Filled a growler of this for our 4th of July BBQ

A: Kind of a neon yellowy color, very hazy, a big frothy head jumps out but recedes quickly. No lacing or retention to speak of.

S: Tons of kumquats, citrus, mostly lemon, a bit of wheatiness and malt, but mostly sugary fruit. You can't really perceive any tartness from the nose, just sweetness.

T: Mellow kumquats and citrus, a bit more wheat and tartness than the nose implied but you can definitely tell that this didn't sour at all.

M: Definitely watery, the carbonation is just ever so present but doesn't really do anything for this beer, sure does go down easily though.

O: Not a bad beer considering it's a salvage job. The fruit flavors and super light body were pretty much perfect for a hot summer BBQ on the 4th of July, almost drank like a lemonade. I don't think I'd get this for any other purpose than sharing on a hot day.

This is not a good beer. I guess I see the appeal of a low alcohol, almost flavorless beer for some settings (4th of July party with Bud-swigging relatives? beer pong?), but not at $10 a bottle. This isn't what I'm looking for from the Bruery. Smells boring, almost like nothing, tastes thin and vegetable-y. The Hottenroth is awesome, but this bastard sibling is nothing of the sort.
