Yellow color. Medium-sized, white head . Citrus and herbal notes dominate in the aroma. Balanced, malty taste with decent hoppy bitterness. Mix of grains and bitterness in aftertaste. Easy to drink. Definitely good for summer.

Foam, foam, so much foam! I had to pour half the can, let it sit and settle, then pour the rest, and still had a mountain of foam rising above the glass when I was done.
The aroma is not what I expected at all - earthy with hints of pepper and herbs. If I didn't know better, I'd guess this was a Saison.
The taste is similarly earthy and peppery with a dry, bitter finish. It tastes more like a Saison than a hoppy wheat ale.
Mouth feel is full and effervescent.
Overall, this is weird and unexpected. It smells and tastes like a Saison. As a Saison, it's fine. As a hoppy wheat, it's weird. Makes me wonder if it got infected, which would explain the Saison character and all the foam.
