Really nice orange kind of body and white head. Hint of citrus (lime especially) in the aroma. Very nice flavor, just the right amount of sweet and citrus

unfiltered orangish yellow body topped off with tiny white head. The aroma has a lot of roasted malt with just a little bit of citrus- orange and lime, but there is a bit of an oxidize smell in this bottle. The flavor is very sweet with a bit of honey and lime notes. $1.79 12 oz bottle.

Pours amber with a decent white head. Aroma of citrus and honey. Citrusy flavor with a touch of sweet honey. Some yeasty bread as well as some spice. Very easy to drink, decent carbonation.

This is just aces. Cirtusy, yeast aroma. Pours orange and is completely opaque. Taste starts out with lemon, then segues into yeast and hops and crisp breads. Finishes with a noticeable hop presence.

Very drinkable beer. Nice mild summer wheat beer that I consumed a lot of through out the summer. Nice cloudy look and a great citrusy, yet still hoppy flavor. Great Beer, can’t wait for summer.

Single from Total Wine. An interesting and enjoyable take on an American Wheat Ale. This is proof that American Wheats don’t have to taste like nasty diesel fuel. It also doesn’t pretend to be a German Hefe. This beer has a solid wheat malt base with a tasty, spicy hop flavor. Finely balanced and enjoyable from start to finish. Well done.

huge head, orange/pink grapefruit colour..cloudy. Citric, yeasty, small bitters..very grapefruit-esk. Wheat and lemons bounce about. Very yummy!! medium body, but well balanced. I’ve been waiting forever for Bell’s to make it to Jax, and they start with only 1 beer ordered!!

Poured at the brewpub. It has a cloudy straw colored body with a think white head. The aroma is very wheaty with a fairly strong lemony character. The flavor is nice and light with a slight hop flavor. It is very light bodied and makes an excellent summer drinker.
