Tap from the brewery. Pours hazy orange with white head. Aroma of hops, bread. Tastes of wheat, bitter hops and a hint of citrus. Extremely tasty and refreshing

A: slight haze; deep gold in color; 1 finger ivory head that receded to a splotchy cap with big bubbles; very little lacing;

S: tropical fruit first, then pale malt;

T: not a lot of flavor; what's there is pretty nondescript; a little floral; a little pale malt; mild bitterness on the finish;

M: light to medium bodied; high carbonation; lightly dry finish;

O: easy drinking; needs a flavor jolt;

Served in a pint glass at the brewpub. From notes. Reviewed 23 November 2014.
4/3/3.5/4/3.25
Hazy, with lots of lace.
Faint and boring nose, with tepid yeast.
Meh, it's a decent wheat-- moderately carbonated, clean, lightly spicy yeast finish.
Poor effort. Look elsewhere at Avondale.

Everything I hate about wheat beer...too musty tasting. Taster at the brewery with Bro and Bob, waiting for Tom and Don to join us for beers and supper. Great brewery with cool outdoors area.

On tap at Jim n Nick's. Hazy orange color, no head retention to speak of. Very orangey aroma with the malt laying in the background. Taste is on the orange side of citrus with a nice wheaty backbone. Having been born and raised in Birmingham, it's really nice to see the local guys putting out quality brews, especially in what in my opinion is an underappreciated style.

Hazy yellow/orange color, not much head or lacing and has an aroma of mild citrus and sweet malts. Taste is nice sweet maltiness with citrus and mild bitterness. A great B-ham refreshing summer brew!

Thick lasting head with nice lacing. Cloudy burnt orange colored. Smells like sweet oranges and Lemon peel. Nice carbonation, crisp with a good weight. Tastes like it smells up front with a slight hoppy grapefruit bitterness. Not the best pale Wheat I've had but still pretty good.
