Oberon is a wheat ale fermented with Bell's signature house ale yeast, mixing a spicy hop character with mildly fruity aromas. The addition of wheat malt lends a smooth mouthfeel, making it a classic summer beer. Made with only 4 ingredients, and without the use of any spices or fruit, Oberon is the color and scent of sunny afternoon.

One of my go to wheat beers. A very nice citrus orange color with a nose to match. Its classic wheat with a hint of spice on the end. It doesn't sell well in my area so I can get it for $4 a six pack right nnow.a hard deal to beat

Nice refreshing summertime beer. Not going to knock your socks off but it’s a good crushable session beer. Good for the lake, cookouts, pool and tailgating.

July 2023. Hartwell. Nice can. Karen said it had a good head but she is not a beer drinker so we have to weigh that with a grain of salt. A little bitter tasting overall it’s nothing that’s knocking my socks off, but I would certainly drink it over other things. This is a pretty good review don’t you think

Lemon zest and some yeasty alcohol esters. Mouth feel is really where its at with a nice bite but still syrupy and not too heavy. Slight wheat and lemony taste with a slight floral hop.

Beautiful pour…deep yellow gold with a healthy white foam head. Muted notes of bread, grassy wheat, and light sweet floral notes. Tastes of malts, wheat , slight phenolic sand a hint of sweetness. Great mouthfeel…silky smooth on the tongue with carbonation and little on the lower side of medium. Overall I am not a big wheat beer fan, but I can drink this one and enjoy it.
