Bells Oberon Ale

Brewed by Bells Brewery
Style: Wheat Ale
Kalamazoo, Michigan USA

Pours hazy straw yellow with a white head. Sweet malt aroma with hints of grass, orange, and wheat. Flavor is similar, spiced wheat, some citrus and a subtle sweetness. Medium to light body, crisp and smooth. Not the best beer in the world but it makes a great grill-out companion.

Hazy yellow-orange with a white head. Malty aroma with cirus and spice. Flavor is subtle, but with a nice refreshing, spicy, lightly hoppy finish. Excellent summer beer. Always has a special place in my heart as the first beer I really liked.

Poured a hazy yellow/orange color with moderate white head. White particles floating throughout. Light malt. Aroma of citrus - grapefruit,orange,tangerine, pear, peach. One or more of those, I cannot decide. More citrus than wheat for me. Flavor of grain, citrus. Easy, smooth finish. Very easy going down. Not overly flavorful - all the aromas and flavor are subtle, and that is no necesarily a bad thing. IMO a very good summer session beer.

Nice wheat malt and spicy hops in the presentation. An excellent summer ale. Dense white head, and classic wheat beer haze.

I’ve been drinking this for years now and never realized that I haven’t rated it. Pours a soft hazy orange with a nice thick frothy white head. Aroma is very very wheaty. Some citrus fruit and sweet fruit nectar. Flavor starts with a big grainy wheat kick with the big grainy flavor. Medium body and moderate carbonation. A definite refresher for the summer.

Pours hazy yellow. Floaters all over the place. Wheaty, and orange zest nose. Flavor is refreshing citrus and some buscuit. Not bad.

Tasting on Easter @ jbean’s. Bells’ answer to Gumballhead, although I liked this a little more: melons, honey and pronounced wheatiness. Again, not a favorite style, but very refreshing.

Tap at pub, Kalamazoo. Hazy dark yellow colour, tiny white head. Aroma has wheat, citrus and yeast. Flavour is grainy, citrus and grassy hops. Refreshing and easy drinkable.
