A very good beer. Very smooth with a perfect balance. A great ale for summer or anytime really.

Draught at Old Dominion Brewhouse, Washington DC
Blond color. Light aroma. Medium bodied, with some malt flavor and correct bitterness. Not exciting, but drinkable.

Bottle from MrChopin, thanks man! Poured a hazy orange-yellow color with a thick white head that stuck around nicely and left some spotty lacing. Spicy aroma of wheat with some soft orange peel, light lemon, and a bit of yeastiness. Crisp, lightly spicy entry leads into some fresh wheat and a bit of smooth orange and just a hint of floral hoppiness. Crisp on the palate with soft carbonation. Nice wheat.

Bottle @ Chris o’s Pre-Beer Exposed Tasting, September 2008.
Pours murky and muddy, pale yellow with a small, creamy, white head. Aroma is wonderfully fruity, melons, grapefruit and lemons. Light and elegant mouthfeel. Flavour, though, is a bit dull. Some good fruitiness and sweetness, but just feels a bit average.

12 oz. bottle - thanks to beerlando for the trade; pours a beautiful hazy light orange with frothy off-white head; aromas of lemons, grass, wheat and stale grain; aromas sort of on the rich side; bready, raw grain, lemons, yeast and honey; very nice texture and great beer overall; could drink plenty of this

Pours a cloudy straw color with no head. Decent lacing. Aroma of wheat and fruit. Flavor of fruit-orange, wheat. Nice combination for a summer beer.

Bottle. Poured a clear gold into a shaker. Aroma of wheat and oranges. Flavor is spicy wheat with a citrus afternote. Medium body with good carbonation.
