Bottle from the mixed 12 pack from Heavens Gas Brilliantly clear medium gold in color with a decent sized fluffy white head that slowly recedes. Spicy earthy floral notes with bits of citrus and holiday spices. Not Bad

Hazy yellow pour with a small white head. Aroma is of nutmeg and citrus. The flavor is sweet and malty with citrus, nutmeg, and clove. It’s easy drinking and tasty.

Hazy bright gold with a medium sized foamy white head. Dry, grainy and yeasty with vague holiday spices. Medium finish and body.

Teeter bottle. Light gold with perhaps a hint of haze. Wheat, coriander, light spice nose. Wheat, coriander, light citrus, sugar. Oddly sweet - not cloying or anything like that, but like they added sugar. Meh.

12 ounce bottle. Hazy orange gold pour. Minimal white head disappears quickly. Mild bready malt nose hints at citrus fruit. Somewhat bland citrus flavors upfront. A bit of stone fruit as well. Rather insipid overall. A disappointment.

Nutmeg, clove, lemon, wheat malt, and straw aroma. Slightly hazy pale yellow with moderate head. Moderately sweet nutmeg, clove, lemon, wheat malt, and mildly bitter straw flavor. Good body. Strong spice presence.

Bottle from Holiday Pack. Pours a clearish deep gold with a finger of white foam that dissipates. Light notes of grain, citrus and coriander. Crisp and clean on the palate, easy drinking with a nice clove and faint banana note on the finish. Very enjoyable.

Refrigerated 12 oz brown bottle, best before April 2022, poured into a weizen glass. Hazy golden with small white head. Aroma is wheat esters, medium body, medium carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is wheat esters, citrus, and a little spice.
