Look: Pale, Golden
Smell: Smells very unremarkable like a Bud Light
Taste: For a wheat beer, it's surprisingly light and crisp. I can taste the hint of pineapple behind an almost Heineken tasting beer
Feel: The feel is light-medium but more light than medium on the palate

Like others have said, this is a very unremarkable beer, but it is very pleasant. I'd give it a higher score, but I realize that it didn't wow me. It feels like it would be a nice staple to always have in your fridge instead of the Buds and whatevers.

 

 

Poured from a can into a pint glass
Appearance – The beer pours a heavily hazed orange-yellow color with a puffy head of white foam. The head has a good level of retention, fading over time to leave some streaks of foamy lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell – The aroma of the brew is strongest of a wheat bread smell mixed with a good deal of pineapple, banana, and orange. Along with these smells comes notes of lemon and hay as well as a touch of apple and grape.
Taste – The taste begins with a bready wheat taste that is accented with a decent orange and pineapple sweetness. Mixed in there are flavors of yeast and some banana and clove, as well as a little bit of lemongrass and harvest fruits. As the taste advances there is an increase in the spice all while some of the fruits of banana and orange fade a bit. At the same time a graininess begins to develop more and more, and with a light lime taste coming in at the end, one is left with a wheaty and moderately pineapple and fruit sweetened hefe taste to linger on the tongue.
Mouthfeel – The body of the brew is medium in thickness and creaminess with a carbonation level that is higher. For the style and the fruit tastes the feel is rather nice, complimenting the wheat well, all while keeping it very easy drinking.
Overall – A rather enjoyable and easy drinking wheat brew. Nothing too extraordinary, but a good one to try none the less.

Glad to see a new one from Real Ale on the shelves.

The can said "with pineapple." Don't know if it's a different beer, and needs to be added, but I'm fine with believing that it's the same beer as this. If I turn out to be wrong on this, mods please make the necessary adjustments.

A real nice wheat, with all the expected bells and whistles, and a hint of pineapple.

Refreshing and delicious.

 

 

pours a super hazy mellow yellow body with a slight orange glint to it, and billowing big-bubbled chalk white foam head that tops out at 2.5 fingers and holds it's fluffy rocky self with moderately high retention, leaving occasional big bubbled sudsy lacing behind as it slowly settles to a thin solid cap

aroma is super juicy, sweet and tangy pineapple with floral edges and orange peel bitterness in the back with a softly sweet wheaty backbone

taste follows then nose. the sweetness is subtle and soft, though it is quite juicy. pineapple, orange, and lemon meringue pie with a subtle floral hoppy bitterness peppered by orange peel.

mouthfeel is high carbonation and medium-light bodied, soft and pillowy with a touch of chewiness. finishes lightly dry and sparkling with a juicy sparkling pineapple and rind aftertaste

overall:
super solid. easy and juicy and not too sweet with a comfortable feel to it. exciting and complicated enough to dive in and be rewarded, easy enough to just sip and let it be. don't miss this one if you dig luscious juicy tropical brews.
