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.

A heavier wheat beer than I’m accustomed. The citrus-coriander flavor is interesting but there’s something on the finish that I find off-putting. Drinkable, but nothing special.

Hazy, dark coppery orange with a creamy white head that lingers. The aroma is wheaty and strongly orange with some malt. The flavor is very wheat and orange centered, with a lot of the coriander coming through along with mild hops bitterness. Mostly decent, though nothing extraordinary.

Drake (4803) - Charlottesville, Virginia, USA - FEB 15, 2011
12 ounce bottle from State Line Liquors. Pours a hazy dark amber color with a medium sized fizzy white head. Aroma... well... banana notes are hitting me from the glass sitting two feet away. Upon closer inspection I get a lot of citrus, some tropical notes, green banana, chap-stick and some faint malty notes. The taste is cherries, citrus, green banana and a faint wheat note. Medium bodied.

DarkBeerChick (154) - San Antonio, Texas, USA - DEC 30, 2010
Bottle courtesy of llcooldave. Yellowish-orange with a sweet citrus aroma. A little thin.Slightly bitter and not much flavor in my opinion. But, refreshing and easy to drink. Great for a hot summer day.
