2009 Bottle. Aroma of light wheatiness, mostly acidic fruitiness, like oranges. Pours light hazy yellow with a surprising head. Tastes similar to Blue Moon...hazy, yeasty, unfiltered, yet it has the crispness of a summer ale. Not the best mix of flavors in my opinion and a bit watery, but refreshing nonetheless.

Bottle: Pours slightly hazy, straw yellow color with a thin sparkling white head that disappears pretty quickly. Lots of honey in the flavor with some sweet citrus. Well carbonated. A little too sweet for my taste but its an ok change of pace on a hot day.

(bottle). Pours a clear golden color. Small white head. Light orange aroma. Sweet wheat flavor with light orange. Short duration. Spare lacing. Thin texture. Moderate carbonation.

Somewhat bitter in taste. Not a beer I’d pick out again. Has an aroma that is somewhat wheaty. Very fizzy in texture.
