A remarkable wheat beer infused with a blend of Orange Pekeo and Earl Grey teas. It pours a light amber colour and will charm you with its sublime tea flavour and subtle lemon twist. A trully Canadian take on one of Europe’s newest beer styles.

Loads of sweet lemon and the tea is really evident. Some nice grassiness, and a great citrus sweetness. A perfect summer beer, a good beer to serve to newcomers .

Draft - Lemon and iced tea. Clear gold with a rich white head. Some peppery teal leaf notes and malts with some old lemon. Not good.

Brun farge med lavt hvitt skum. Lukter av citrus og litt mettalisk. Smaker av sitron og ikke så veldig høyt karbonert. Derfor noe tam. Noe biitter avslutning.

Lett tåkete brun med fingerhøyt hvitt skum. Lukter eple, sitron og trevirke. Lett. Mer sitron i smak enn i lukt. Lett sødme, mot honning og maltekstrakt. Lett, kortbitterhet avslutning.

Sampled form a 473ml can this beer poured a hazy copper color with a large foamy orange-white head that lingered and left decent lacing. The aroma was tea, orange, ginger and wheat. The flavor was bitter and tart with lemon and iced tea notes. Long iced tea finish. Light body. Meh.

Remarkable wheat beer isn’t exactly the way I’d term this beer but it’s better than I would have assumed. Pours hazy orange with ok head. Light tea and lighter lemon notes - this is probably a good thing. Oh mill street how I missed thee. Light touch of rust and tang in finish. Tap at airport brewpub.

15 ounce can into imperial pint glass, canned on 11/12/2014. Pours hazy deep orange/amber color with a 2 finger dense and rocky off white head with good retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Spotty foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a light amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of lemon, orange, black tea, wheat, biscuit, light honey, herbal, grass, and yeast/toasted earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance of lemon/tea spice, bready malt, and earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Taste of lemon, orange, black tea, wheat, biscuit, light honey, herbal, grass, and yeast/toasted earthiness. Minimal herbal/spice bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of lemon, orange, black tea, wheat, biscuit, light honey, herbal, grass, and yeast/toasted earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice robustness and balance of lemon/tea spice, bready malt, and earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/spice balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Medium carbonation and light-medium bodied; with a very smooth, crisp, and slightly creamy/bready mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is very well hidden with zero warming present after the finish as expected of 5%. Overall this is a very good spiced wheat ale. All around good robustness and balance of lemon/tea spice, bready malt, and earthy hop flavors; and very smooth and crisp to drink. A nicely enjoyable offering.

Surprised this 16 oz can is 5%. Thought it would be less. $3 @vintage estate. Nice head, darker hefe like pour. Not much aroma but I guess it does have a little lemon perfume thing going on. Much more impact than expected, was thinken this would be some low alky shandy thing, boy was I wrong. Lemon yes, but its more like something unsweetened, not like lemon aide @ all. Weird, like lemon with just a tad of tea and the big beery thing inthe background. On wing night, this is not as good as a yeengy B&T but SWTF? Yea, has enough alky to let you know its beer but its not possessive of any real ill ale attributes. Go figger, a wheat eh?

On tap at the Ottawa beerfest. An opaque light gold pour, the aroma is malty lemon with nice bready notes. A really nice lemon iced tea beer / tasty.
