Bask in the sunny little thing, a wheat ale made with citrus for radiant flavor that’s bold yet easy going, and balanced by a soft and smooth finish.

From Strumpf Getränkmarkt, Ingelheim, in august 2023. Best before 05/24, tasting it on monday, relax, at home. Nice and tasty wheat ale, brewed on the American way, light, fruity, note of orange/lemon, a bit herbal bitter, cereal, coriander.

5/VII/24 - 12Fl. Oz. can from the Ramstein Air Base gas station shop @ the Gibb’s crib, BB: n/a, canned: IX/20/23 14:14, 53PKG (2024-487) Thanks to Brian G. for sharing the can!

Pretty clear light yellow blond beer, small creamy white head, unstable, falls down quickly, non adhesive. Aroma: lots of dried orange peel, some fresh oranges, grapefruit. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: all orange peel, very zesty, fresh oranges, blood oranges, juicy. Aftertaste: more oranges, zesty, very fruity, so much orange flavour, it’s almost lemonade, pretty sweet too, slightly sourish, meh.

Can. Cloudy pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma of orange juice, lemons, oranges, wheat and tangerines. Taste of oranges, lemons, malts, wheat, zest, orange juice, hints of tropical fruits and yeast. Sweet and sour-ish. Low bitterness. Medium carbonation. Wow this is refreshing to the max. Feels like a strange mix between a Radler and a Belgian IPA without the bitterness. Very good.

Can picked up from Globus Getrankemarkt Plattling and consumed at home Saturday 28th October 2023, listening to Elkka - DJ Kicks, we're doing a big joint cookathon with Scott and Mand', Celeriac Schnitzel, Pistachio and Feta Dip, Roasted Red Pepper Chill Dip with homemade Pitta Bread and Zatar Crumbed Halloumi and a Toblerone Ice Cream for dessert. Pours hazy light gold with a mid sized white head. Wow the aroma is really in yer face, lots of orange quite pithy, orange blossom. Wheatiness in the mouth, a little zappy edge, mostly citrus and once again orange, super soft mouthfeel, some sweetness throughout. Good.

Meh. Really strong orange zest and peel flavors and aroma. Light bitterness and malt flavors, it's totally dominates by the orange peel. Light bodied. Orange oil aftertaste. Weird.
