Like an IPA but wheat! Innovation. Pours amber with OK head and lacing. Come citrus and pine. Bitter finish. Malty backbone. Tall can.

16oz can from Shoreline Beverage pours a murky, deep gold with some lacing white head. Nose has quite a bit of approachable tropical fruit, some pineapple, some clove, a little lemon, mild tangerine, some dried grasses. Flavor has more malt and bread character than the nose lets on, mildly yeasty, some hef-y esters, mild clove, mild bubblegum, tropical fruit, some orange, some yuzu. Medium bodied, chalky finish.

Super hazy copper and amber coloured body with a two centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of pale malt, light hops, a touch of coriander seed and some very subdued grapefruit notes. Light-bodied; Sharp hop pellet flavour at first with a very mild malt hit and a nice and light airy fresh flavour. Aftertaste shows a very earthy malt flavour, some coriander seed and a little more grassy and floral hops. Overall, a decent light beer with some flavours and a touch of hops that goes down very easy. Definitely not bad, but of course, it’s not an amazing beer - worth trying if you like wheat ales or hoppier light beers, such as light IPAs. I sampled this sixteen ounce can purchased from Good Beer in New York, New York on 19-July-2014 for US$2,69 sampled at home in Washington on 07-October-2014.

Location: Sampled at TapNY, 4/26/14
Aroma: The aroma is light and malty, some bread, and pale malts, and not much else
Appearance: This brew pours a clear reddish-orange color with a beige head on it
Flavor: The taste is mild, with a bit of grainy sweetness and some mild bitterness
Palate: The body is light-medium, it drinks alright, clean on the mouth, and a mild finish
Overall Impression: Well, now I understand why this wasn't sour at all. It wasn't suppose to be. I saw that it was a Kentucky Common, and I expected it to be sour, so reading the description on here clears that up. That changes my opinion a bit, but, at the same time, it was just a pretty boring beer. The lack of the expected sourness wasn't my only issue, it also kind of lacks taste in general.

At a tasting, thanks zvikar, small longf lasting bubbley head, clear light brown to to deep yellow colour, aroma of fizzy orange drink with a hint of malt in the back, flavour of plastic, some corn and fruitiness with just a hint of hops. Nothing shocking.
