4.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
This is not a bold beer. This is not a daring beer. This is just a plain delicious, highly drinkable, "Thank jebus it’s summer!" beer. Little to no aroma; what’s present is a mild citrus scent. Thin white head fading to mild but clingy lacing. Cloudy, light amber in color. But the taste...smooth, crisp, with nice carbonation, a mild malt flavor, nice hoppy finish that doesn’t linger long enough to be unwelcome.
I don’t think everything Bell’s makes is awesome, but this beer is, without a doubt, one of the best beers around.

Very good wheat beer... all around. Fruit beer not my thing, but this works with an orange. Very clean finish, medium body-- not light like some wheats. Very consistent.
2.4 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Almost no aroma present aside from some faint citrus. Somewhat refreshing, but the alcohol is not hidden at all in this, which leads to a bitter aftertaste.

A- Translucent straw yellow body with thin white head that quickly fades leaving a nice collar. Plenty of lacing.
S- Nice light smell of citrus and wheat.
T- Citrus upfront, followed by wheat and some spiciness. Light wheat lingers. Nice light flavor.
P- light carbonation and light body. Smooth.
O- This is a great drinkable summer beer. I would have this again. Its light and refreshing on a hot summer day.
Serving type: on-tap

This years brew seemed lighter in color than last year. More wheat and less hops in the aroma than I remembered. Overall a solid beer, but seemed to have less character than last year.

Bottle from six-pack at Fresh Market, poured into a weizen glass. Pours a nice, cloudy, gold color with a healthy amount of foamy white head. Citrusy aroma with spicy clove notes. Light bodied, bubbly, and refreshing. Not bad.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours a cloudy gold/copper with a nice head, minimal lacing. Yeasty nose with some citrus. Citrus flavor dominates but doesn’t take over, still some bitterness. Finishes crisp but leaves the mouth feeling a bit oiled up. This is an excellent example of a summer beer.
