Pretty good IPL, with a mild grainy sweetness balanced out by fruitier lager notes and a floral hop bitterness backed by bready, lemon-tinged fade. Lots of white bread shows up in the middle, while yeast and esters provide a odd citric slant to the fade that never quite goes where you want. Soft, medium-bodied texture's nice, though, and the grass-n-flower hop bite makes for a solid back end. Worth a shot.

Super hazy golden coloured body with a rather thick, three centimetre tall pure white head that fades quickly to just a light layer on top. Aroma of light grass, hay, wheat, yeast, bananas, a touch of tropical fruits and a dose of salt. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong wheatie and coriander seed flavour with some yeast, anise, cardamom and noticeable salt elements throughout with a hint of tropical fruits and a dose of grain and quite pungent banana and yeast flavours meld with the sweetness near the end which make this robust, but still easy-to-drink, which is a nice combination here in the heat of the South. Aftertaste shows more salt than anything else with some bananas and larger yeast flavours that make the profile a bit simplistic, but the tropical fruit notes and light saltiness are still noticeable throughout and the alcohol is fairly subdued, given that it is so high, especially for the style. Overall, a good enough shandy, given that I typically don't like these 'beers', but the flavour profile almost puts this at a Gose, and the ability for this to be a thirst quencher here in the South is a good thing! I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Mac's Beer and Wine in [Midtown] Atlanta, Georgia on 26-May-2018 for US$1,71 sampled in my hotel room here in [Downtown] Atlanta, Georgia a day later on 27-May-2018.

Bottle: Hazy, amber, with a smooth, off-white head. Orange, fruit-wood, honey scent. Fruit....orange-peach flavour. Nice carbonation, sweet.... Not much in the way of hops or bittering, but pretty tasty.

Sample at Ale Yeah! Pours a nice hazy yellow with a big, frothy, white head. The aroma is straw, bread, mango, and some nice yeasty notes. Citrusy sweet, with a mellow bitterness. Medium body, creamy, and smooth. Overall, this is a nice, easy beer. Good, light hopping, and the wit yeast add a lot.
