COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Arcadia Whitsun is a modern interpretation of a mid-19th century English spring and summer festival ale. It is light golden in color with a rich, creamy head, full bodied and has a lightly toasted caramel flavor. The addition of Michigan star thistle honey contributes a uniquely smooth drinkability to this unfiltered wheat ale.

12 oz bottle poured into a snifter. Murky caramel color with small off-white head. Aroma is predominantly apples, with some sweet malt, wheat, and light citrus. Taste of sweet and tart apples. Medium mouthfeel with light crisp carbonation. Quenching, not bad.

Dead grass color with a nice head, smelled of wheat and lemon. The flavor was tangy or citrus, some banana, lots of apple that was kind of off putting in that it was the dominate flavor. Malty body with a clean aftertaste.

Interesting wheaty taste. Not particular but there is good note here. Nice hazy look with thin head.

Bottle. Pours a golden color with a big white head. Some lacing on the side of the glass. Lots of carbonation. Aroma is wheat, earthy grains, and grass. Taste is lemon zest and other natural flavors. Decent beer.

Barrios (1243) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - JAN 11, 2009
Bottle with Butters at the First Cellar Reduction. I got the bottom of the bottle so it poured an off-white head and a cloudy, honey colored body. Smells of honey and some wheat. Tastes of honey and citrus with a good body.

KawaBomber (215) - New Jersey, USA - JAN 7, 2009
12oz. Bottle: Pour is clear gold with a barely there off-white head. Spicy wheat and citrus in the aroma. Flavor is very malty for a wheat beer. Alot of sweet malts up front followed by spicy, yet tangy wheat and citrus notes towards the finish. I did pick up a hint of honey in the finish. Leaves a syrupy sweetness behind. As the beer warmed a bit I picked up some citrusy hops in the flavor, nice little surprise. Certainly a different twist on the style, pretty good too.
