A&S - Pours a hazy yellow, with a 2 finger foamy white head. Reeks with lemon peel, very pungent like Pinesol. Some banana, belgian yeast, with a hint of earthiness and alcohol.

T&M - The super light body hits you mouth crisp and sour, tons of citrus, a little wheat along with other malts, a little oakiness, with a some alcohol finish followed by a piney aftertaste.

O - Overall a great brew. Ill be picking up some more if I see it around. I'd definitely drink this over similar brews like Festina Peche. This beer resembles everything good about Hefes, Saisons, and Berliner Weisses. Nice hop profile that doesn't shine until your half way done, nice Saison style yeast, as well as that BPA alcohol burn. Excellent brew from RRBC.

A - pours a cloudy blonde with a standard white head. Some lace. Too cloudy to see bubbles.

S - intensity is quite mild. Pale malt, mild banana, mild spicy Belgian yeast and a dusting of Euro hops. Nothing special.

T - is similar to the aroma. I get mostly pale malt from it with some Belgian yeast and a hint of spice and floral on the finish. Yay?

M - light body, effervescent and creamy. Slightly tart. Low bitterness. Excellent mouthfeel and easily the best part of this beer.

O - a well brewed beer, true to a classic style, but it doesn't do much for me.
