Sample at the brewpub. Slightly hazy yellow-gold color with a minimal white head that dissipates quickly to an outer ring. Spotty lacing. Aroma of wheat, spice and malt. Light-bodied with flavors of citrus, wheat and spices. The finish is fruity with a mildly spicy aftertaste. Slightly above average overall.
