Pours cloudy gold/yellow with lots of floaties. It has a an aroma of lemon, wheat, orange peel, and soap. The flavor is yeasty, a touch of spice, soapy and a nice backbone of honey/caramel sweetness, but pretty dry for the most part. It ends on a nice citrus peel bitterness. This was a nice refreshing summer beer.

Bottle courtesy of Devil’s Advocate from Fever. Thanks! Dark yellow, almost orange pour. Very tasty, especially for a wheat, which I don’t drink often. It has a slightly spicy, very saison feel to it. Earthy, but also subtle sweet fruits - apricot, etc. Not overwhelmingly sweet, but good sweetness that you would expect from a summery wheat.

Bright orange yellow color with a dense head. Aroma is really nice. Sweet with some zesty citrus hops. Very clean, but don’t age this one. Very floral taste and bright and refreshing. Love those mini kegs. Great beer.

Bottle. Poured light gold, with some floaties, small white head. Aroma of light grain, wheat, light citrus hop. Taste is similar, with the malt/grain flavor equalizing the wheat and citrus characteristics. Some mild bitterness in the finish. Mouth is light and very drinkable. Overall, a nice simple brew.

BPW #39 Served on tap at Kalamazoo Brewing Co./Eccentric Café. Appearance is pale gold with a small white head. The aromas and flavors are sweet pale malts, light creamy wheat. This could be nice on a hot summer day.

Dan’s Bachelor Party Extended Weekend Rating #37 of 90. On tap at the Eccentric Cafe in Kalamazoo. Pours cloudy light orange. Has a mild hoppy/wheat nose and taste. This seems to be getting more and more popular around me, though I am not a huge fan, much better wheat beers around.
