A short-lived, creamy white head reaches one-quarter of an inch before falling and leaving a thin veil. Slight lacing forms on a PBGC American Lager pint glass, while the chill-hazed, golden amber (SRM 5-6) resides within. Occasional tiny bubbles meander upwards to provide some character.
Initially, mild orange citrus is perceived, though it quickly dissipates, leaving cracker grain. Light swirling accentuates wet cardboard or wet grain.
The flavors are mild with citrus and honeydew melon trying to cover wet grain. Cucumber is here and interesting as it does help. The finish is mild and short.
Well-carbonated with a light body and nylon texture. There is no real presence of alcohol.
Despite the scores, this is a drinkable beer, and would be a good refresher after yardwork on a hot, humid day. That said, definitely not recommended for a cold, dreary mid-winter afternoon.

Had it on tap in Nashville in a shaker pint. Cloudy yellow color with little head or lacing. Orange and citrus smell and taste. Not a beer to seek out but it was tasty and went well with dinner.

03/08/18 on bottom of can.
Very clear golden with short-lived offwhite head.
Tangy wheat aroma with splash of orange and lime citrus
Very refreshing citrus and wheat combo with doughy wheat character and lemon-lime citrus hop notes.
Feel is typical thick wheat texture. I wish it was a little lighter bodied and drier in the finish, but still easy to drink.
A nice beer that i am glad I grabbed during our recent trip to Knoxville.

A great beer to have several as you work in the yard or garage. A drink while you “do a project beer.”

Poured from a 12 OZ can into a pint glass. The appearance is a straw color with a medium sized white head. The aroma is wheat and mild hops. The taste follows the nose. A nice wheat beer.
