Good brew with a orange-amber pour. Citrus and spice in the taste and smell. Definitely one to buy again, but only if I see it on the menu. Nothing real special about it, just a good mix.

Aroma of spice and citrus. Taste of citrus, spice, medium hop, and goodness. This one’s a good ale with a decent amount of complexity. May buy again.

poured into a weizen. nice, 2 finger white head. hazy light orange, or yellow, depending on the angle of the light. couldn’t pick up much in aroma at all. what i could pick up smelled like stale beer that a peach rotted in, although very faint hint of peach. light body, very easy to drink. tastes much better than it smells. very slight hint of peach again and maybe that taste i can’t quite put a finger on is a wheaty flavor?

Pours a nice warm orange color with medium head. Light lacing. Wheat, hops, and alcohol flavor improved with slice of citrus. I don’t believe the hype.

12oz bottle. Pours hazy orangne with white head. Smells of citrus and yeast, taste is citrus and wheat. This is the beer that led to my discovery of craft beer some 11 years ago. Taste buds have really changed since back then but still a good brew.

Bottle. Slightly cloudy orangey-yellow. White head dissipates immediately. Very light citrus hops aroma. Sparkly taste of hops, citrus, pine and an alcohol bite. A hint of spices, like rosemary. I used to down pitchers of this with orange slices in it back in college. Very refreshing and tasty.

My favorite ’local’ wheat beer. Similar to to a Blue Moon but a more distinct taste of citrus and spices. Golden-cloudy appearance with white head after the pour. Goes good with a slice of orange during the Summer months. Only gripe.....Please make this beer year round!

12oz bottle. A great wheat ale! Poured a hazy golden yellow with a medium sized white head. Nose of citrus, European hops and yeast. light-medium in body and a very refreshing finish.
