For a wit it's pretty subdued but it's good.

16oz can pours out crisp clean pale straw topped with a white head. Nose is light grain some bread grassy touch. Taste is more of the nice sweet light bread malts and a grass touch.

I found this 12 oz can at a Total Wine on the northwest side of Austin a while back. This afternoon the glass of choice is a tulip from the recently departed Buffalo Bayou brewery, glad to have a glass to remember them. I open the can and am greeted furiously, be forewarned. The appearance is a brown-amber body with fine, light tan bubbles strewn across the top, steadily recharged certainly. I smell wood, grain and maybe a bit of toffee. And the drink is malt, wheat bread, a touch of chocolate and a small caramel sweetness. Decent in the style as they tend to be.

12 oz. can from HEB in Boerne, TX. Pours a crystal clear straw yellow color with a white head and very good retention. Lots of spotty lacing. Grainy sweet pale malt aroma. Grainy pale malt flavor too. Decent flavor for only 3.25% ABV. Yes, it tastes light, but it doesn't taste quite as watery as similar ABV beers. Light body and high carbonation, with no bitterness. Pleasantly surprised.

12 oz. can from HEB in San Antonio, TX. Pours a clear bronze color with a khaki head and good retention. Decent lacing. Light caramel malt aroma. Sweet toffee flavor to match the aroma. Tastes like a sweet Marzen, but with a sweeter finish. Some vanilla notes in the finish. Medium-light body. Medium+ carbonation. No bitterness. A really smooth and clean beer. Maybe too sweet for most people, but I really like it.

From Brewvana 12 days of Christmas. There's a best by date but it's unreadable.

It pours a hazy orange almost honey like colour with a small and quickly disappearing head of foam, no lacing.

The smell is tart. Apricots, hibiscus, lemon, mango and some chili peppers. What a mix.

The taste is sour apricots, lemon, hibiscus and quite a bit of heat from the peppers. Umm.

Light bodied, this is not a beer that I am enjoying. Lose the heat.
