Citrus Wheat Ale
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.

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.

Can (5/15/23) pour. It's a bright yellow with nice sparkle, thin cap of white head with fair retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong orange and wheat. Taste follows aroma. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, an approachable wheat ale that's fairly tasty. Won't knock your socks off but fine.

Can, 0.355l. Aroma of orange, flowers and resin. Pours cloudy pale golden color with thin creamy white head and soft visible carbonation. Taste starts light to medium sweet grainy and citrusy, following is grassy, mouthfeel is smooth, while finish is mild bitter. Light to medium body, slick texture and lively carbonation in palate. A bit too cloudy…

Aromas are citrusy, mainly orange with a bit of wheat beer. Flavors are like nose, slightly more sweet than tart with average bitter. Body is okay likewise finish. Nothing too complex, drinkable but I wouldn't look for another. Maybe cook with it.

12 oz. can from Total Wine. Pours a hazy light gold color with a large white head and great retention. Decent lacing. Citrus-forward aroma. The taste follows the nose, but the citrus flavor is lighter than the aroma. Light wheat base beer. Fairly light body for a wheat ale. It's juicy without becoming a too fruity. Light carbonation. Low bitterness. A good, refreshing light beer.
