Pours out a nice cloudy almost pale orange juice color with a small white lively head. Aroma is of spice and some lemon zest. Taste is nice and smooth, very drinkable with notes of citrus and some spice here and there, some yeast on the finish. Very solid white ale

Bottle- Pours initial sparkling gold, and then seems to haze up a bit. Nice frothy 2 finger head. Aromas are zesty citrus (like juice), nutmeg, yeast. STraight forward, but pleasing. Pretty sweet orange flavour, again, like juice. Mildly spicy with yeasty citrus rind finishing it off. Seriously drinkable. Bottle bought at Beer Depot in Ann Arbour, MI.

pricey, but very nice. Has spicy attributes I dislike in other beers, yet work well in the context of this beer.

Bottle. Light golden beer with a white head. Big spice flavor with some lemon, banana, and a cloying aftertaste. Yeasty, spicey aroma. Medium bodied. Higher carbonation. Some metallic notes.

Slightly cloudy and very pale in the glass with an impressively fluffy head. Nose was heavy on hops and orange. Flavoe was very light and crisp. Definitely a thirst quencher for a hot summer day. Drinkable but not much flavor.

11 fl oz bottle. Golden with a slight white haze. Sourish apple and apricot nose. Wonderful aroma. Taste is also a bit sour. Thin-bodied. Not much flavour. Aftertaste is almost non-existent without the yeast in the bottle. Pouring it in makes is more palateable and soft.

Bottle from Super Saver. Lovely turbid pale golden pour with 2-finger fluffy white head on this. Noce aroma of hopcitrus and spices up front, including cloves and orange zest. The palate is extremely smooth, with the aforementioned hopcitrus, clove, and orange zest flavors, and the beer picking up some apparent palate heft and complexity as it warms up a little and the flavors marry a bit. This one is great!

Hazy white body with a fizzy white head. Strong spiced aroma, and a milder sweet spiced flavor. Taste is somewhat comparable to Earl Grey.
