A blonde-colored wheat ale with bright coffee aroma and mild malt sweetness for a balanced taste and clean finish.

Bottle pour from BevMax, Hamden. Appearance is lightly hazy gold (in low light, piss yellow in direct light) with tons of sparkle, 1/2-finger fizzy white head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is weak coffee, honey, and lightly roasted malts. Taste follows aroma but is a bit bolder. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, soft carbonation and weak finish as taste. Overall, nothing really bad about it. It drinks pleasantly enough and flavor and aroma are decent but really weak and almost zero complexity.

Pour is a hazy blonde with a large white head. Aroma is some faint whiffs of coffee and some malty sweetness. Flavor is more faint coffee notes and a big time honey sweetness. They could have 86'ed the honey or lessened it a bit as this is really sweet. The coffee is decent though.

12oz bottle picked up at Harmons. Pours clear light straw yellow with small white head, some lacing. Coffee, light toasted bread, wheat and mild bitterness. Decent

12 ounce bottle from Woodman's Appleton, 11/14/19. A meaty wisp as I opened it. Hazy amber, large fizzy white head, fair retention. Aroma of sweet sugary coffee and a citrusy note. Taste is coffee, citrus, something odd. Wheat? Thin. Not bad, but just comes together oddly.

Pours clear golden with a fluffy white head. Aroma of toasted coffee. Taste has creamy coffee notes, mild bitterness. Palate is light, soft mouthfeel with cream notes on the nose. Good but not well crafted.

[12oz bottle from Albertson's, Fullerton, CA.] A hazy amber pour with a thin creamy white head; aroma of malt and weak coffee; stronger iced coffee taste, with a creamy body; and a sweeter finish with a trace of vanilla. Oddly drinkable.
