Disappointed. Very smooth and easy to drink, but beyond that, not much with a flat, bland aftertaste. I thought I’d never say something bad about Bells. Damn.

Great, fresh citrus and grain aroma with color to match. Easily the smoothest and richest wheat ale I have had. Nice bit of spice and hoppy finish as well in this style beer. Pretty refreshing without being a "candy" beer. One to share with friends.

overall very good beer - aroma is excellent, with hint of citrus. first taste goes down smooth, with increasing hop bitterness throughout. very refreshing beer.

Draft - Hazed gold, creamy white head. Light honey wheat and citrus aromas warm to a touch of grassiness. Faint bready wheat and citrus flavors balance each other well. Light bodied with soft carbonation. Decent for a lawn mower chugger...

Bottle shared with Barrios at work. Golden clear with small white head. Lemon citrus is faint in the aroma. Ever so slightly bitter. Wheat taste. Fair I suppose, but I didn’t care for this personally.

The flavor is corn and wheat mingling with lemon zest and lightly accented grapefruit with clover hops and honeysuckle coming through in the finish. Nice.

Smells wonderful and pours a cloudy amber with a nice frothy white head. Out standing wheat flavor with just a little extra hops to define it from it German predecessor. Still a little to sweet.
