This is a lovely summer brew. Not sure why I didn’t drink more of it last year. I wonder if others hold it in too high esteem, expecting more from Bell’s. It is, after all, just a wheat beer. But no need to cover this sucker up with orange or lemon, though I’m sure an orange would be nice if that’s your thing. Tastes lovely on its own. Bright orange-gold pour, generous head. Flavors and aromas of orange, yeast, a little zest and minimal spice. In a word, refreshing.

Oct 7, 2008 Bottle at chris_o’s pre beerexposed tasting. Alround rating: Fruity, tropical fruit, tangerine, theres a decent amount of wheat which is a bit thin and very much american wheat like, but still quite good. Take out the wheat and iv no doubt this would be awsome.

Blond color. Light aroma. Medium bodied, with some malt flavor and correct bitterness. Not exciting, but drinkable.

Oct 2, 2008 Bottle from MrChopin, thanks man! Poured a hazy orange-yellow color with a thick white head that stuck around nicely and left some spotty lacing. Spicy aroma of wheat with some soft orange peel, light lemon, and a bit of yeastiness. Crisp, lightly spicy entry leads into some fresh wheat and a bit of smooth orange and just a hint of floral hoppiness. Crisp on the palate with soft carbonation. Nice wheat.
