This beer is the freshest to taste and the easiest to drink among the others we offer, and also happens to be the best selling one. By using over 200lbs of fresh blood oranges in every batch, we came up with a beer that explodes with flavor, yet balances its sweetness with just a pinch of tartness. It is this balance, combined with an extraordinarily light wheat body, that makes this brew perfect for any occasion, any time of the year!

473ml can. Hazy, orangey, bright golden colour with small to average, frothy, rapidly diminishing, white head. Wheaty, minimally bready, and slightly fruity aroma, a touch of oat flakes and orange. Taste is fruity, minimally citrusy, sour-ish, fruit acidic, some residual sweetness, hints of orange, orange zest, slightly bready, wheaty background. So-so.

Can thanks to Sarah! Pours a hazy pale yellow with an orange hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has an orange soda note with some sweet wheat and a bit of juiciness. Flavor has sweet wheat and sweet orange juice that give an orange soda like feel to the beer.

Can from Bine & Vine. Pours very hazy light gold with a white head. Aroma of citrus and zest. Med body or nearly. Flavor is pretty much orange zest and citrus - with some wheat backing. Could be a hint of banana. Certainly has strong flavors for a wit!
