Bottle: Bright golden color and quite translucent. A finger of white head leaves a decent trail of sticky lacing. Nose is brisk with wheat and dirty florals, translates right into the crisp wheat ale flavor I was expecting. Nice biscuity malt, dandelion, and wheat. Refreshing.

12 ounce bottle into pint glass, bottled on 3/12/2013. Pours very hazy golden straw color with a nice 2 finger dense and fluffy bright white head with fantastic retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Nice soapy lacing clings down the glass. Aromas of lemon, orange zest, pear, wheat, bread, pepper, light clove, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Very nice aromas with good balance and strength of bready malt and fruity/spicy yeast and hop notes. Taste of lemon, orange zest, pear, pepper, wheat, clove, bread, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Light amount of spicy floral bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of citrus, pepper, clove, wheat, bread, floral, grass, and earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Damn nice flavor balance and robustness of hop, malt, and yeast flavors; with no cloying flavors on the finish as expected. Medium carbonation and body; with a slightly creamy, smooth, and crisp mouthfeel that is great. Alcohol is very well hidden with almost zero warming noticed after the finish. Overall this is an excellent pale wheat ale! All around nice balance and robustness of flavors; and extremely smooth to drink. Really enjoyed this one; best pale wheat ale I have had yet.

Aroma is somewhat sweet with exotic fruits, hops and some wheaty notes. Flavour is slightly sweet and rather fruity with hops, some gooseberry bush, wheat and citrus. Nice and refreshing!

Hazy gold beer. Crisp semi dry palate, a little silky. Dry wheaty malt with very mild citrus. Dry finish. Dull! Surprised Southern Tier are capable of brewing a dull beer but here it is.

Bottle from Liz. Pours hazy orange tinged gold with very little head. Aroma is mostly bready with a little fruit and yeast. Med body. Flavor is bready with some light citrus and a little yeast/spice. It’s got body but the flavors are pretty light. Finishes bready with a little citrus. It’s a nice beer, but relatively bland.

Bottle. Sour wheat malt and lemon aroma. Golden yellow color with moderate head. Sour malt and moderately bitter herb/quinine bitterness. Didn’t expect this to be so dry. A basic wheat ale.
