Poured into an English pint glass, the appearance was a glossy yellow color with a ton of floaties all about. Don't ask me what those floaties actually are, I just see them. Superb looking sudsy white head with a settling lace speckling my glass.
The aroma had some pulled lemon pulp, "chilled lime peel," some orange rind and an ample amount of grassy hop sweetness.
The flavor seems to come home through the sweetness of the lemon and lime, really blends very well. Aftertaste of lemon and lime pulpy juice, some grassiness.
The mouthfeel was almost medium bodied but sat just a touch under with a spectacular sessionability about it. Good carbonation with some stickiness. Slight sticky finish of lemon and lime.
Overall, ya know, I really like this but why am I having this only now right before a Noreaster is about to hit here? In other words, I would much rather have this preferably in the Summer.

16 oz shaker at T-Bones, Bedford, NH. Reviewed 7/27/19.
Appearance – 3.5.
First pour – Unknown
Body – Yellow, hazy.
Head – Chopped by bartender. Remainder off-white, dense, average retention, 3.5 mm crown and complete cap.
Lacing – Good. Wide bands of tiny to small bubbles, connected by thin columns.
Aroma – 3 – Even with some serious horning, can’t smell anything.
Flavor – 3 – Some very weak lemon, no lime. No alcohol taste or aroma (5 % ABV), no diacetyl, no dimethylsulfide.
Palate – 3 – Thin, watery, lively carbonation.
Impression and interpretation – 3 – Wouldn’t have guessed this was a wheat ale. At least it was cheap.

A moderately strong pour from a 16 oz. can dated 5/31/18 into a 20 oz. mug creates a 1/2 inch fizzy and foamy white head that quickly thins to a ring. No lacing at all, clean mug at the finish.
Grapefriut juice colour with semi-opaque haze.
Wheat malt and yeast combine for a wheat dough smell with citrus and hops.
The taste starts with a thiner maltiness plus yeast and citrus. The middle taste is rich sweet malt, citrus with a balanced hop finish. The hop profile blends with the added lemon and lime peel for a orange juice affect.
Light to medium bodied with medium carbonation. There is a slight astringency to the finish that dose not linger to long.
Well balanced and true to style, another home run for my favorite local brewery.
Not to hoppy or pricey. This review was written in real time, Sox are beating the Yanks 10-0.
