FunkyBrewster (437), Chicago, Illinois, USA Apr 27, 2009 I’ve been drinking this for some time 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 just a bit of coriander along with the sweet fruit nectar. Flavor starts with a big grainy wheat kick, tastes a lot like a home brew in the mash tun with the big grainy flavor. Gains a slight fruitiness but never picks up another major complexity as it finishes with wheat and bitterness. Medium body and moderate carbonation. A definite refresher for the summer. dmschefke (371), Eastpointe, Michigan, USA Apr 27, 2009 Pours a slightly hazy golden orange with a thick white head. Aroma of wheat, citrus, and yeast. Flavor is wonderfullly refreshing with a slight sweetness. I am not a big fan of this category of beers, but this takes the cake for me. CheersMate1 (770), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Apr 25, 2009 Picked up at Brawleys in Charlotte, North Carolina. Nice wheat aroma. Actually, a fairly pungent wheat aroma. Nice thin head as well, but it is too clear i.e. transparent. Sweet aroma. Very nice aroma. Nice banana aroma. Nice upfront yeast/banana flavor, but the beer isn’t as thick as I thought it would be. Nice sweet flavor as well. A very nice wheat ale. Overall, some great yeast and banana flavors, but thinner than I thought it would be, but has that nice yeast/banana aroma that I love. JaBier (1130), Capital City, Ohio, USA Apr 23, 2009 On tap at Barley’s Smokehouse. Gold/copper pour with a big frothy white head. Creamy and fruity aroma with wheat and hops. Wheat and yeast flavor with a bit of hops. Very refreshing and should make a decent summer beer. joshschneider (6), Chicago, Illinois, USA does not count Apr 22, 2009 This is the perfect summer beer on a hot day. Lemon and other citrus flavors leave you feeling refreshed. fidelis83 (709), Clinton, Iowa, USA Apr 22, 2009 Pours milky orange with a 2-3 finger pillowy off white head that has good retention. Aroma is citrus, a bit of yeasty wheat bread, grass, sour fruits and a slightly dusty sweetness. Flavor is wheat, citrus, grass, lemon drop, nice earthy notes, a nice full yeast profile and a tart, bready finish with a hint of grassy hops. Creamy body with a somewhat low carbonation and nice dry but smooth finish. Nice stuff. arrogantb (695), Denver, Colorado, USA Apr 21, 2009 12oz bottle courtesy of iconoklaztor, thanks! The color is a very light but cloudy orange. It smells more like a pale ale than a wheat beer as described on the label. The taste definitely reveals the wheat and makes for a nice ale. This is very drinkable and a perfect summer offering that I am glad to have tried.
