This was a really good wheat ale. Pours a cloudy amber with a nice white head. Citrus and wheat on the nose. Smooth malty body with a nice hops presence as well; nicely balanced. Goes great with an orange slice. Finishes crisp and clean. Definitely worth a try.

Although I am usually anti-fruit with beer, this one REQUIRES an orange. If you haven’t had it on a summer day with a fresh slice of orange, it simply doesn’t count. It is a mediocre beer without the orange.
But with it, it is fresh, beautiful, continuously drinkable with a nice citric bite to go along with the wheat smoothness.

3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle, from John’s Grocery in Iowa City, IA. Hazy orange, smallish layer of fine white head. Cold, sweet orange aroma, a bit of mint. Green grass flavor and bitter citrus oil. hint of tomato. Nice touch of hops in the finish. Much higher flavor volume than the usual American-style wheat beer. I dig.
