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.

12oz bottle 5/9/09 (Binny’s Plainfield)-Pours a goldenish amber with a small covering for a head. Aroma of citrus, caramel, wheat, and orange. Taste of orange, wheat, malt, caramel, honey, and slight hops. This light bodied brew is the first one from Arcadia that actually came across as somewhat fresh. Not bad and quite drinkable.

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.

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.

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.
