Poured from 12 oz bottle into a pint glass. Looks good!! Dark gold hazy color with a medium size frothy white head. Head retention is good. Leaves some frothy lacing on the glass. Aroma is very faint, a bit of malt - that's it. Taste is slightly sour malt, perhaps a touch of coriander and a little bit of late bitterness. Not much Mouthfeel is robust enough with a little bitterness in the finish. OK, not great. A lawnmower beer or something to pound down with wings/snack food.

Pours a clear, pale yellow with a thick, white head that is slow to fade. Smell is corriander, yeast, and grass, all slightly faint. Flavor is fairly crisp, wheat, fresh grass, and lemon. Medium light body, lingering flavor. Overall, not bad. Not something I'd buy again, but it's working with some nachos during a football game.

12 oz bottle. Pours golden with short-lived, fluffy white head and lively carbonation. Aroma is of citrus fruit, grassy hops and bready malt. Body is medium and crisp. Taste is terrible, unpleasantly bitter and sour. I did not finish the bottle.

12 oz bottle, "bottled on 9/1/17"
Pours lighter amber, with a moderate haze, off white mini cap, goes to a fine bubble film and leaves minor low strands of lace..
Yeasty sniff, earthy n phenolic...better then decent
On the palate, this one is clean, crisp and flavorful, with some Belgian kinda yeast showing up and adding to the complexity and intrigue. Yeast, wheaty, some bubble gum...nice American take on a Belgian style brew...well done and well worth a try...as usual this was a decent value at BJ's, I believe $9.99 for the sixer..go get some
