Even Lager Louts will find this drinkable. Light enough for hot weather but goes well with heavy sauces and red meats.

Bottle. Hazy pour. Citrus and lemon on the aroma. Some hop bitters in the aftertaste. Very smooth and wheat flavor straight up. Smooth and a great summer beer.

Cloudy on the pour. Bitter presence greets the tongue but finishes with a nice fruit taste.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy ruby golden orange color with a large white head. Smells is sweet and fruity with malt and hop notes. Big citrus tones in the aroma and the taste. Not really my type of beer, but it is always nice to have it in the summertime. This one belong in the summer time with friends and sunshine, ALways nice to have this back on the shelves to have at those BBQs

A very summery beer. Very cloudy and thick, with particulates throughout. At first underwhelming, but flavor builds with time. By the end of the glass, I felt it was an excellent beer. Since it is thicker holds cold well... and flavor is satisfying.

Draft. Orangish hue with a light head. Nice hoppy aroma. Taste is fruity, but doesn’t last long. A mildly hoppy finish.

Bottle from Archer Liquors. Hazy orange color with a few white bubbles for head. Slightly strange aroma of citrus/wheat. Thin bodied with mild but prickly carbonation. It is indeed fruity. The noble hop spice makes me think of a pommander in a way. I can’t think of a similar beer. Pretty tasty in a rather different way.
