A fantastic refreshing wheat beer. A cloudy orange beer with a ton of flavor. Usually served with an orange, but it’s not necessary.

Bottle. Pours hazy yellow/orange with a white head. Tastes and smells like some odd combination of black licorice, peppermint, lemon, and wheat. Interesting.

This is an enigma of a beer. The head start off huge and fluffy and then is gone like that. It smells like a thin orange juice strongly but then that gets really nauseating. It tastes sort of refreshing at first and then it tastes like a cough drop. All in all not a fan.

Pours a pale orange color with thin foamy head. Very fruity aroma. Strong flavor of citrus and slight hints of wheat. Tastes very much like a Blue Moon with a bit more spice to it. A slice of orange is good with it and brings out the natural citrus flavor.

bottle: What a brutal beer. This feels like a very cheap cooler. The sickly artificial organge taste brings Orange Crush to mind. Blue Moon is a far superior execution of these flavours. There is something very artificial tasting in this.

Coriander and orange citrus nose. Smells like fruit loops cereal. Slightly cloudy pale straw wit small white fine head. Nice spicey flavors of rosemary coriander and orange zest with rather sweet wheaty malt background. Light body with fizzy slightly sour mouthfeel.
