Bottle. Totally cloudy apricot-orange color. Mild citrusy smell with some cookie and apricot pastry smells. Thin body. Yeasty, but hoppy ending. Pretty boring.

Just got a fresh bottle from the year’s new batch. Everything about it was great except it didn’t smell as strongly as I remember it. Poured a medium, hazy copper color. Medium body with a strong flavor, but not overly so. Definitely a very drinkable beer. Spring has arrived!

Very citrussy ale with almost a sour flavor. Definitely wheaty and fruity. Tried this on draft at a local GrillSmith restaurant. Nice frothy head.

Opened it today hoping for hotter summer heat. Pours a hazy orange color, kind of looks like it should have orange peels in it. The smell is faint spices and the taste is of strong spices and fruit. Kind of a weird beer.

Very cloudy, dirty light orange look to it with some head but it settles down quickly. Aroma is malty and yeasty with a touch of fruit. A refreshing citrus fruity flavor with some spices and hops. Not complex but enough there to make a good wheat.

The standard by which I measure wheat beer. Served with an oragne wedge at Mad Mex. Very drinkable, and it seems to get better as the weather gets warmer.

Bells Oberon Ale is a very refreshing American Wheat ale. The color is a hazy orange with a very refreshing and subtle aroma. The flavor is mild and sweet with hints orange and other citrus fruit. This is a very nice beer for a sunny day!
