Second in a series inspired by the iconic fruit cart vendors of Los Angeles. Tastes like freshly cut Melons and the California sun right in your hand. This light, crisp Wheat Ale is bursting with Watermelon, Honeydew, and Cantaloupe flavors, finishing bright and refreshing.

Hazy pale yellow color with a substantial foamy white head that subsides quickly but does manage some nice lacing.
The aroma is watermelon and honeydew.
The taste is the same but with addition of cantaloupe.
The body is light but somehow still smooth and creamy, very drinkable.
Altogether this is a surprisingly pleasant and very refreshing. Should be a good summer session brew.

Large white head with pale golden body. Aromas of wheat and of course, melons with some metallic notes. Plentiful tastes of honey dews and cantaloupe. With the still lasting head it makes for a nice feel, almost like biting into a ripe portion of honey dew. Very refreshing and sessionable. Certainly light on the wheat notes itself but basically a must for someone who like cantaloupe, honeydews, and beer. Very good even though the flavoring may simply be added than brewed.
A surprising amount of particulates on the bottom on this one. Either way. It's good and refreshing, especially while cold.

L- pale yellow that’s pretty clear with a very slight haze to it. Head was very white with small bubbles that diss appeared quickly.
S- very light in aroma. Can pick up melon easily with some wheat and sweet character
T- First there is some wheat taste and then it packs a full punch of melon. Slight astringency on the aftertaste.
F- lightly carbonated with a decent creamy feel for how light this beer is.
O- a decent light summer beer but it’s a lot of melon flavor
