This beer has been hyped up to be so good and such a summer brew and I just didnt see it or atleast taste it. People told me this beer is great with tacos, great with italian food, mix in margerhitas and vise versa so on and so on yada yada etc. Mumbo jumbo! May I say not a bad brew and good with all those things and foods but so is any other beer.

A hazy yellowish orange pour with a small white head that dissipates quickly. Has a slightly fruity wheat aroma. The taste is smooth and sweet with some citrus hop mixed in and a very short finish.

A good beer as far as wheats go. Good flavor a little thin this year (2009). Older batches where better.

12 oz bottle from Casanova. Orange pour with a foamy white head. Spicy wheat aroma, citrus notes as well. Sweet tangy flavor, with some of the spice coming through. Nice smooth finish.

Had at the Ecentric cafe as well as many bottles hazy amber orange color big fluffy foam. nose is citrus and some yeasty barnyard zest, flavor is citrus and wheat not usually a wheat ale fan but this is really refreshing

Bottle. Pours a golden clean body with a frothy/buttery white head. Nose is full of dry outdoorsy smells, hay, wet tree branches, slightly dusty and sweet. The flavors are mild and have some notes of orange peel, corriander, simple syrup, and dry grass. The mouthfeel was absolutely amazing for this style. Nothing poked or prodded and the beer was perfectly balanced and pleasant, even though I’m not a fan of the style.

Another underwhelming offering from Bells. Boring and unremarkable with a bit of a peroxide finish. I realize wheat beers are unfiltered, and therefore hazy with sediment, but this left a strange gellatin-like mass of floaties in my glass - never seen anything quite like it. Not bad really, but I don’t see any reasong to drink this again.

light, almost airy. has a nice corn taste to it. nice yellow coloring. refreshing.
