Bottle: Pours a cloudy honey must reminiscent of mead. thick shiny white head. Strong nose of tangerines and mixed citrus with hints of pine. Bosdy is full and smooth with sugared grapefruit ringing. Large thick lacing exudes from thicker quaff rings. finish is rounded and full with hints o hops and pine. A very nice brew. Worth a try.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy gold, light head. Aroma is fruity, very fresh, with hints of spice. Taste is a nicely layered combo of orange and corriander. First taste is sweet, next is spicy. Very pleasant to drink.

Bottled - Pour is a hazzzy orange.. Nose is lots of orange peel.. The most recognizable aroma is "Fruity Pebbles".. :) Probably the coriander.. Taste follows the aroma perfectly... VERY strong orange and fruity wheat flavors.. I have to say this is a very nice beer for a hot summer day by the pool.. I LIKE IT... and id buy it again..

The orange in this beer give it an aroma of marmalade. Cloudy pale orange color. Sweet taste but not over powering. Marmalade taste with a wheat finish. Palate not as chewy as I like in a wheat beer. Very impressed with this one.

A good beer not the best Leinenkugels has put out but it ranks in the top 3 of Leinies beers, great taste, no bad aftertaste, the aroma can use some work, but other wise this is a must try beer!

Bottle. Pours hazy pale gold with creamy soft white head. Smells wheaty, citrusy, and hints of coriander. Tastes citrusy sweet at first, followed by a smooth wheaty flavor with the clove, coriander and maybe a hint of nutmeg and of ginger. Pretty good, but not as good as others in its genre.

This is a pretty badass beer. A gift from JRedmond for my birthday. It is extremely flavorful (blueberry/orange). The taste seems a bit artifical though, maybe due to its robustness. I would get this again.
