On tap at Big Al Brewing. Poured into a standard pint glass.

A - Clear golden straw color, half-finger of head that fizzled away, very little lace.

S - Mild scent, wheaty with a hint of honey

T - Nice honey sweetness note to the flavor, wheaty grassy finish.

M - Crisp, light medium body, very soft carbonation

D - Per the name, a great summer beer for when you just finished mowing the lawn in the heat of the day. Nice and mild, but refreshing and not filling.

Served in straight pint glass. Poured a clean, clear, bight gold color with a thin cap of white head that had low retention and lacing.

The aroma started with a nice grassy grain scent, had some good, gentle hopping and just a hint of yeasty spice in the background. The flavors were much the same, fresh grain, mellow hops and a touch of yeast.

The body was pleasantly light, clean and crisp. Drinkability was very good, you could enjoy several of these easily. Overall, a very nice brew for the warmer weather (if it ever arrives). Worth seeking out.
