Bottled, thanks marbles! Cloudy pale orange. Estery, orangey nose. Sweet and soft with notes of peach and fraspberry, Mild and true to style, but with it’s own twist. Good stuff.

Very cloudy yellow. Slightly wheaty aroma. Flavour is wheaty, a little bit tart, with moderate sweetness and light yeastiness. Not particularly distinctive, but not a bad beer.

Hazy golden body with big off-white foam. Aroma is medium sweet, clove and wheat. Taste is medium banana sweet up front, turning wheat and clove mid-body, before finishing clove/light lemon tart. Light body, fairly crisp, with moderately high carbonation. Delicious Hefe.

(Bottle, Arena’s Deli & Beach Bar, Rehoboth Beach, DE) Pours a lightly cloudy golden body with a small white head. Aroma of orange (tart). Flavor is almost gueze like, rather than a hefeweizen; quite tart, but not spoiled tasting.

Weakish nose offers a doughy yeastiness dominance with limited soapy banana esters and almost absent hops/malt flavours. It pours light gold, murky and wearing a frothy yet diminishing white head. In mouth, vanilla finds its way through the doughyness, but yogurty, lactic and astringent tartness acts as the supreme authority and plunders its merits. Weak, light bodied thin and grainy demonstration.

Harrisburg Beer Festival 2... Draft... Murky, sunshine yellow ale with a tiny, creamy, white head. Apple, mandarin orange, tobacco, clove and apricot in the nose. Well-balanced, citrusy flavor with traces of spice and lemon peel. Light-bodied and fizzy. Short, crisp, clean finish. Not a fan of this Summer style... and this festival was (appropriately) full of them.
