Cheap can. Pour is fairly clear pale with an orange hint. Interesting and fresh strawberry pineapple nose. First taste is better than expected. This thing is listed here as a wheat ale but its really a fruit flavored beer. It lacks any of the bitter rude ass wheat ale characters, so common in domestic wheat ales. This is simply a mildly tart easy drinking fruit flavored drink, even has a tad of sweetness in there, making it come across like the popular Sweetart candy. To say this is a wheat ale, well, that may be the base but the fruit is what makes the brew, not the wheat ale. The wheat ale, if it is, is so far removed from the attribute of this product that its really a flavored fruit beer. I'd even say it falls under the berliner weisse family of brews, that is what it tastes like. Not bad overall, considering I really dislike wheat ales.

The aroma on flavor are fairly equal parts strawberry and pineapple. The pineapple tartness helps cut the sweetness. It’s light and easy drinking though doesn’t really rise above average overall.

Pineapple, strawberry, wheat malt, and straw aroma. Dark yellow with minimal head. Mild sweet-tart strawberry, pineapple, wheat malt, and mildly bitter straw flavor. Good body.

Refrigerated 12 oz can poured into a glass. Hazy light orange with small white head. Aroma is fruit, medium body, medium carbonation which dissipates quickly, and little lacing. Taste is wheat esters, strawberry, and pineapple.
