Bottle served in a footed pilsner glass. Pours pale yellow-orange with a medium-short white head. Minimal retention and little to no lacing. Bright aroma of... surprise... tangerine! Light body, sweet flavor, and a smooth finish that is full of citrus. Very enjoyable fruit beer.

This was the first Ice Harbor beer i had, and it was a great start. Besides being a great hefeweizen this beer integrated tangerine adding a perfect citrus balance removing the need for a lemon slice. Start off your Ice Harbor experience with the tangerine exBEERience Hefe!

Juicy dark tangerine aroma, seriously fresh squeezed. Burnt orange, thin nearly absent head. Very juicy up front, every bit like biting in a tangerine. Dries out a bit quickly which works in its favor to balance the sweet fruit. Simple and direct and refreshing.

Tangerine “Hefe” smells like citrus and coriander. They probably sell a lot in the summer, but to heavy on the tangerine flavor for me. Golden pour, good clarity, thin white head. Body could have been a bit more dry and crisp, rather syrupy.

On tap at the brewery. Wow...twice in a row they’ve done something hard to do...I’m actually saying I like a fruit beer! What! Well this guys pours a beautiful cloudy golden yellow...not much head though. Aroma is seriously tangerined out mixed in with heavy yeast notes. The flavor starts all soft in a light banana realm and then quickly moves into a flush of heavy clove spice that moves even more quickly into a rush of sharp tangerine notes, blending beautifully with the clove. Fairly spicey and somewhat bitter finish...I really dug this.

From a 12-oz. bottle--Poured a nice clean copper-orange body with a small white top. Floral, fruity, orange nose. Mild, slightly bitter and creamy. Nice session beer.

IrishBoy (3618) - Bakersfield, California, USA - JAN 14, 2008
12 oz bottle from Brewdad; nose of tangerines and light wheat; looks like watery orange juice with a small white head; flavor of tangerines, a little hefe wheat, but not banana esters or spiciness; finish is some light hop bitterness.

BrewDad (4256) - Olympia, USA - JAN 10, 2008
12oz Bottle – Brewery – Kennewick, WA
Aroma – A light wheat aroma with a slight fruit presence. I mean slight.
Appearance – Golden yellow color, hazy with a thin head.
Flavor – A mild wheat flavor with a very light fruit flavor in the end. This was a hugely missing the flavor it advertised.
Palate – Weak dry and light Mouthfeel.
Overall – This was A horrible brewed beer. The flavor was scorched and the fruitiness was totally missing. I will be going back and I will check this beer out again at the brewery.

Not nearly as bad as what I expected. The tangerine is Very Very VERY much key to this drink. The banana is evident as is the yeastiness, but the tangerine really is overpowering - which may be a good or bad thing depending on how you look at it. Very sweet, almost High-Fructose-Corn-Syrup Sweet. Nice as a novelty drink, not really wheaty, except with a nice wheat maltm mellow bubblegum-wheat finish - Closer to a Sunkist Soda than a Hefe. I do recomend it though.
