Nice American wheat, not normally a style worth drinking, but Bell’s is such a great brewery, they make a fairly interesting example. Nice citrusy and spicy aroma, refreshing wheat character. American wheat beer with hints of wit. Drinkable for sure.

Angry fist of Santa tasting at Chris_o’s. I got the end of the bottle but it seemed to me to be a slightly hoppy golden beer.

Pours a great thick white head and has a moderately carbonated. Color is golden with big chunks of yeast, far from a smooth cloudiness. Aroma is wheat and orange. Flavor is mostly wheat with a soft orange to follow. Mouth feel on this beer is a light and the chunks of yeast add a gritty feeling in the mouth. Drinkable but have enjoyed other beers from Bells a lot more.

on tap at Frankfort Avenue Beer Depot. Didn;t taste like typical wheat beer to me. It tasted and smelled pretty much neutral and almost flavorful. It was very drinkable, no alcohol flavor, almost tart with a bit of sweet bitterness. Refreshing summer brew without much flavor.

Bottle. Pours a medium hazy golden color with a nice fluffy white head.Aroma of wheat, light clove and citrus. Tastes of wheat, oranges, light hops and spices. Has a semi sweet refreshing very satisfying finish. Excellent brew!
