One of my favorite beers. Nice witt beer quite cloudy with a citrus aroma and also sweet, very nice when the wether is hot. Very drinkable beer

Tap. Part of a back log. Hazy yellow with a white head. Lemon and other citrus flavors. Some have noted that there is some vanilla and corriander, but I missed it. Its decent for getting non-beer people into the world of craft brewing, but probably isn’t anything too many people here would go nuts for.

Bottle. Hazy pale yellow colour and yeasty wheat aroma with a touch of lemon fruit. Taste pretty much the same as aroma. One of the best summer beers I’ve had on a hot day but at other times refreshing and enjoyable too. Try with a lemon slice too.

bottle - Pours hazy, pale yellow, medium white, frothy head. Aroma is of spiced orange and coriander and I swear I detected the faintest hint of vanilla. The taste was of coriander and citrus with a nicely balanced finish. Very refreshing.

Pale yellow, cloudy, white head. not terribly impressed by this one. some citrus but the corriander wasn’t detectable to me.

Pleasantly surprised by this beer. Had a citrus taste, and poured a cloudy, golden color.

A nice light citrus and grassy aroma. Pours out with a light golden body and a light white head. A lighter bodied beer with a complex and slightly sour flavor and a light lasting finish.

Bottle. Aroma like rotting citrus. This an is excellent description provided by a non-beer drinker. Having owned several citrus trees myself, this description is dead on. It is not an unpleasant aroma, but distinctive. Appearance similar grapefruit juice. Foamy head that dissipates within two minutes. Taste is typical but watery. Feel is creamy and a little oily. Aftertaste is a flat and unpleasant. I really wanted to like this beer because it is readily available in this area. With each bottle over several sittings I liked it less.
