The most refreshing beer ever. This + Capital Klosterweisen + Schneideveisse are the only hefeweisen that the world needs.

A great summer beer. Tangy and a bit of citrus flavor. Not the best Bell’s product, but certainly worth trying.

I can’t believe I haven’t rated this one yet. A staple every time I’m in Michigan in the summer. The one’s even served in the bars of the backwoods podunk town I grew up in. Gorgeous cloudy straw-colored beer that almost seems to glow in the right light. Giant foamy white head. Spicy aroma with some hops in the background. Somewhat yeasty although it’s a neutral yeast. Not estery. Malty, spicy, refreshing flavor. Light bitterness and some hop flavor. Medium body. An extremely quenching beer. The best American wheat I’ve ever had.

A very drinkable beer, probably a good one to get you started on Kalamazoo Brewing. A good unique flavor.

Bright orange-golden with a trace of fine bubbles. Fruity-floral almost cidery aroma with hints of resin and caramel. Fairly full mouthfeel, moderate carbonation. Mild sweetness and bitterness with a caramel-resin finish. I could drink a lot of this.

Pours straw yellow. Light citrus nose. Not sweet, not hoppy, just perfectly balanced.

I'm glad to find that this is a wheat ale, because that's what I suspected (it wasn't listed as such), so I guess I'm getting better at this tasting thing. Light golden with the look you'd expect from an American wheat. It's smooth with a grainy flavor and a bare citric edge. Good.
