A bit earthy. Taste is dry, bisquit malt with some hints of spice, yeast, and lime. Very crisp and carbonated.

This brew is a clear orange/amber color with a medium done white head that dissipates slowly. Spotty rings of lacing on the glass. Bready malt aroma with a touch of lime. Light-bodied with a mildly spicy character and flavors of yeast and lime. The finish is lightly herbal with a sweet malt aftertaste. Pretty average all around.

Not a lot here, and nowhere near as good as the wit. This is an American wheat with light citrus and key limes. There is no sediment. It is light red and there is a thin layer of foam. Herbal finish.
