An American bastardization of a wonderful Belgian style. Why must the U.S. commercialize and f**k up everything good? Maybe after reading the Declaration of Independence in the New York Times and thinking about the current "President" I’m a bit riled up. None the less, this is a great looking beer that I expect to taste amazing, but winds up tasting like Coors+ If I wanted Coors with orange I’d get a can of Coors for half the price and squeeze an orange slice into it and thicken it up with some corn syrup. Get it together people. THIS IS NOT A GOOD BEER!

Poured cloudy with no head. Aroma is sweet. Taste crisp and citrus. Bland and boring overall.

A nice witbier. Overall nicely balanced with a nice orange flavor that is emphasized with a citrus hop finish. I can’t drink a lot of seasonal or highly flavored beers, but this is a nice change of pace.

Bottle poured to glass. A moderatly well hopped brew that smelt of citrus and a slight yeasty sourdough smell. Hazy orangish,yellow brew with a creamy white head of 1 fingers width that disipates quickly. A wonderfully sweet initial flavor with a light acidic,bitter after taste of citrus fruits. A very well balance beer. I declinded the orange garnish b/c It is not beer. $ 3.25 @ The stones throw

Served with a slice of orange? nice touch i guess, but i’m not a fan of booze with "vegetables"... Offish citric yeast smell. Orangey hazy look with a thin white head. Very watery and tasteless. very drinkable, since theres nothing there to dislike, and then theres always the dodgy bit of orange....

can’t believe I haven’t rated this yet. Not a bad beer for a macro brewery and a decent introduction to the world of beers.

I really found this to an unpleasant beer. When I tried it on tap I had to have orange in it and it was still very unpleasant to me. In a bottle I found it even more unpleasant.

Pours cloudy amber with a thick foamy white head. Lots of visible effervescence. Aroma is semi-sweet maltiness with citrus notes. Flavor is mostly malty, only lightly bitter. Some spice and citrus in there as well. Bubbly, a bit too thin. A refreshing warm-weather brew - nothing terribly special, but very drinkable.
