From old tasting notes. Pale yellow gold color. Big bubbly white head. Crisp lemony malt nose. Refreshing citrus malt flavor hints at lemon peel and apple. Brief dry finish.

12 ounce bottle into pint glass, best before 12/5/2016. Pours fairly crystal clear medium golden yellow color with a 2 finger dense and rocky white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings down the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of honey, wheat, cracker, and biscuit; with lighter notes of lemon, banana, bubblegum, pepper, clove, and herbal/yeast earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of honey, pale malt, and light-moderate fruity yeast/earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Taste honey, wheat, cracker, and biscuit; with lighter notes of lemon, banana, bubblegum, pepper, clove, and herbal/yeast earthiness. Light herbal bitterness and yeast spiciness on the finish; with lingering notes of honey, wheat, cracker, biscuit, light banana/clove, and herbal yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Nice complexity, robustness, and balance of honey, pale malt and light-moderate fruity yeast/earthy hop flavors; with a nice malt/bitterness balance, and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Light-moderate dryness from bitterness as well. Medium carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, crisp, and moderately creamy/grainy mouthfeel that is nice. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.9%. Overall this is a nice pale wheat ale. All around good complexity, robustness, and balance of honey, pale malt and light-moderate fruity yeast/earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, and refreshing to drink. A nicely enjoyable offering.

Old rating. Bottle from Old Town. Light aromas of citrus, wheat and apricot. Tastes more of the same with some honey coming through as well as a slight corn taste. Refreshing, light and sweet. Not really a wheat ale, but enjoyable on a hot day.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours a clear pale yellow with a small short lived white head. Faint aroma of wheat, honey and malt. Flavour is light and sweet with malt, honey and wheat. Light body, watery texture and soft carbonation. Bland and boring.

Light Yellow, Minimal Head, No Lacing. Would never guessed it is a wheat beer. Can’t taste honey either. Watery, bland, boring. Pretty much different name and label for Miller Lite... Falls in Free or Desperate for a Drink Category.
