Beer score: 6.9
Company: Samuel Adams
ABU: 5.3
IBU: 10
I've read different reports, some saying this is the newest name for the Samuel Adams White Ale which has been around for decades, and others say that no, this is not the same beer. I'm not sure which is true, but I know I tend to like white ales, and this one isn't any different.
Pours a slightly cloudy, pale gold with a frothy head that's quite smooth. Gives off weak smells of grainy wheat and a little sweet citrus.
On the tongue, it comes off as sweet at first, but on the way down there's a light bitterness. Pretty smooth, but not watery, and has hints of orange and maybe lemon, along with some maltiness.
Reminds me more than a bit of Blue Moon Belgian White, but not quite as good. Still, a very decent beer, and I could see spending an afternoon with more than a few of these.
