It’s a real fruity beer. Get it real cold and this is a good beer to have with breakfast. It tastes like Fruity Pebbles and that’s what I’d drink it with. It doesn’t need to be so fruity, but I still like it.

Hazy grapefruit juice colored pour on draft with no head. Smell is like a cross of fruity pebbles, orange slice candy, and sweet tarts, yet somehow I like it. Taste is a mild, blandish fruity, candy like, with a big orange flavor and a light wheaty taste in the finish. Definitely unique, and somehow I like it, against my better judgement.

Bottle: Pours a golden yellow/orange with slight off white head. Aroma is pleasing, oranges and wheat. Sweet taste, wheaty and orangey, a little watered down. I’ve had it on tap as well and must say it is much better than bottled. An orange or a lemon compliments the flavor well, but it’s not a complete necessity. Nice warm weather brew. It really does smell and taste a bit like "Fruity Pebbles" cereal, I like it and think it’s a decent beer for $5 a sixer.

Complex and fruity... smooth and drinkable. Could session this with ease. Can get a little old after a couple though.

Pours perfect golden color with almost no head. Decent lacing. Strong aroma of blueberry and wheat malt and hops. Tastes almost like blueberry flavored beer. It’s pretty good since I like blueberries. Flavor is abit sugary and sweet too and finishes a little bland.

Poured a hazy orange color with a slight head. Slight bready aroma. Tasted a little bready, a little yeasty, a little citrusy with a nice spicy zip at the end. Knocked down a couple at the end of a hot day, which really quenched my thirst, which is what this beer is for. Nice smooth, easy drinking beer.
