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.

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

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.

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.

Poured golden orange from a bottle in to a pint glass. Very little head will minimal lacing. Smells of orange, wheat, and flowery. Tastes sweet of wheat and orange with light refreshing hops. There is also some lemon. Finally finishes with a nice subtle bitterness. Light mouth feel with good carbonation. Very refreshing on a hot summer day. Shall I have another? Yes please.

Draft. I can’t agree more with the previous rater- Oberon really is a perfect summer session beer. Slightly cloudy yellow pour with medium white head. Citrus, other fruits, mild spice, and wheat on the nose. Flavor is also primarily citrus and hops with malt, wheat, and a little spice. Feels great on the palate, with a medium body, gentle carbonation, and a surprisingly creamy feel for all the citrus in there. A can’t-go-wrong summer classic.
