On tap at GABF 16'. Pours a hazy gold with small white head. The aroma is strong wheat, grass, citrus. Medium body, similar flavors to nose, light finish, decent

bottle - Pours hazy, bubbly yellow with a one finger lingering white head. There’s a lightly fruity aroma with some sourness. The flavor has some bitterness but is overwhelmed by the watery funky effect of infection. Blech. It’s yet another infected Triton bottle. That’s my third from them... all different beer styles.

12 oz. bottle from Fletche00. Pours a nice straw color with a big, pillowy, off-white head. The lacing is thick and persistent. Smells of damp hay, cilantro, pine, and just a hint of lemons, and maybe some bubblegum or bananas, if you’re really searching for them. Lightly bitter and a little funky and sour. Only a touch of grainy sweetness. Medium body, sticky, astringent, a little harsh. Overall, this is an unfortunate hoppy wheat ale. The bittering hops overwhelm what should be subtle wheat notes, leaving something more akin to an overhopped pilsener or mediocre pale ale. This leaves a lot to be desired.

12 oz. bottle courtesy of queenholly. Nice looking wheat in my weizen glass. Cloudy gold color with last white head that laced lightly. The nose is sour lemons. Flavor is tart citrus and a mildly harsh sour wheat notes.( sour in a bad way) I also get the spicy Amarillo hop bitterness. Light herbal notes. Honestly I love wheat ales, drink a lot of them, for me this is just off. Either the hops don’t work with the yeast and recipe or this was an old funky bottle. And I trust queenholly didn’t send me an old bottle so…. This brewery needs to revamp or scrap this brew entirely.

Bottle. Clear golden body. Short, white head, rapidly diminishing. Mild aroma of toasted grain, candy, lemon, herbs. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes lightly to moderately sweet and lightly to moderately bitter. Medium body watery texture, lively carbonation. Sweetness dominates despite some lingering bitterness. As average as you can get.

Bottle. Sour milk aroma. Hazy golden yellow with a skim of white bubbles. Watery sour malt flavor with a bitter herbal hops finish. Thin light body. Not pleasant.

Refrigerated bottle from JoePeesie poured into a weizen glass. Pours slightly hazy light golden with small white head. Almost no lacing, light body, syrupy texture, and stong sour aroma. Taste is tart wheat, herbal hops, and tart finish. Hard to drink, not refreshing, won’t be seeking this out.

Bottle. Vanilla and creamy wheat malt flavor. Golden yellow color with small head. Sweet vanilla/cream soda and wheat malt . Light bitter herbal hops and funky finish. Not bad, but I really didn’t get the crisp and refreshing out of it. Seemed a bit heavy. Addendum: a month later - turned into a diacetyl bomb.
