Oakes (7032), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Apr 9, 2006 Hazy beige colour. Orangey, fruity aroma. Beautiful blend of superbly refreshing mandarin orange, wheaty acidity and fresh pale malts. Crazy, cool stuff...one of the best fruit beers I’ve had in a while. BJP2006 (20), Washington, USA Jun 13, 2006 Light straw/honey color. medium wheat orange aroma somewhat estery, good clean flavor with just a hint of citrus, medium to light body and motuh feel. overall a very pleasant drinking brew reminds me somewhat of Bert Grants Manderin hefe. douglas88 (944), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA Aug 18, 2008 Bottle bought at Yellowstone NP. It’s really cool how Yellowstone carries a decent selection of local craft beers. Pours a clear gold with almost no head. Some tiny white bubbles float around. The aroma is very nice; tons of ripe oranges and some wheat. The flavor was similar; a bunch of mandarin oranges balanced by a good wheat aspect. The finish is all wheat. Very nice and natural flavor. Enjoyable. 5000 (2401), Hardened Liver, Washington, USA Jun 11, 2006 <b>Bottle</b>: Dull straw, quite hazy and thick, slight orange hue, moderate to small fizzy white head, dies quickly, with spotty lacing. Light mandarin on the nose, a bit wheaty, some orange peel as well. Tangy mandarin/satsuma flavor, lightly dry, not chalky like other examples. Clean, fairly wheaty. A little tang on the exit. Moderate body and mouthfeel. Finish, unlike the start, seems a bit unsweetened. Not half bad! <br /><br /> DuffMan (2139), Calgary, Alberta, Canada Jul 3, 2008 A surprisingly cloudy yellow beer. Mandarin citrus oil aroma, like pinching the peel. Same authentic mandarin citrus flavour without being really sweet-- interesting. Finish is dry and acidic. Very refreshing. Truly a nice surprise!
