Hazy orange pour with thick white head. Lemoon aroma with a spice wheat appeal. Taste matched the aroma, the body was decent. Overall Not a bad Wheat beer.

Had this on tap (declined the orange slice of course) when there was nothing else available. Hazy light golden-amber with a white head. Aroma is Fruity Pebbles, wheat, and orange. Flavor is mostly sweet Fruity Pebbles. Some wheat and orange. Palate pretty light and refreshing. This is nice when you’re looking for something that tastes like Fruity Pebbles, but otherwise it’s in the average range. Wouldn’t turn it down though if offered.

A favorite of mine; good for those who love the combination of citrus and wheat. Still my favorite normal/everyday drinking kind of beer.

Pours a clear, light amber, head diminishes quickly. Nose of wheat, some fruit, not much else. Taste is, well to sum it up, exactly like Fruity Pebbles. I swear, that’s exactly what this tastes like.

I appreciate sweetness in a beer to a point but this is ridiculous. Hell yes you can taste the wheat. Wheat is about the only thing that you could taste. With that said this beer was actually quite refreshing. Not something I would want (or could) drink a lot of. This is common during the summer at a bar that I go to and every now and then I will give it a try. Tell them to keep the orange. Kind nice in the summer time.

plastic cup: Incubus concert: Pours a nice amber, clear, however from a strong tap leaving a large head. Hard to read the nose but the wheats come to the front. Medium body, not to much complexity... an easy drink but clearly a mcaro.
