Rogue Somer Orange Honey Ale

Brewed by Rogue Ales
Style: Fruit Beer
Newport, Oregon USA

22 oz bottle courtesy of bvc. Pour is cloudy golden orange with a snow white one inch head. Active carbonation flying to the top. Aroma of the wheat, mostly, with some metallic sweetness behind that. Taste is the honey, orange (peel) and wheat, just as advertised. The yeastiness is certainly the Rogue yeast. Overall, tasty and refreshing, but not really that clean. Palate is medium, honey cloys a bit in the finish. Thanks for sending it my way Brandon.

Kind of a hazy orange, with a small white head. Sweet citrus aroma, the flavor is chamomile, some honey and bit of citrus. Honey comes out a bit more in the finish. Light mouthfeel, It’s alright. Just alright though.

On tap at Bailey’s Tap Room in Portland, OR--Poured a hazy orange-golden hue with a mild creamy white head. Wheaten, sweet, honeyed, citrus nose with flavorful yeasty esters. Drinkable, subtle, smooth, brew. Very nice.

Bottle. Pours alight yellow with slight, quickly disappearing head. Nose is undiscernable. That pretty much describes the beer. It is not unpleasent, just doesn’t take you anywhere. Slightly sweet, with no noticeable orange notes. It was completely drinkable, but there is no reason to seek this one out again.

Bottle from PC Market of Choice in Ashland, OR. Not much to add to the previous ratings. This was just kinda blah. It was beer.

For a wheat beer its pretty good, the orange flavor is not a total lie. But compared to the rest of beer kind, meh.

Bottle from PC Market of Choice in Ashland, CA. Poured a hazy orange color. Slighty sweet aroma. Thin-bodied beer that had a light honey/orange flavor. Not bad, but just too thin on the palate.

Bottle with yalnikim (in NZ), has a slight haze to the golden pour, with a creamy white head. Aroma is hoppy with honey, but also musty. Honey flavour, but with a thin mouthfeel, which gives it it a metallic palate.
