2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Comes across as watery in the body. Was hoping for some spice and/or citrus from the wheat, but no luck.

Delicious from start to finish. Pours a light cloudy orange with a short head that settles quickly. Light citrus and hops flavor. This is the taste of summer.

12oz bottle. This is a perfect beer for a summer day. It is a beer that I will always fall back on. The bright orange color, the crisp hop flavor, the averageness of it that just makes it a great beer. Highly recommended

Bottle, shared with multiple others at brew club. Pours a pale yellow (SRM 3) over a clear body......nose is minimal cereal, bit of hop (grass)....taste is light cereal, minimal bitter finish....mouth feel is light, carbonation medium. A very light beer in aroma, taste and mouth feel BJCP 4/3/8/4/5
3.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
Poured from bottle. I’ve been drinking Oberon for years, but this years batch seems pretty weak to me. This was the first beer that really got me into craft brews and I’ll always be grateful for that. However, for this year’s batch, the aroma is almost absent. If anything, soft aroma of wheat / straw. The appearance is also odd, it seems like there’s tiny yeast particles floating around. I might have gotten a bad batch or something, because I’ve never seen this in a beer before. Taste wise, it just reminds me of summer. It’s better than the average wheat ale, but it’s pretty light.

draft at Fireflies. slightly cloudy, golden yellow pour. very light, some bitter hops, somewhat citrusy. goes down smooth for a wheat ale..
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle - Golden pour with a ton of floaties and a small white head. The nose is hard to pick up. There’s some light, grainy wheat with some subdued hop spiciness, and just a little alcohol peeking out. That was surprising. The taste is, well, meh. Some light wheat, mineral flavors, light bittering hops, but not much else. More spicy than fruity, but fairly watery and not extremely easy-to-drink. I guess the flavor profile doesn’t do it for me, and since it’s surprisingly unsessionable for my palate, I don’t see the attraction.

Pretty dec beer. Nice, crisp and light palate. little bit of kick combined with citrus undertones. Not much on tthe aroma side. Nice beer.
