From Beer Drop, best by June 16th 2026.
It pours a clear pale gold/orange with plenty of foam, good retention and lacing.
The smell I got as soon as I pulled the tab. Big citrus aromas, mostly oranges but some light lemon. Hints of tartness? I'm not sure aboot that. Coriander is big also.
The taste is is orange citrus that leans towards the sweet side. Light lemon presence, wheat, a hint of fruity tartness. Coriander is definitely there.
Very good mouthfeel, I could drink this again but no hurry.

12 oz. can from Publix. Pours a hazy/ cloudy gold color with a thick off-white head and good retention. Light lacing. Light citrus aroma. The taste follows the nose with light citrus/orange peel notes with a rather flat, lightly boozy finish. Not enough wheat base beer to support. The 9.5% ABV is fairly well hidden. Definitely warming. More boozy as it warms. It just needs a little more body. Medium-light body. Lower than expected carbonation. Not bitter. Okay.

Banana and pineapple nose. Clear orange, thin head. Orange, banana, peach. Spicy clove phenols. Medium body, easy carbonation. Good flavors that don't work so well together, kind of a mess. It's trying to do too much, but I still like it bettter than an ordinary tripel.

Can for a few greenbacks. How far is vikky going to to take the monkey BS? Just asking. Anywho: Pour is pale yellow fairly clear with no head after a minute. Rather sweet mild nose. First taste is big booze with a very slight hint of tartness. Not really getting any negative bitter wheat ale character. In the middle its still quite boozy, you gottah figger; after all its near 10%. Well, even tho its a little boozy, its been going down pretty easy, which makes it a little scary for me. I could drink a few of these in no time. In the end, good thing I only picked up a single in a mixed six pack or I'd have been going on a little vacation, hehehehh.
gave a cheers!

Opalescent to hazy orange colour, half inch of dense ecru-ish head; aroma of tangerine, marmalade, candied orange peel and maybe some earthy notes; taste is the same with some hoppy bitterness and grape-like notes; not bad
gave a cheers!

Hazy golden yellow with moderate head. Orange, lemon, wheat malt, straw, and alcohol aroma. Moderately sweet orange/lemon, wheat malt, and mildly bitter grass and alcohol flavor. Okay body. Slightly boozy.

Beerbox subscription. Aroma is packed with orange, bready malt; also, peppery, alcohol. Taste is sweet with noticeable alcohol, orange, and bready malt flavors.

Stovepipe can from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours translucent gold with a somewhat transient foamy white head. Citrus aroma. Med body at least. Flavor is mostly citrus with wheat support. There's a touch of yeast and possibly a hint of banana. Or not. Heat is barely noticeable. Nice drink.
gave a cheers!
