ABV: 4.2 percent
Appearance: Summer Shandy pours a pale version of a straw/gold color. It also appears to be very thick, hazy and foggy. The head begins thick and fluffy, but fades away fairly quick. Don't expect much lacing as you continue to sip it.
Smell: The tartness of the lemonade that makes up most of this beer is ever so present. The wheatiness of the rest of the beer's body is just an afterthought when compared to the strength of the lemony scent in this brew.
Taste: The lemon and citrus is what hits your tongue first. The first inclination I got upon sipping this beer was that it was a very powerful lemonade. The wheat and yeast kicks in for a faint and malty after taste.
I've been looking to try this beer for a good while now. I was fairly pleased with it. It doesn't exactly taste like your typical beer, nor should any shandy. This is a crucial aspect I think one needs to know before drinking one of these. It will be a very different experience from any ordinary beer. This was far from the paved roads, so to speak. I love adventurous beers like this one.
