An explosion of tart, fruity flavors will erupt in your senses as you take your first sip of this perfectly balanced wheat beer. The sensation can only be matched by the brilliant aroma from dry hopping with massive amounts of Amarillo and Motueka hops.

Pour is a cloudy yellow with a large white head. Aroma is actually quite hoppy with a big fruity citrus. Flavor is again quite hoppy for a wheat. Some wheat malt/honey malt sweetness. Finish is bitter and a bit chewy. This was surprisingly hoppy and pretty flavorful.

Some lime and some hay. Light pepper and peel. Golden pour with good head and lacing. Bitter finish. Reminds me of Right PRoper’s range life. Great balance and easy drinking. Free sample at Churchkey from brewer.

Bottle: Hazy gold with a tall, off-white head. Orange-peel, soft wheat malt aroma. Taste is orange malt...citrus.....orange/grapefruit-peel. A steady, citrus-peel bittering. Ok.....but rather muted feeling all around.

Bottle. Orange wheat malt and orange peel aroma. Hazy golden yellow with large light tan head. Moderately sweet citrus, light wheat malt, and moderately bitter. Decent body, carbonation a bit light. Nice hops flavor but malt pretty light.

Tap at Next Door. Unfiltered orange-tan body. Off-white steady head. Pretty official new school hop tones, nice for the style. A very unique taste, yeast forward. Dryness, earthy cool crispness. Pretty intense for the ABV. Solid White IPA. Quality.

bottle - Pours hazy gold with a two finger white head. It smells of yeast, wheat, and citrus. The flavor is moderately bitter with citrus hops and spicy yeast. It’s easy drinking but with considerable bitterness in the finish. Enjoyable.
