I really like these hoppy wheat beers and this is no exception. Light and acidic malt with spicy and citrus hops. A bit lighter and less complex than Gumballhead or Hop Sun, but quite refreshing and enjoyable.

On tap at Capitol Ale House (Virginia) - a rich, hoppy wheat with bready notes - complex and very nice. Also tried a bottle, thanks to Adrian. The aroma was not the best, but it was well-hopped and a little sweet. Robust and flavorful for the style.

Bottle. Cloudy peach colored pour with a white head. Aroma is of wheat, some spice and is rather grassy. Good wheat flavor highlighted by a citrusy tea taste... maybe unsweetened Lipton with lemon best describes it.... and some mild bitterness. Its good, but ive become acustomed to more spice in wheat ales which would have been nice here.

Bottle. Orange blonde, cloudy. tangerine flavor with yeast, clove and some hints of yoghurt. No specific aroma, but flowery hops in the finish.

Spicy and bitter in the foretaste...almost as if the taste of yeast were fighting through the malty body of the beer. Notes of citrus and hops in the finish.

Nice wheat, Pours a clear to slightly cloudy orange color with almost no head. Aroma is very citrusy with a little bit of clove mixed in. Flavor is citrus and cloves. A little spicy. No bubblegum yeast flavors. Not much banana either. Good wheat, and a great summer beer.

Bottle thanks to Sprinkle from Crown Liqours. I have been wanting to try more wheats and "Summer" beers lately and this was a nice beer to try. Extremely refreshing. It had a nice wheat and citrus flavor, not overpowering but subtle. Not too carbinated either. I think I will like to have more of this for sure
