Yellow and very murky. Lots of little floaties in this one. Head is white and thick -- average in size for a wheat beer. Lemon and orange zest, sweet malt, and vanilla cookies in the aroma. Cloves and oranges can be found in the malt dominated flavor. Some spicy hops in the finish, rounded out by sour grains and wheat tanginess.

Highly spicy, yet mild, lighter summer beer. A large amount of sludge in the bottom of bottle that made the beer in my glass goopy. Nicely balanced with no bitterness - instead a touch of sourness that compliments the honey flavor. A good beer, but it's hard to believe that Kalamazoo would make something this quiet.

Bottle. Aroma of citurs. Flavor is that of a typical wheat beer, with that of some fruit, citrus, and yeast. Finish is pretty crisp and pretty refreshing.

12 oz bottle from Drewbeerme. Cloudy orange with small nice white head. Aroma is orange, yeasty, wheat, very light malt. Wheat, citrus (a little grape), grain, yeast, slight bananavery nice. Medium body, well carbonated. Didn’t drink this too much when it was the ubiquitios Chicago summer beer but I kind of miss it now.

Cloudy with lots of yeast floating in a medium golden, honey colored beer with an white head that is retained. Aroma is quite sweet with expected wheat aroma, but not the banana and clove I look for. Flavor is quite tasty and mouthfeel is creamy in a good way. One of the really good summer beers.

Probably my favorite american wheat. Just the perfect amount of spices to be present, but not overpowering, great with a nice slice of orange and a cool summers night
