    Overall Impression (3)
    Yellow, translucent. High carbonation. Thick tight head. Fresh citrusy aroma, on a spicy background. Light-medium fizzy body. Big fresh slightly grainy malt flavor underlies the coriander and sweet wheat flavor. Quick clean finish. It's not exactly the same as the Austin version, but it's damn tasty.
