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.

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.

12oz bottle 4/17/09-Pours a cloudy yellowish orange with a nice white head. Aroma of wheat, citrus, and some malt. Taste is of the same with some lemon coming in along with some spices. This light bodied brew was fairly tasty.

Cloudy orange pour with a medium white head. This has a belgian wheaty flavor but with an american ale aftertaste. smell is pretty fruity and malty. This is so refreshing. What an excellent summer beer for barbeques and such.

Poured from the bottle. Pour produced a cloudy, golden-brown body (with floaty bits) topped by a white head of foam. Nose has notes of wheat, citrus and honey. Bitter flavor on first blush, with a moderately sweet middle note, followed by a slight sour-bitter aftertaste. Palate is slightly hopped wheat with a dry finish.

Poured a hazy golden color with a short white head. The aroma was light citrus, malt and wheat. The flavor was lightly spiced citrus and wheat. Drinkable, almost refreshing. Not bad at all for a style I’m kind of meh about.
