The brewmaster's goal: the perfect ale for summertime quaffing, nothing more. SummerBright is the result. The craftsman's touch combines white wheat, two row pale and munich malt with the pacific northwest's most intriguing hops to create a bright, clean ale ideal for picnicking, evenings on the screen porch and enjoying the whims of the summer breeze.

Anytime a brewer tries to achieve mediocrity that’s exactly what they get, a beer that doesn’t satisfy any of the palates that they are trying to sell to. Bland wheat ale with no identifiable distinctions or interesting flavors. Lawnmower beer but its too expensive.

Muddy Dull Yellow, Small Head, No Lacing. Skunky. Wheat Sour and Skunk. Major let down. Summer beer gone bad before summer end. No dates on labels, so God knows what ewer went wrong with it. Not a happy camper...

Can. Light orange and wheat malt aroma. Hazy golden yellow with large white head. Over-ripe orange and wheat malt flavor. No off flavors - just very light/bland.

12 ounce can. Cloudy pale gold color. Small white head disappears quickly. Fragrant, lemony wheat malt aroma with hints of hay. Refreshing wheat malt flavor has a light tangy citrus character. Some hops in midtaste and finish. Definitely would be good on a hot summer day.

12 ounce bottle from Total Wine Lake Manassas. Pours a hazy amber color with a thin creamy white head. Good head retention. Aroma of citrus, pale malts and a hoppy finish. The taste is citrus, tropical fruits, wheat and a faintly bittter finish. Thin-medium bodied. Average.

Bottle. Light lemon wheat malt aroma. Hazy golden yellow with a small white head. Wheat malt and lemon flavor wit a light grassy finish. Light carbonated body. Nothing special, but I’d take it on a hot day.
