Clear orange amber, slight white head. Full oily body. The cranberry aroma is subdued. Honey sweet taste fairly well balanced with fruit tartness. Finish is yeast and a bit boozy.

Can. 1$ off the clearance rack, hehehehh. Darker off orange pale hazy stuff. Even with a stuffy nose I get an artificial sweet fruit nose. Yes, fruity on the uptake but I'm not sure if I can say its watermelon or not, it just tastes fru-fru-fruity. Not as tart as I would like it to be but, I don't really pick out any of those nasty bitter wheat ale attributes. The fruit and the wheat ale seem to be nicely meshed. I'd say its less of a wheat ale and more of a fruit beer. Probably should be style as such. Pretty good beer tasting attitude, Can't really find anything negative about this except that I wish it was a little more tart to make it quite interesting. Finishes with just a tad of that processed feel. Overall, its better than expected, good job there fish. I was putting this off for a while as it sat in my fridge but now I'm glad I finally popped it. You can't judge a beer by its label, hehehheh.

1$ can on the clearance rack. Pour is yellow orange with a slight haze. Big fat fading head. Nose is somewhat fruity. Right off the top I was fooled by the word 'smoothie' - this has no resemblance to a smoothie at all. Yes some fruit in there but mostly it has a lot of those standard negative wheat ale flavors and attributes in there. Yea, I didn't want to drink this cause I thought it was going to taste like a sugary tart smoothie, but I was tricked into buying a wheat ale again. Oh well, at least its worth a tick, hehehh. Either way, smoothie or wheat ale, not liking this. Finishes like a medium bitter wheat ale and some mango hints.

Amber with a large foamy white head that lingered. Sweetish and tangy with faint fruit and perfume. Medium finish and body.

Go Birds!!! Beer is okay, classic pale ale. Zippy, floral. Winding down work with a couple of parties on the docket later today.

Not overly sweet, still a bit roasty and bitter at the back end.
