Found this on tap at Mowie's Cue in Springfield, and it was served in it's own slender 312 weizen glass. This one is lemon yellow and hazy with a small cap of fizzy bubbles.

The scent is very weak, but I smell mainly lemon hop notes.

Refreshing and light bodied, this one is lemony and quite highly hopped. This is an interesting blend of a wheat beer and a pale ale that is worth trying. I would like to pick up a sixer of this next summer for sessioning.

Serving type: on-tap

12 oz bottle into a pint glass.

A: Pours a hazy golden color. A rocky two-finger white head is formed; it doesn't have the best retention by any means.

S: Bland. Touches of lemon esters augment some faint noble hopping...and that's about it.

T: It starts with a bit of lemon, and ends with wheat malt flavors. This is really damn bland, though hardly a bad brew.

M: A bit too chalky on the palate - as such, it's not as drinkable as it could be.

O: Did I mention bland? Yeah. It's completely inoffensive though, so this wouldn't be a bad choice if the only other offerings were BMC (wait a minute...)
