650ml bottle - a hoppy wheat brew with coconut, summer must be on its way!
This beer pours a slightly hazy, medium golden yellow colour, with three fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and sort of bubbly off-white head, which leaves a bit of random streaky lace around the glass as it quickly blows off.
It smells of bready and doughy wheaten cereal malt, semi-sweet coconut milk, some muddled domestic (ok, Okanagan) citrus flesh, a touch of earthy yeastiness, and some leafy, weedy, and perfumed floral green hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy pale malt, a lesser biscuity wheatiness, sugary coconut, some lemon and orange citrus fruitiness, a touch of mealy banana, ethereal musty yeast, and more underwhelming floral, herbal, and grassy hoppiness.
The carbonation is quite low-key in its innocuous-seeming frothiness, the body a so-so middleweight, and generally smooth, with perhaps a touch of hop acridity taking things down a notch or so here. It finishes off-dry, the mixed malt and fruity esters holding down the lingering kangaroo court.
Overall - this comes across as an all right version of what it claims to be, with the hoppy weissbier melding well enough with the guest coconut to provide a refreshing summer treat. Maybe a tad cloying as it warms, so, um, about that, I've something pressing to get to now!
