An American wheat ale made with European ingredients. Belgium wheat malt and Czech Saaz hops provide a spicy, fruity balance to this seasonal ale. (Formerly known as Solsun)

maugus4ever (123) - Winston-Salem, North Carolina, USA - AUG 21, 2009
Pours a slightly cloudy light gold with a decent white head. Somewhat floral wheat aroma with a bit of citrus. A nice sweet taste with a bit of spice. Light on hops, but has a nice balance. This is a great summer session and is worth a try.

Scouser (177) - Pennsylvania, USA - AUG 18, 2009
UPDATED: AUG 21, 2009 light golden color, very little aroma, balanced flavor not too malty, very mild hops. fizzy on the palate. easy to drink, refreshing beer. good one for a hot summer day, but if you are looking for a beer with a lot of character this is not it

guerinfbfan (90) - Elmwood Park, Illinois, USA - AUG 18, 2009
Pours a golden brown, with a large white foamy head. Smells of oranges. You get the taste of citrus, orange, and wheat. Goes down easy. Good brew.

Beerowulf (60) - , Indiana, USA - AUG 16, 2009
Excellent summer brew. Cloudy orange color, great lacing and frothy head. Spice is just right as is the hint of hops. Malt and citrus also present. My favorite Bell’s outside of the Two-Hearted Ale.

A pleasant wheat ale - slightly estery, round and full in the mouth, slightly sweet but not overpowering. I happen to prefer my summer beers lighter and my wheat beers spicier than this, but it’s nice enough.
