Body is hazy medium yellow, unfiltered. Aroma is lightly malty (cereal, grain), lightly hoppy (herbs), with light notes of soap. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly to moderately sweet, lightly acidic, lightly to moderately bitter. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. Not bad. muzzlehatch (4427), Burlington, Vermont, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 14, 2002 Updated: May 18, 2004Aug 02: Slightly yeasty, fruity nose; not so much wheat, and the fruit seems to be of the soft yellow (peach-apricot) type rather than the typical lemon. Hazy yellow-golden color. Very hoppy, full-bodied, not as sweet as many wheats I've had lately; apricots seem prominent in the mix to me; this seems to be a cross between an APA and a wheat if you ask me, not entirely successful but well worth a try.
May 04: Most of what I said 2 years ago holds true, except it seems to me the aroma is more dilute, and the body is just a little too thick, and too sour at the finish. Too heavy to be refreshing, not complex enough to be really interesting. Ehh. bhensonb (4342), Woodland, California, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Feb 11, 2009 Bottle from Archer Liquors. Hazy orange color with a few white bubbles for head. Slightly strange aroma of citrus/wheat. Thin bodied with mild but prickly carbonation. It is indeed fruity. The noble hop spice makes me think of a pommander in a way. I can’t think of a similar beer. Pretty tasty in a rather different way. heemer77 (4312), Savannah, Missouri, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 23, 2004 Updated: Jul 3, 2008I have had this numerous times in bottles and again on tap. I much prefer the bottled version. I setect a lot fewer oranges than I did a few years ago. On tap. Has a nice medium head on top of the light gold and orange body. The smell is oranges and a little grass. The taste is very refreshing. Tastes of oranges. A great lawnmower beer if I have ever had one. BBB63 (4253), La Porte, Indiana, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | May 25, 2003 On Tap (Yogis Bloomington IN) - Huge creamy head on top of the hazy golden colored beer, thin bodied. All the characteristics of a white (wit) wheat beer, citrus nose, a little spicy on the palate. Well balanced for a wheat, finished with lingering wheat taste. Not as big and complex as others in the genre, but a very drinkable brew. cgarvieuk (4198), Edinburgh, Scotland

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 6, 2006 Draft @ Bell’s Eccentric Cafe: Hazy yellow color with an off-white head. Light fruity aroma with notes of both red and green apples. The flavor was light and fruity with a touch of spice. Light body. Skyview (4061), Papoose Jct., Minnesota, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 9, 2007 A bonus beer sampled at Cellar’s LexLarp in St Paul. From the bottle it poours a golden amber with a very thick white head. Aroma of wheat, citrus, nutmeg and some banana. Taste is a little flat with hints of citrus, wheat and nutmeg. A light watery finish. A bit overrated but palatable.
