Bottle @ home. Picked up in a mixer sixer. Someone has to try to catch Slim Ernie on Coors ticks. Clear, dark gold appearance with an off-white head. Somewhat spicy, wheat malty, light lemon citrusy aroma with that nasty macro smell. Honey, somewhat spicy, mild citrusy, rich sweet honey wheat malty flavor. Nasty mofo.

bottle - Pours gold with a fast fading white head. It has a mild wheat aroma. The flavor is sweet and bland with minimal citrus. This brew is bland and lacking, a sub par effort.

Refrigerated bottle poured into a weizen glass. Pours medium golden with small white head. Medium carbonation, light body, pretty good lacing. Taste is bready, grassy, and a hint of lemon-lime. Easy to drink, refreshing, better than I thought.

12 oz bottle into shaker. A filtered gold-hued ale with a medium dissipating head. Leaves a collar of foam. Smells a bit like Pine-sol. Citrus peel is noticeable. Unfortanately, adjunct grain and faint vomit are in the mix as well. Taste is sweet and sour with no bitterness. The citrus character is there, but I wish it were more prominent. Tastes like a pale lager with faint citrus notes. Carbonation is medium, body is light, mouthfeel is lightly creamy. Dry. Not terrible, but their previous spring offering, Rising Moon, was more unique and creative. A quaffable, easy drinking beer, but a bit simplistic.

Bottle. I was really hesitant to trying this particular one. I remember how much I disliked their summer variety a few years back and haven’t touched the Spring/Summer one since. This was better than I could have hoped for - though I was going in with really low expectations. Poured a clear golden color, fizzy medium sized head. Aroma was grassy notes, grains, sweet malts. Flavor was crisp, clean notes of grain, and a touch of grass.

Lemony wheat with a touch of honey. Clear golden, medium head. Light lemongrass flavor. Dandelion finish. Nice spring beer, but needs some oompf.

So this is the label where ratebeer got their color scheme, heheh. Slag aroma. Pale yellow lager thing. Filtered. Taste has a few irritating ale characteristics. Nto bad tho, comes across rather medium mild. YEs, definately ale fer sure. Goodly CO2. On par with many lagers.

Pours clear yellow into a shaker. Bright white head with medium retention recedes to skim surface. Orange and mild wheat aromas. Thin with wheat and citrus. Dry, sweet finish.

Almost no aroma, almost no taste, a perfect example that this brewery is way too commercial. A disappointing seasonal beer. Tastes like a Miller Lite.
