Hazy orange, slowly rising carb trails, ample head of foam with long lasting coverage. Arcs of drippy lace stick around the edges of the glass.
Aroma is floral, minor note of orange zest, with some caramel malt sweetness coming through.
Likely not the freshest bottle, but still drinking decent enough.
Bitter herbal hop flavor with some minor orange peel, dry finish with a lingering pleasant bitterness.
Smooth and light, some light sweetness, but thankfully not cloying after the caramel malt aroma.
Overall it's not bad, will try to catch it during harvest season in the Fall.

Overboard bitterness with no balance. Slightly cloudy, little lacing and no carbonation. Hops were local (Illinois) and certainly plenty for bittering but needed more flavor and aroma.

Horrible. Straight bitter with no substantial flavors to compliment, other than a faint herbal/onion flavor. Just super over the top , abrasive bitter bite. There are no redeeming qualities here.

Beautiful golden orange. Scent is subdued but piney and slightly floral. Taste is similar though the hoppiness is not as strong as you might expect in a wet hopped ale. The mouthfeel is the thin side yet has a creamy quality that makes this beer really pleasant. This beer is not as bold or distinct as some harvest ales but it is an extremely solid and well-made beer. The bottle tells me the hops are homegrown which makes the beer even more impressive.
My first sample from Wild Onion. I'll keep an eye out for more.
