Serving notes - shaker glass, cold, this place likes to pour their beers without head for some reason.
A - Wheat predominant flavor in the aroma with some light malt sweetness.
A - Crystal clear. I briefly questioned my waiter if he had brought me the right beer. No real head to speak of.
M - Medium body with medium carbonation.
T - Nice subdued wheat malt flavor is dominant. Somewhat artificial sugar sweetness comes through as well. This beer seems like it is missing a fruit flavor to be a nice fruit-wheat beer of some sort - almost as if it was removed.
D - A little sweet for my taste but a decent wheat malt beer once you get over the appearance.

From a growler purchased at Burby's.
Pours a very very VERY hazy dark yellow color, decent head and lacing, near the end of the growler, chucks of sediment would pour out, I like my sediment but this was to the extreme.
Smell is all yeasty, not much else going on.
Taste is also very yeasty, light carbonation, rather heavy for a wheat ale, interesting bitterness at the end, not quite how to describe it, not entirely inoffensive but not great.
