Slightly hazy yellow-orange with a ginormous frothy, uneven white head that is slowly diminishing. Sour orange aroma, sugary sweet honey, wet wheat. Honey flavor is most prevalent in the flavor, sticky & sugary-sweet. Slight grassy/wheat husk flavor, pops the most in the immediate aftertaste. Moderately water mouthfeel. About as inoffensive as they come, but also fairly boring.

Pours clear and light yellow with a white head. Aroma is of leather, doug, and hints of grape and apple. Flavor is balanced twards sweet side. Honey, citrus and spicy. and mildly refreshing. Light to medium bodied, watery and livley carbonated.

Bottle. Not much of aroma at all. Pours light and crisp with thick head. Very light, I can see why it’s called summer ale. Taste of mild orange peel, smooth going down. Decent, not as fulfilling as their Belgian White.

Bottle. Pours light gold with a big white head. Mild honey aroma with a hint of musty wheat. Crisp and sweet. Light honey flavor and just a tiny, tiny hint of orange. Okay beer. B

This is basically your standard slightly sweet wheat beer. It’s filtered so its pours clear, not hazy. Has mild wheat beer aromas/flavors. Orange peel is not detectable. I do pick up on the honey a bit though. OK.

Bottle: Clear golden pour with a medium white head. Aroma, pale and grainy malts, bready, honey. Flavor, honey, light sweetness, and some citrus notes, a bit bready. The aroma put me off a bit at first, not bad overall though.
