Hazy golden color with an average head. Aroma is mild with malts and citrus. Very sweet tasting. Almost too sweet.

On tap at the brewpub. Hazy golden color, white head. Aroma is fairly unimpressive, malty with citrus. Taste is better, wheat and citrus. Slightly bitter finish. Very drinkable.

Wheat beer with citrus tang and spice. I though this beer was interesting and a different approach to the white ale. Wouldn’t drink many, but once in a while would be a nice beer for something out of the ordinary. Poured straight from the fridge and noticed that flavor got better as the liquid grew warmer.

12 oz bottle. Thanks crizay. Hazy yellow color with thin white head. Crisp pale malt aroma with a hint of citrus and faint banana. The flavor is somewhat similar to the aroma with tasty pale malts mixed with sweet citrus hop flavor. Also floating around about midway is honey and a bit of sweet grapefruit. Enjoyable brew.

It was okay..not something I can drink a lot of. Blue Moon has a more appealing flavor, and this after taste wasn’t that great and lingered

Good if you like wheat ales. However I’m not a big fan. Has a taste comparable to that of Blue Moon, however much more drinkable and has the bitter aftertaste you come to expect from Great Lakes-made beers.

Bottled. Aroma was yeasty and mildly spicy, but a little weak. The flavor is much richer than the aroma hints at. It is tangy, wheaty (duh), and has some sort of spicy bite that I cant place. The color was pale yellow, and slightly hazy. It had a medium-lasting off white head and decent lacing.

pours a dark lemon yellow color with a one finger white head. cloudy with sediment and the aroma is lemon and a little wheat and chamomile. flavor is lemon and a little wheat and chamomile little orange in there as well. light to medium body and nice lacing. there is a little hops aroma and taste about half way down too. very smooth and a little creamy mouthfeel. light to medium body with some lacing that follows the liquid. not to bad of a white ale.
