Draft at Taco Mac, TN. Pours hazy yellow color with an average fizzy white head that was lasting with fair lacing. Moderate citrus aroma. Light to medium body. Medium sweet flavor with a medium citrus sweet finish of an average duration. My expectations where met.

Bottle. Thsi brew pours a hazy orange/yellow and the aroma is enjoyable. The flavor is citrus with a well balanced spice added to it. Overall I really enjoyed this beer. Will have again.

Pours a cloudy light citrus yellow with a puffy white head. Very inviting looking. Smells like a nice Belgian wit. Light citrus, wheat, and grain. Taste is somehwat tannic, more than alot of other white beers Ive had. Still get some citrus fruit and slight tangerine taste. Vry smooth and easy drinking. Pretty good for an American version of a witbier.

Pours a cloudy, darkish yellow. Aroma of yeast, coriander, a little bubblegum. Easy drinking like most of the style; yeast, coriander, bubblegum, banana, orange. Good mouthfeel...didn’t find it too sweet. Pretty good for style.

Thanks to quagmite for the bottle. Hazy yellow with a large head. Spare lacing. Aroma of Belgian yeast, wheat, coriander, orange peel and sweet malt. Tastes a little sour, with bananas and oranges. Light body. Better than average.

Large white head on this clear, pale white ale. Typical white beer aroma. Typical whet beer flavor and body. Nothing great, nothing bad.

Originally had this at the brewery when it was called Summer Hummer -- perfect way to spend a Friday afternoon in the hot Atlanta summer. Foamy yellow, almost wish it were more like the color of the label. As far as white ales go, pretty dark though. Strong, sweet wheat aroma, some orange. Spicy up front, tingly acidic later and finishes sweet (maybe a little too sweet). Very enjoyable.
