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

This one pours a hazy, opaque orange-gold with a thin white head. Aroma is wheaty and slightly malty with a hint of orange. Flavor is wheaty with a strong orange overtone that is slightly but pleasantly sour. Smooth, fizzy texture leaves nice wheaty and citrus finish.

Pours from the 12 oz. bottle a golden color with a large fluffy white head which settles some but is retained as a half finger head. Very active carbonation, this is on the verge of "fizzy" Aroma is of citrus & spice. 1st sip is sweet, the honey jumps out right away with the citrus (orange) riding its coattails. The after taste is of slightly bitter orange peel with a hint of peppery spice. Mouthfeel is smooth, crisp, & refreshing, and I could easily see sessioning quite a few of these on a hot summer day. This is a nice, refreshing summer ale, one that would make a great complement to food fresh off the grill at a backyard cookout. Nice stuff!!!

An easy drinking Summer Ale, with a hint on Honey and Orange. Weaker than I expected. Wouldn’t recommend it to friends.

Bottle. Poured lager yellow with thin white head. Slight aroma of citrus. Flavour is mostly honey with a slight orange tinge. Sweet honey finish. Unremarkable.

I had this beer with jayson2425 after a night of working out in the garage. Not too bad of a brew. Nice and refreshing. Crisp with a slight honey taste. I like the Blue Moon winter brew better.

Bottled - This beer has a good concept but I think it needs a little more planning. Very sweet honey after taste after it goes down. When paired with an orange it is actually quite decent. Re-rate- After more careful consumption I have come to the conclusion that I actually really like this beer. Nice smooth taste!
