I heard that this was a sour ale, but I don't think it's called one technically. It's based off a Berliner Weiss, which is an actual sour, me loving sours i decided to see if it would scratch the sour itch (haha) and pick a 6 pack up for 9.39.
A- pale straw rich gold color.
S- smells honestly just like some domestic mass produced pale lager. Or the taste of a pale lager more like. Sweet like yeasts.
T- starts off grapefruity sweet and then dives into a mellow sourness. Fricken delish! Then another touch of grapefruit on the long finish and then super pale malts linger for quite awhile. This tastes almost like a sour but then typical beer flavors kick in, such a perfect mix!
M-quite carbonated, makes for it being pretty refreshing.
O- well, I was sceptical. But this beer blew me away! This will be my beer for summer 2013. If you like sours, I'm sure you will LOVE this one as I do! Sours tend to get pretty spendy so for a 6 pack of this costing 9.39ish, I'm very willing to pick this stuff up all the time. Get yourself some!!! Prost!

Look: no head. Crystal clear pale yellow in color. No lacing.
Smell: Like Sprite. Lemon and lime.
Taste: Far to much residual sugar. Hardly any tartness shines through from the Berliner Weisse base. Flavor profile reminds me very much of Shock Top Lemon Shandy. Suprisingly zesty. Sickly sweet bready malt. Finish leaves lingering residual sugar.
Feel: Crisp, light body. Good carbonation.
Overall: Ordered this at a bar because it was there and I hadn't tried it before. Not my cup of tea. Fruit beers can be good from time to time but this is just way to sweet.
