Draft at the brewery with Linh. Pours a light golden orange body with light white lacing. Aroma is sweet honey and wheat. Mouthfeel is refreshing and sessionable. The honey is used incredibly well here, maybe the best honey wheat ale.

Hazy apricot color, white head. Here is a style that is often just screwed up beyond belief. But Hess has managed to corral so much rich, fresh honey into this aroma and flavor with out any cloying or annoying sweetness. Just a superb brew.
