5.6/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 4.5
Bottled. Didn’t pour. A bit of a wheat fruity aroma. Weird combo of malts and hops. Hard to think of why/what this beer is trying to be.

From a bottle nice cloudy pour of vanilla colored beer. I’ve got a special place for saranac beers. Yes, has a mild barely wheaty aroma. Does have a little of that ill ale attitude but for the most part its a somewhat enjoyable sizzly beer. Some medium bitterness builds on the sides of the tongue as the session continues. Not bad overall but could use a few manners.

12oz bottle. Hazy unfiltered orange-tan. Thin, frothy, uneven white head. Kind of a dulled barny wheat aroma. Biting dryness up from leads to a grainy malt finish. Not really capturing the style of anything in particular, really poor executed hoppy American Wheat I suppose. Pretty bad, highly disappointing beer. Comes across like a cheap English beer after awhile..thin fishy malt tones.

12 ounce bottle. Pours a hazy amber color with a large frothy off-white head. Average head retention. Aroma of wheat, floral hops and a bit of caramel. The taste is buttery notes, citrus, wheat. Medium bodied, average carbonation.
