A refreshing wheat ale crafted with clover honey for a hint of sweetness and a touch of orange peel for subtle citrus notes.

12oz bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a mostly clear dark yellow with a very thin ring of white head. Aroma of wheat, light clove and some sour honey. Taste is medium sweet. Mostly honey with some clove on the aftertaste. Medium bodied with a thin yet sticky texture. Lively carbonation and a long finish. Overall, not bad. Too sweet for my taste.

Refrigerated bottle poured into a weizen glass. Pours clear golden with medium white head that dies down. Nice thin small bubble lacing, medium carbonation, slightly syrupy texture, and estery wheat aroma. Taste is estery wheat, some honey, and some orange. Not bad.

Tap @ THE Steakout Saloon. Clear, golden appearance with a white head. Dull honey, bland, sweet grainy aroma. Macro lager, sweet honey, nasty corn, pale malty flavor. Shitty. Fuck you.

12oz bottle picked up at a local store
Appearance: Pours crystal clear light golden with a mediums sized white head that dissipates to a small ring, some lacing. Lots of carbonation.
Aroma: Pale malts, bready and honey
Taste: Malts, wheat, honey and mid citrus bitterness
OK, it grows on you as you drink it but I wouldn’t have another.

12 oz. bottle. Pours clear, pale gold with a medium, bubbly, white head. The aroma is wheat, lemons, faint spices, and honey. The flavor is very sweet, with just a touch of bitterness in the middle. The palate is light and a little syrupy. The finish is clean. Overall, a tasty and drinkable beer.

I am utterly shocked at how well this beer came out of the bottle; the liquid in my glass actually looks drinkable, hazy gold with a huge, white, lace-giving head. Holy shit. But them’s the highlights, folks. The nose is nonexistent, lacking any character despite the bubbly head. Tastes sweet and clovey and full of so much damn honey you get scared of being stung. Yet this sweetness is fleeting, soon replaced by a bubbly, flavorless finish that, while somewhat smooth, does nothing for the brew whatsoever. (5/28/09)

Bottle - pours light golden yellow, I can barely pick up honey on the nose. I was expecting more honey in the taste. This almost tastes like an ordinary light beer. It is easy to drink, Really NOT not impressive.

Bottle: Poured a light golden color ale with a small foamy head with OK retention and no lacing. Aroma consists of light wheat malt with notes of orange peel and honey. Taste is also a nice mix between some wheat malt with notes of orange peel and honey. Overall this is quite bland with a limited flavour profile.

Enjoyed on my trip to Tennessee. Pours a clean golden-yellow colour with a decent white soapy head, average retention and minimal lacing. Wheat aroma with mild notes of citrus and other malts. Smooth watery mouthfeel that is refreshing, medium-thin body. The honey is nice and present, but not too sweet. Just right in the mix, with the wheat and citrus added (which is almost not apparent - like in the nose). An overall pretty refreshing summer ale with the mild sweetness of honey.
