Commercial Description:
"Belgian White Ale" (North America) / "North American Craft Beer" (UK)
Brewed with oats for creaminess and spiced with the perfect combination of orange peel and coriander.
An unfiltered wheat ale spiced in the Belgian tradition for an uncommonly smooth taste.

On tap at the FIreside in Ambler, PA (And 100 other places in the area). This has become a popular beer, I imagine because of the "make an utterly non-offensive beer and everyone with love it" tradition of the big breweries. To me, this barely qualifies as a beer; it’s so over-the-top fruity, sweet, and completely imbalanced; I challenge you to comment on the hop character - there isn’t any. Pours a soft yellow, like a weak pilsener. Aroma is ridiculously citrusy, like someone dunked an orange in there before serving. Extremely sweet, fruity taste. Hard to imagine it’s 5.4%.

One of Coors’ best beers (doesn’t say much). Poured a soapy yellow, white body with a frothy white head. Nose of mild spices and tang. Not too bad. Not too great.

This beer is a sweet and smooth Belgian ale with a great aroma. Many people say that this beer is often served with an orange slice, but personally I believe that this beer is amazing just the way it is. The only drawback is the price.

popular beer where i live. Bottle and draft are both good. Usually served with orange. Adds a nice tang to it.

I love this stuff. Throw in a orange slice and you are in for a treat. It is much sweeter than your typical beer, but if thats what you want then you get it here.

From bottle and tap, pours dark orange and usually served with orange slice. Has very sweet aroma and sweet taste with a presence of wheat. Overall pretty good.

From a bottle . Pours hazy and orange with small white head. Smell is citrusy and sweet. Taste is more citrus and some wheat. Decent brew.

I think its a pretty good beer, I just have this thing about beers that need fruit to make it right. Blue moon is only good with an orange in it, thats what kills it.
