The beer pours a cloudy yellow when decanted - leaving quite a bit of sediment in the bottle. The head was an off white color, about a half inch, and it lingered nicely.

The smell seems subdued. It is bready and yeasty initially, with lemony citrus coming out after a few sniffs. There is some spicy character and floral floating over the top.

The taste is rather on the sweet side and bready. More lemon emerges as the beer sits and warms, and the spicy notes hang in the background. It all ends up being fruity and floral with just a little clove-like spice in the background.

The feel is slick and smooth, lively enough carbonation to keep it from being coating and annoying.

Overall, a very nice wheat beer that I would recommend when you want something on the lighter side of things.

This beer is one of my personal favorites. It is fruity but a little bit spicy. This complex flavor allows many people to find qualities they enjoy in it.

I enjoy the citrus accents, especially orange and lemon notes that come though.

Easy to find, and easy to drink. What more can you ask for.

I am a fan of any type of wheat ales so I decided to try this one. Bell's is very unique. First smell I was hit with orange and citrus aromas. Next came in the light hops and the overall smell of the beer. The taste was more fruit forward than I was hoping for but the beer was a good beer overall.

Appearance: Deeply hazy opaque golden glass fails to hold a head. Looks a little limp.

Aroma: Citric and peach esters, wet wheat.

Taste: Lemon juice, peach nectar, slightly sweet finish makes for a nice round profile.

Mouthfeel: Slightly gritty, medium light body, slightly dry finish.

Overall: A nice beer. Not a favorite style for me, but this is well done.
