Pours orange with a big white head from bottle. Has a slightly fruity vibe on the nose. Lots of carbonation. The taste is smooth and crisp. Finishes clean. Nice summer beer.

poured very nice with a good long lasting head, and good lacing. smell was very weak and taste was wheatey, and slight fruitteness. not anywhere close to my favorite bells beer.

Poured a hazy light golden with a white, long lasting, but smallish head. Nice spice and a solid wheat beer.

Light golden color with a long present white head. Excellent lacing. Mildly fruity nose. Taste is bubblegum balanced with hops and a wheaty finish. Nice.

Ah, Oberon, my summer beer. Goes great with sunshine and whatever you’re doing outside. Don’t forget to stir up the last little bit in the bottle so you get all the sediment. That’s where the vitamins are! Golden-orange with a pillowy head that slowly descends and leaves some lacing. Flat out delicious and moderately sessionable. It’s great out of the mini-keg, and some have remarked that it seems stronger that way. Always a hit.

Tap. Aroma: light grains and wheat malt, spicy but subtle hops. Pours a slightly cloudy light orange, white head with average retention. Flavor is wheat and light malt, orange, some spiciness from the hops, light and refreshing. Light-medium body, medium carbonation.
