Pours hazy yellow with a generous white head. Light fruity sweetness in the aroma with some peach and apricot - creamy and smooth. Medium body with a little sharp carbonation that is only on the finish. Sharp citrus with a wheat smoothness compliement each other. There is some nectar fruits as well as some pineapple. Finish has sharpness from carbonation and some spiciness. The fruit tends to have some fakenss to it. An okay beer - nothing great.

Ckoudy maize and sporting a smallish white head, this beer added a slight apricot aroma to the traditional banana clove smell you might expect. Lightly tart up front, the tartness seems to fall quickly over the sides of the tongue, leaving a soft wheaty malt character behind. The clean satisfying finish does not linger very long. A solid summer quencher and perfect BBQ beer.

Pours a clearish goldenish yellow, becoming hazier with the addition of the yeastier bottom half of the bottle, with a relatively dense, though relatively fleeting white head. The nose is realy textbook wheat-- light sweetness with a that grainy wheat, slight banana,and even a touch of apple, as well as a bit more floral hops than one typically finds in the style. The mouthfeel is entirely appropriate with light carbonation, not much density, and still a decent, though slightly watery bit of creaminess. The flavors are remarkably clean. Light wheaty banana and sweetness is first apparent, followed by some more light hops. A creamy almost vanilla flavor comes in, so as the acidic finish comes over, and leaves, the only aftetaste is this rather pleasant sweet, though light flavor. I really enjoy how clean and thirst quenching this beer is, and could guzzle this more easily than most wheats.

A cloudy yellow color with a small white bubbly head. It smells like bananas, pears, wheat, lemon and overall very sweet. Tastes similar but less lemony, maybe some orange instead. Very clean and refreshing, nice blend of flavors.

Hazy orange body with a small frothy white head. Aroma of spice and some orange peel. Sweet spice flavor, some banana hints, and a touch of orange peel in the end.

Bottled. Pretty nice tasting wheat beer, alittle on the fruity/sweet side for me, but its nice and smooth. Orangy/golden in color with a small head. Clove and banana flavoring.
