Super hazy golden coloured body with a nice, frothy, quite large pure white head, about three to four centimetres tall. Aroma of grass, light flowers, a dash of hay, citrus and some pure grapefruit notes with a little dash of malt. Light-bodied; Fresh grapefruity and citrusey flavours dominate with a light dose of wheat and soft malts with some herbal and spice elements and a dash of coriander seed towards the end. Aftertaste shows the fresh cut grass, lemon and grapefruit notes with some softer malts that provide enough body, especially for the style. Overall, a nice beer for the style with a lot of dry and citrus notes that provide a good hop character and still well-rounded to make it enjoyable for a soft and polished beer that goes down easily, but still is full of flavour and good for drinking, even during daytime! I sampled this sixteen ounce can, purchased from Whole Foods in Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia on 14-December-2019 for US$3,25 sampled at home on Easter Sunday, 12-April-2020.

Straightforward, classical hefe, balancing banana, clove, grass, lemon, grain, and yeast with a slightly sweet finish laced with a mild, hay-tinged floral hop bitterness. Nothing challenging, nothing fancy, but well-composed and comforting in its familiarity.

Can at home. Looks flattish with dark tan coloration. Nose is coffee with cream. Tastes of softer coffee than expected, some milk, hint of malt and sarsaparilla. Smooth palate and easy drinking.

Interesting, with a dry, earthy backbone offset by a dense nuttiness and a mild grainy sweetness. Lychee, melon, lemondrops, and honeydew lead to a yeasty, herbal fade. A touch of unwanted tartness pops up in the fade, but otherwise a good pint.

Hazy golden coloured body with an off-white head, only two centimetres tall, with a nice and glowing raw honey tint. Aroma of alcohol, stronger hops and pungency from a the grapefruit and citrus qualities with still a good deal of malt providing a nice balance and some sweetness and fruits. Medium-bodied; Stong citrusey and very perfumey hops with some notes of resin, grass, hay, flowers and a relatively pungent malt presence along with some noticeable grapefruity and bitter profile with a lot of stronger notes, without much respite - perhaps some sweetness from the citrus fruits comes through, but the bitterness stands out as well as some of the alcohol punch and a dose of malt and grain. Aftertaste shows alcohol, grain, pungent hops and earth with a little perfume and a whole lot of citrus fruits coupled with a large bitterness and relatively balanced beer that still shows some dryness and funk. Overall, a nice beer with a good malt backbone and bunches of citrusey and herbal hops and a pungent bitterness throughout. I sampled this sixteen ounce pint sized can, purchased from Total Wine in Newport News, Virginia on 17-November-2019 for US$5,40 sampled on the train from Washington to New York on 05-December-2019.
