$8.99 corked & caged 750 mL bottle from Smyrna World of Beverage, Atlanta, GA, USA.
Disappointing lack of gunsmoke and pop on opening – worrying.
Poured into the Tucher Weizen glass it looks better than I was expecting after the opening. I shouldn’t have worried. Beautiful clouded, old-fashioned lemonade pour with a high, pitted head. Lace is good. Nice.
Yeasty, mild citrus spice in the nose with the emphasis on the citrus. This gets reflected in the taste. Very light orange bitterness mixed in with high drinkability and a refreshingly low ABV. Not much spice or any coriander notes, the emphasis is more on the lemon side of things.
Impossible to put down in the Atlanta heat, this is a great beer for the masses and as a macro replacement. Crossover potential by the boatload.
