12 oz bottle. Where’s the hop? Aroma is malts, with caramel. Flavor is malt, touch of yeast. Where’s the hops again? Wasn’t surprised since I know what I was drinking was from A-B.

12 oz. bottle. Orange color with a decent fine beige head. Aromas of orange peel and wheat. Medium body with near creamy carbonation. Flavor is wheat and orangey citrus. Finish seems a bit grainy. Don’t get that much caramel. It’s ok.

Hazy golden amber body with a medium frothy white head. Sweet fruity and wheat aroma. Some light wheat, graininess, light caramelization and a touch of hops. Medium light body with moderate carbonation.

bottle - Pours a light orange color with a thin white head. The aroma is a very mild wheat malt. The flavor is of a light wheat beer with a little caramel malt. There’s a bit of hops in there as well that comes through in the mildly dry, bitter finish. It’s not horrible, but once again I have to wonder why A-B can’t do better on this "limited edition" beer. Even with their specialty beers, they’re still making least common denominator brews.

Pour is a bright orange with a large white head. The aroma has a very minor touch of citrus but not much else. Flavor is a little sweet and again a touch of citrus in there. Deffinatly not a must have and no where near a wheat beer.
