Pretty golden color, with full fluffy white head and some lacing. Very quiet nose, strong sour front, wheat comes forward in the middle, and a quick quiet close. Nothing surprising, but pleasant.

12 fl oz. can, iCanned on 11/03/15. My third beer from People's Brewing Company, acquired a single can as part of a mixed six pack at the local Binny's.
Poured to a Duvel tulip snifter.
A - Seems like more than 12 oz. in this can, as it squirt everywhere upon opening. Pours a standard light golden orange body, one finger of thin fizzy white head that dies out rather quickly. Appears adequately carbonated. Looks alright for what it is.
S - Aroma doesn't offer up much. A bit of musty earthy yeast funkiness, and some earthy grassy qualities. Nothing in the way of citrus, lemons, orange or hop content. Subtle notes of creamy wheat. Not a very enticing aroma, but not off-putting either.
T - Taste is the same: earthy, wheaty, slightly funky, with very minor lemon tart. Crisp, creamy, wheaty, funky - are the best words I can use to describe this one.
M - Feel is smooth & crisp, moderately easy-drinking stuff, though not terribly flavorful or interesting.
Overall, underwhelming and not very interesting. Would maybe be better having it fresh or direct from the brewery next time. I look forward to more from People's Brewing Company.

12 oz. bottle into a Helles glass
A - Moderate to heavy pour produces a 2 finger frothy head that is white in color and dissipates moderately paced to a 1/2 finger frothy layer. Beer itself is cloudy and straw color in appearance. Carbonation, what can be seen anyway, rising quickly toward the surface and is moderate in concentration. 4/5
S - The aroma consists of grain, wheat, fresh white bread, yeast, and a grassy hoppiness. Aroma is very focuses on the malt in the profile and is somewhat sweet without smelling anywhere near bitter. There is quite a bit of lemon that comes out as well that complements the sweet malty profile. 3.5/5
T - Lemon fruit (not peel), white bread, and yeast dominate the flavor profile while also allowing grassy hops to play a small part on the back end. No lingering bitterness. Lemon lingers for quite some time but the lingering flavor is only slightly tart. Slightly tart throughout the entire tasting profile. Pale malt really stands out alongside the lemon note. No lingering bitterness. 3.5/5
M - Light carbonation tickle up front transitions to a light crips mouthfeel in the middle and back end of the beer that does not lead to any drying in the slightest. Leaves the palate wet but not slick or coated. Light bodied beer. Very smooth throughout due to the wheat. 3.75/5
O - Not the most flavorful wheat beer that I have had but also not the least flavored wheat beer either. Very light and sessionable with a lemony tartness that is a nice change from the orange peel centric profile that many wheat beers go for. Smooth and quaffable. Very approachable for the craft beer newbie but also appecriable for the craft beer veteran. 3.5/5

Not bad, just not a whole lot going on; one could do a lot worse, but there are definitely more interesting pale wheat ales out there. Generally, any People's brew is a solid choice if you want to drink local in the Purdue area
