There's a little more sun in this then Coors, but it is light and clear. Nice froth that stays and sticks adoringly. Smells like wheat, and a little coriander.
Wonderful smooth grain followed by light fruit. White grapes... Wheat cracker. A couple of cracked white peppercorns, dried lemon peel. Very crisp. Not too carbonated, just right. Delicious. They really hit on this one, like their spring bock.

12 oz bottle. Pours a clear light yellow with a fizzy white head that quickly goes to a thin film.
The aroma is floral hops, bready malts and some yeast with a little clove-like spiciness.
The flavor is sweet malts with a touch a citrus, then a subdued floral hop finish that is lightly bitter. It's a nicely balanced beer. It is medium to full bodied (surprisingly so for a lighter beer) with a good texture.
Overall, a mild beer but very well done. I don't normally go for lighter beers, but this is very well made and clean with no off flavors whatsoever.
