Pours a nice and hazy gold with a fair amount of creamy head that laces nicely. Smells of citrus rind, orange, lemon and yeast. Tastes as it smells with spice and a little hops and finishes with a dryness. Feels light in the mouth and quenches ones thirst very well. A session beer no doubt and on a summer day this is an oasis.

Out of the 5th bottle from a 6 pack I bought 2 months ago. A citrus type aroma that I can’t really place...maybe like a honey lemon?? I don’t know but smells great. Easy to drink, definitely something I could drink while fishing all day. Goes down smooth and the flavor is nice and refreshing.

Great, fresh citrus and grain aroma with color to match. Easily the smoothest and richest wheat ale I have had. Nice bit of spice and hoppy finish as well in this style beer. Pretty refreshing without being a "candy" beer. One to share with friends.

My favorite ’local’ wheat beer. Similar to to a Blue Moon but a more distinct taste of citrus and spices. Golden-cloudy appearance with white head after the pour. Goes good with a slice of orange during the Summer months. Only gripe.....Please make this beer year round!

Pours a cloudy amber color with some small particules floating about. Foamy white head that leaves some lcing. Aroma of fruit and yeast. Love the flavor of this one. Sweet with some spice. Light carbnonation. Very refresing beer.

Pours a slightly hazy golden orange with a thick white head. Aroma of wheat, citrus, and yeast. Flavor is wonderfullly refreshing with a slight sweetness. I am not a big fan of this category of beers, but this takes the cake for me.

The definition of summer for me. A classic wheat beer. Perhaps it isn’t the absolute pinnacle of the style but it sure is good. Every part of this beer is reminiscent of the season. The palate and flavor profile is bright, wheaty, and pleasantly citrusy. Citrus is non-contrived and adds plenty to an already nuanced beer. Take the Blue Moon away from your friends and hand them this.
