A traditional American wheat beer. With it's inviting golden color, mellow malted wheat flavor and less hoppy characteristics, it's sure to please those looking for a clean, cool taste sensation on long hot summer days. Available April through August.

"I also had this on tap in Booth Bay, Maine. Tried it out since I saw a few signs for Shipyard up there. Wasn't too bad, a decent brew I might have again. But overall the flavor was too weak-flavored. Easy enough to drink though."

"On tap at a pizza place in Booth Bay, ME. Another completely uneventful entry from Shipyard. Easy drinking, but characterless, and nearly flavorless. If Bernie Bott's made a beer flavored jellybean, this is probably what it would taste like; it is just that standard-issue."

[3] Review by Phil B from Gatineau, Canada who has tried this beer once. (5/16/2007 1:10:39 PM)
"Bottle: Poured a golden color ale with a small bubbly white head with limited retention. Aroma of weak malt with some yeast. Taste of weak wheat malt is overall quite boring with again a weird and off taste of yeast coming through. Light hops at the end provide a dry aftertaste. Definitely boring for a style that doesn’t produce much in term of great beers."

"well this is a halfway decent ale, the look and aroma are average with the style, the flavor had hints of bannana and nut in them. the mouthfeel was clean and crisp, probably will not have again.

[5] Review by Rmussman from Northern, CA, USA who has tried this beer many times. (9/23/2006 10:02:14 PM)
"My favorite Shipyard brew. I always am in Maine during the summer so the summer ale is prevelant. Very smooth beer and has a great summer low key flavor that is enjoyable on the many humid nights in Maine."
