Maybe a bit too much citrus, but like it a lot. I just don’t understand the "cult status" it seems to enjoy to many who have raved about it to me. I want to try it sometime on tap, also want to try it side-by side with their Amber Ale, Pale Ale, and Winter Ales. I think I’ll buy up a fresh 6 pack about the time the Winter Ale comes out, or maybe make a pilgrimage to their Cafe in K-Zoo.

Very refreshing beer on warm days beside a lake in Northern Michigan. Strong orange citrus taste with a light finish. Served on tap with a large orange slice, but combination of orange tastes is overwhelming at the bottom of the glass. Recommend small slice of orange or nothing at all.

A cloudy yellowish orange with lots of suspended particles swirling around in it. It has a thick white head that left lots of frothy lace.Smell is great with citrus, wheat, and spice. Taste has the wheat, citrus, spice and hops which all make an appearance but none are amazing. Just a little bitter at the end.

Pours a hazy gold with a medium-thick white head. Wheat and a little sugar on the nose. Flavors of wheat, yeast, with a slight hop bitterness at the end. High carbonation and flzvor are very reminisent of a Belgian-style ale. Very good.

12-oz bottle. Yellow gold cloudy color. Very nice white head. Doughy aroma with some spice. Lightly sweet up front. Medium-to-light body. Silky soft texture. Very pleasant.
