A fantasic beer for warmer weather. This beer has a luxurios frothy head, that sticks around. Very smooth, a bit cloudy. Lots of crisp citrusy, but not sweet flavors. No doubt a good hop bitterness is present.

Can’t imagine a wheat ale looking any better...pours a rich murky golden/orange with a huge creamy white head with great staying power. Spicy wheat aroma, sweet. Creamy hot orange wheat flavor. Med/full body for a wheat with light carbonation. O wow... Buchdich is right... the finish does taste like vitamin C, bitter.

Classic summer beer that I can no longer get in Illinois :( Pours a cloudy yellow with a thin white head. Heavy citrus aroma. Nice citrus flavor in the beer as well and just a little bit of spices. A great summer wheat.

This has to be by far my favorite summer beer. First enjoyed on a warm Michigan summer day after a round of golf, and back up in the clubhouse, I’ve continued to enjoy this great brew from Bell’s each and every summer. My only complaint is that I live in AZ and don’t exactly have free access to it, as I once did. But visit back home every July, I try to have it with as many meals and on as many occasions as I can so as to really get my "fill" each summer. Very refreshing!

Draft: Poured a cloudy golden yellow with a nice head. The aroma was definitely citrus. The flavor was coriander, wheat, lemon and a hint of cucumber. Overall, a very good Wheat...very smooth.

A summer time favorite here in Michigan, normally served with a slice of orange, I however prefer it without.
