look: 3 | smell: 3 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3 | overall: 4.5

Reviewed solo poured into a shipyard pint glass.

Appearance: cloudy yellow and tan with a 1 finger of head that dissipated quickly.

Smell: not much but I get a hint of wheat and light malts.

Taste: this is one dimensional and opens with a wheat profile which is consistent throughout the the end as subtle red tang finishes this brew leaving little in the aftertaste.

Mouthfeel: light bodied, slightly flemey with medium carbonation.

Drinkability: I would have this again on a hot summer day. I recommends to those seeking a solid wheat profile wit a subtle red fruit tang. Better alternative than BMC.

look: 2.5 | smell: 3 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 2.5 | overall: 2.5

355ml bottle. Shaker glass. Enjoyed on agt´11. Bright golden color, chill haze in appearance. Brief, white, head leaves some spotty lacing on sides. Yeasty – fresh bread- & fruity aromas. Moderate fruit sweetness followed by dry bitterness with grape zest notes. Bread crust hues in the middle, slightly harsh grainy sensation. Medium body, medium carbonation. Quite bland & flat. Not as refreshing as expected from a Pale Wheat.

look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5

Appearance - Pours a very hazy, pale yellow color with a half inch thick frothy head that dissipates instantly. Has pretty nice lacing.

Smell - Pale malts, sweet and tarty, and light aroma of pomegranate.

Taste - The pomegranate isn't as strong in the flavor, but it's very sweet/tarty. Pale malts, wheat, and a subtle spiciness at the end. Has minimal bitterness.

Mouthfeel - Medium bodied with low carbonation.

Overall - It doesn't taste like I expected but it's pretty good.
