fordest (1954), Santee/San Diego, California, USA Dec 6, 2007 GABF, 12 bottle. Hazy orange with decent head. Definitley some banana. Some spice flavors too. not bad. dsm (109), Baltimore, Maryland, USA Dec 5, 2007 Light orange color, citrus and wheat taste and aroma with some spice thrown in. Very crisp and mild. A very good beer. Drinking this beer in December makes me think that summer isn’t too far away. Haslinger (640), Syracuse, New York, USA Dec 2, 2007 Excelllent beer, we had a friend who lived down the hall from us who lived in Kalamazoo and would always bring us back cases of it. Always a very happy day as this is an excellent beer. Perfect for sitting on a porch taking in the summer days. Crisp, citrus flavor Zinister (1198), Houston, Texas, USA Nov 29, 2007 Very nice wheat beer. Light orange color with very nice citrus, wheat, and spices. Flavor is a fairly crisp, citrusy wheat ale that is perfect during the summer months. Very enjoyable. JamesMulvenon (21), USA Nov 27, 2007 Very refreshing beer on warm days beside a lake in Northern Michigan. Strong orange citrus taste with a light finish. Served on tap with a large orange slice, but combination of orange tastes is overwhelming at the bottom of the glass. Recommend small slice of orange or nothing at all. Phil (100), Kent, England Nov 26, 2007 Classy classy american wheat. For what it might lack in lactic bite, likewise the flavours that I have come to note in the more available German and Belgian whites, this is one really good beer. I can see what this beer is intended for and on a hot summers day, cool not cold, that beer would rip a thirst from my throat no doubt. Light citrus, rather than intense.
footbalm (1218), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA Nov 24, 2007 This was at one time one of my summer staples. The problem is, I had so many different brews in the cellar that I got away from buying this. This is a great lightly flavored beer for a hot summer day. Funny, the wheat seemed less obvious to me as I always git a bit of citrus and then the wheat as a backdrop. A nice summer refresher. Do they change this recipe year to year? tytoanderso (1382), St. Louis Park, Minnesota, USA Nov 20, 2007 Bottle. Crisp, slightly sweet and zesty aroma. Some orange peel, lots of grain and a faint wheat sweetness. Pours cloudy bright orange. Flavor is crisp and refreshing with a touch of wheat sweetness, citrus zest and a grain back bone. Medium bodied. This beer used to be more wheat focused without the harsh graininess, but still is nice on a hot summer day.
