Bottle. Pours hazy orange, white head. Light scent of citrus, some wheat. Tastes as its aroma suggests, but with yeasty flavor to boot. Finishes clean.

I got a six pack of this last summer and thought it was pretty average. It improved after 2 or 3, but overall, it was just a typical American wheat beer, golden orange in color, little white head, and just a regular tasting beer-beer. Not anything exciting to speak of. I had it on tap and recommended it to people who were eating with me and they were disappointed as well.

Pours an active fizzy off white head with a hazy orange colour. Aroma of wheat, yeast, and citrus fruits. Initial taste is again very active mouthfeel with good wheat presence. Dough & earthy characters make a slight appearance before finishing into a orange & bitter hops finish. Crisp finish & Medium body.

Outstanding beer. Fruity and complex, with a very nice finish. This is a regular resident in my icebox during the time it is available.

Clean, crisp taste with an orange and spice taste. Very refreshing and highly drinkable. Leaves the wonderful clean finish on your palate that is always enjoyable, especially when it is warm outside.

On tap, pours a very hazy orangish, thin white head. Not much in the nose, but it could be the bar. Taste is light and zesty (wish there was a better word), lightly fruity like tangerine? Bready, More of a spice than hop flavor, I like this beer, but to finally think about the flavors to rate it,

Tap. Pours cloudy orange with a light sudsy white head. Smells of fruits and yeast. Tastes of spice, fruit and wheat. Light bitter aftertaste. Goes well with an orange.
