Received a can on 12-2-22 from a friend who for whatever reason bought multiple packs of Advent beers. Canning date on the bottom indicates 23_164_11; consumed 5-30-23.
Beer poured orange brown with a nice white head with the original pour.
Nose is pretty non-descript. Hints of malted wheat and a light touch of cranberries are present.
Taste is a light wheat malt base that has a touch of fruity sweetness. Finishes with a touch of hop bitterness.
Mouthfeel is light bodied and fairly refreshing.
Overall not a bad beer but nothing special.

12oz can
On the pour 2 fingers of white fine head form on top of a lightly hazy dark golden body. Sticky lacing forms. High carbonation.
Aroma is instantly bright and fruity from a distance. On closer sniff, its clearly just the trashy American wheat beer with artificial la croix-esque fruit. The Minhas funk is here and its wheaty this time.
Taste is still disappointing. The added flavor just adds a flavored sparkling water on top of the already bad wheat beer. Slight malt character barely shows up.
Feel isn't really pleasant. At first it seems refreshing because a dryness immediately comes in, but the finish is insanely long and very mouth coating and slippery in the back of the throat. Dryness on the front of the tongue grows past acceptable levels halfway through the beer. Too astringent.
Overall, its the same bad beer as "American Wheat Beer" but with added disappointment in the form of low quality flavorings.

Clear red-gold color with a decent foamy white head that dissipates quickly.
The aroma is tart apple, cranberry and wheat. T
he taste is the same with a slight sweetness up front but finishes fairly dry, like most of these beers there is an odd, maybe artificial note.
The body is light, moderate carbonation, very drinkable.
Altogether this is a fairly tasty and refreshing brew, better than most in this series..

12 oz can served in a Belgian snifter.
Appearance. Clear reddish-amber colored body with a decent white head.
Aroma. Wheat with berries. Slightly medicinal.
Flavor. Follows the aroma but lacking the medicinal trait and with a clearer element of wheat. Also, the aroma suggests a sweet brew but this is mildly bitter with negligible sweetness.

Light amber color (from the cranberries), had a nice foam that didn't last very long though. Does taste like a wheat ale with a slight sweetness. But as the previous one from this box, there is something that does not feel right, here I think it's alcohol coming tru even though this is only 5%...
