Pours a cloudy orange color. Smell is heavy on the citrus especially orange with a touch of malt and wheat. Taste is full of malt and orange peel. Mouthfeel was good with heavy carbonation and an overall light feeling. This is a very drinkable beer.

One of the better commercial beers out there. Orange colored Wit Bier, with a strong body, although I hate how bartenders automatically throw an orange in the beer now!

On tap at TGIFriday’s in Torrance, CA. Cloudy golden orange beer with a small white head. Malty citrus aroma. Flavor is malt sweetness with a bit of yeast. The beer has a bite which is different, but pleasant. Finish is very slight bitterness with some sweet. Very good summer beer.

on Tap at Dubliner Pub in Omaha, NE. Cloudy yellow color, poor foamy, probably because the weitress and she put some orange on the glass. Te aroma is citrus, with some notes of lemmon and orange, flavor is quite bitter. Mouthfeel is citrus.

White ale, whatever that means, it sounds like watered down pale ale which is not a good thing. The flavor is light with light malts and tastes like defrosted lager of the bad vriety. The only thing this white ale has going for it is the dreamy label on the bottle but as a beer it falls short and I can’t imagine adding orange to it. At the end, you really can’t expect a decent brew from Coors who make sparkling yellow water and call it beer. They are no different when it comes to their ales.

Not bad considering its lineage. Just different enough from the regular suspects to stand out.
