Pours a hazy golden with a thin white head. fresh tangerine peel aromas abound, quite nice. Taste begins with a rich tangerine flavor, then a little bit of bread, finishing with a dry, citrus finish. Mouthfeel is good. Overall quite a nice beer. You can tell you are drinking a wheat beer, even with the tons of citrus flavor.

Two barriers to enjoying this. One, you likely need to be a fan of summer'y wheat beers, and two, okay with fruit flavors in your brew. If you check both of those boxes, then this is a perfect beer.

Look: Pours a clear orange and quickly, a fluffy white head forms and puckers away to a pillow, leaving spotty lacing behind
Aroma: Tangerine fruit and rind, light wheat malt, orange juice, and fruity notes. This smells straight up like a tangerine bomb
Taste: Opens up with a light floral note before the tangerine party ensues with loads of fruit, juice, and rind all in play. Wheat malt sneaks a peek in the middle and blends nicely before the tangerine train returns to close it out
Mouthfeel: Light but full, clean, spritzy carbonation and on the higher side, and clean and soft on the finish
Overall: I dig it. I’m admittedly not a fruit-in-beer guy but wanted to revisit and review this because I hadn’t had it in years, since first trying these folks’ offerings. A solid and refreshing American Wheat Ale with a nice fruit presence that doesn’t dominate nor taste artificial. Tasty stuff and worth looking into if fruited wheats are your thing

IDC what anyone else says, this beer is perfect (I might have a thing for the tangerine flavor). Color is slightly hazy and orange. Smell and taste are a perfect "tangerine" flavor like the name suggests. This beer is even better on-tap. Now down to just one case. Gonna need to get more.

On tap in a standard pint glass.
Slightly burnt orange color with a near 1f white cap. A little wave and a few spots of lacing. It’s cloudy.
Sweet tangerine aroma identical to the small ones that I peel and consume while on the golf course.
Wheat flavor opens then the tangerine jumps into the mix. Sweet and easy.
Light and summery. Sweet beginning with a drying finish. Some peel feel, too.
I find it better than its ratings. I’m enjoying this brew and would do it again. Summer fun.
