High marks for orange smell and hazy appearance, but the taste and thin watery texture take a lot away. Orange and spice very prevalent. A good summer beer I suppose, but I won’t go out of my way for this.

Draft. Pours a hazy straw color with fair white head. Smells clean and tastes very fruity with some spice. Semi-bitter finish. Reminds me of Leni’s Sunset Wheat. Not a big fan of this one.

This is a very good beer for being what I would consider a macro. It beats the hell out of just about every domestic out there. The look of it is great, but then again, I’ve always enjoyed the copper unfiltered look with a thick head. Smell is forgetable. Taste very sweet of oranges and incredible smooth. Too weak on the beer taste- a little watery. However, it’s great for those who aren’t beer freaks, or you’re wanting to sip on something not very complex.

The mix between the water and the actual beer isn’t quite right. It just doesn’t taste very good. At first it won’t be so bad but the after taste really isn’t appetizing at all. Kind of a let down.

Light orange with a little haze and a white persistant head. Very smooth with a little citrus but also kind of light and watered down. Not bad but not great.

Cloudy murky orange color. Citrusy flavor with wheat. Some sweetness and a slight tang. A bit watered down making it rather thin bodied and less flavorful than it could be. Smooth with a slight citrus flavor lingering.

Opaque orange color. Mellow, citrusy aroma. Thin off-white head. Fruity and easy to drink. Mild carbonation and decent mouth feel for such a thin-bodied beer. Tangy, orangey, wheaty taste. Maybe some tangerine. If you’re looking for an alternative to boring lagers that isn’t too heavy, this would be a good beer to try. For the craft beer fan, this could have a little more taste and not be so watery. For the average beer drinker, it should be pleasantly surprising.

A watered down beer. Me no liky. I can tast a little hint of fruitiness, but real watery.
