Good beer, but after more than three the fruit flavor starts getting to me. A little sweet and a little too much body for a summer ale for me, but I’m from the south and it gets hot fast down here. Not a thirst quinching as I’d like.

Bottle pours a slight cloudy golden orange color with a medium sized head. Sweet aroma of mostly orange and wheat. Great flavor for a wheat beer with a nice mixture of spices and hops. A pleasant surprise.

This beer might be the best american wheat ales in existence. Pours kind of orangish, hazy with a white head. Great spicey wheat flavor and nice finish. Good carbonation and great mouthfeel, and an awesome summer beer.

Oh my god, summer is here. When you live in Michigan this is the first tell tale sign. A superb wheat ale with hints of orange. Get on tap, serve in a shaker, garnish with orange. Recipe for an excellent day.

From bottle. August Dayton Beer Tasting event - Favorite Summer Brews. Classic American Wheat beer. Pours a deep hazy orange. Head dissolves a little too quickly. Nice mouthfeel with apricot, honey and wheat flavors lingering. One of my favorite summer beers.

One of my new favorite beers. Looks like orange soda pop in the glass, awesome. Strong flavor of orange and a bold sweetness. This beer is full of bitter, sour, citrus, spice, caramel, wheat, yeast, and dried fruit, and apricot flavors. Medium bodied and soft in the mouth with decent carbonation. Finishes dry. Very complex and well balanced beer.

Bottled(355ml). -Light cloudy orange/golden coloured, small white head, few streams of carbonation. Sweet malty, light honey wheaty and weak fruity taste with notes of bread, orange peel and camomile. Dry finish, but overall quite weak beer.
