Unfiltered yellow with large quickly diminishing head. Aroma of lemon, yeast and a little corn. Taste is very lemony, a little over carbonated with a tart lemony finish. A little dry, buy an ok beer.

I think this is a very drinkable beer. Not exactly full-flavored, but a very enjoyable refreshing beer. Perfect for a hot summer day.

12oz bottle: Sweet citrus aroma. Cloudy, dull orange color...wheat particles galore. Softlty carbonated on the palate. Coriander is very evident in the initial taste, finishes a little grassy. Not bad. Stay away if you don’t like your wheat beer with a distinct fruit taste.

This is not a purist’s beer, but If you want to experience some variations and experimental beer, I am sure you will love this. I could really see myself drinking this on a cool summer evening. It’s a bit wholesome, but just enough to make you feel like you are drinking something important.

Pours a yellow/orange color. Smells like orange liquorice and tastes like someone added orange liquorice syrup after the beer was finished. Their marketing people must be really good. Next time I would just prefer orange juice.

They claim it tastes like a sunset in a bottle. In my opinion, it tastes like orange alka-seltzer.
