Draft at Old Boise Brewfest: Dark gold with a little haze and a large white head. Nose is abundant with fruity and citrus tones, just a little wheat tone in the background. Tastes sweet with orange, like orange extract was added. Loses a point or two there. Light body and small wheat character. Overall this is pretty good.

Bottle. The aroma hits you hard as soon as you open the bottle. Very fruity... almost artificial tasting. Orangish-hazy color. Doesn’t taste much like beer... more like a fermented juice. Might be nice outside on a hot summer day, but there are better options for that.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of Degarth. Hazy, golden with an off-white head. Very spicy accents in the nose - slightly gingery. Thin and somewhat watery body, sweetish, spicy and almost soapy. Dy finish. But a decent summer quencher. 200507

12 oz bottle...cloudy golden color, a typical wheat by just the appearance alone, nice fluffy white head...then...smells like lemon fruit loops....tastes thin and artificial...the finish is how I believe mold would taste, or rotting lemon rind, the worst wheat beer I’ve ever tasted!!...only thing this beer has going is the fun aroma

Bottled. An unclear orange beer with a thin lazing white head. The aroma is very spicy with notes of cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg as well as strong notes of wheat. The flavor is sweet and very wheaty and very spicy again cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg are present, leading to a dry spicy and wheaty end. The body is thin.

Strawberry and cherry aroma. Thick head and cloudy golden pour. Powerfully strong and distinct taste of blueberries, with no other discernible flavors. Weak finish of blueberries. Very unique and enjoyable, but suspect one dimensional flavor for a beer. Uprated for unique character and the fact that I love blueberries. Beer purists will probably not like it.

Bottle. Aroma is citrus. Pours a golden color with a average size white head. Very drinkable, but overall a typical macro-produced beer that’s trying it’s hardest to be a micro brew. It works for the most part and would probably convince less die hard beer people to it’s drinkability.
