Bottle, pours a light cloudy color similar to a wit, with a light fluffy head. Reminds me of a wit without the spice and aroma. Its also a bit watery, this is not a bad wheat and its easy to drink but nothing remarkable.

Bottle courtesy of adrian910ss. Pours a cloudy light orange with a ring of white head. Aroma of citrus, light fruits, wheat, orange, melon rind. Flavor of wheat, light fruits. Doesn’t taste as good as it smells, but it’s pretty good nonetheless. Good wheat beer, although a little boring.

Bottle. Aroma a very nice blend of orange and wheat. Flavor of sweet oranges, sweet wheat, very juicy. Shortly a very baked toasty character emerges from the wheat malt which doesn’t really compliment the gentler, sprightlier orange-wheat combination. Occasional sharp prickles of carbonation. Tasty.

Bottle. Same color and opacity as a melted orange popsicle with a creamy white head. Sweet citrus aroma with sugary fruit up front in the taste and a followup of spicy malt. A nice bitter hops finish and decent carbonation. A great summer beer that goes down very easy.

Pint draft pour from Charlies Pub in Munster, Indiana, this poured a hazy gold. Medium white head and average lacing. Nose of malts, wheat, ad some grassy hops. Smooth mouthfeel. Easy drinking.

I have this American wheat ale on tap at home and it has become a summer favorite with my friends. A hazy yellow beer with hints of citrus, and spice. A bitter after taste from the hops, with a creamy head. Some add a slice of orange, as for me, naked taste better.

Not a bad beer, but doesn’t live up to the hype. Perfectly drinkable, but just not really what I expected. Nice hop profile here, but just too much spice. There are some nice malt notes in the background, but they never really come forward, and the drinker is just left with a grassy beer. I’d just as soon have a Gumballhead or similar.

Poured from MiniKeg at BCTC thanks to TomDecapolis. Poured cloudy gold in color with a medium sized white head. Aroma of wheat, orange peel, bread, lemongrass. Tastes of wheat, light citrus, lemongrass, and mildly spiced. This is a great session beer for a hot day. Nice.

Hazy, glowing orange with a small white head. Orange, citrus, fresh hops, light wheat, and yeast in the aroma. Full bodied with noticeable carbonation. Orange, light citrus hops, yeast, and spice in the flavor. A very enjoyable, and thoroughly refreshing summer brew.
