Beer score: 8.2
This was quite possibly my favorite of all the brews from the Sierra Nevada folks, so I was quite disappointed when I went looking for it recently and discovered it's no longer in production. Damn!
Quite possibly the perfect beer for hot weather.
It poured a dark yellow, almost orange color and gave off smells of wheat and maybe a little citrus. Had a light bitterness on the tongue. There was a touch of sweetness right at the beginning, but that dies away after the first sip, though that sweet, almost honey-like quality was still present in the smell.
Had a smooth, fruity quality and a light texture that made this an awesome brew for summer. Basically, this was Sierra Nevada's season brew for Spring.
Must have been a fine trick with the malts to have made such a smooth beer that was known for a high bitterness units rank.
