A good white ale. Great with a lemon or an orange. Cloudy yellow. Nice citrusy smell and taste. I like this beer. It’s good.

Bottled@The Rake, London. Golden colour, lots of particles floating around, mediumsized white head. Aroma is spices, wheat, US hops and some mild notes of earh. Flavour is citrus fruits, herbal notes and quite a lot of grass and mild spices.

A respectable attempt at a wheat beer by the big guys, but in an underhanded way. It pours a slightly hazy gold color with an aroma of citrus, but upon tasting it reveals something different. The flavor gives a hint of citrus and spice, but also some corn and rice. If served with a piece off ruit, however, this taste is masked well. I will avoid it simply because it is a Coors beer, and Coors should take ownership of it and stamp their name on it.

Pours a very hazy orange with a white head. Has a nice citrus taste and goes down smooth. It is definitely a good beer.

Slight citrus aroma with a hazy orange pour with little bits of orange zest and white head. Has a spiced and citrus taste, which is surprisingly complex for a macro, and with a sweet finish. A pretty good attempt at a Belgian ale from Coors of all people, but still obviously leaves much to be desired.
