An American interpretation of a classic Belgian wheat ale. A hazy light golden color gives this beer its name. This light and refreshing ale is brewed with just a hint of coriander and orange zest giving way to a citrus finish.

From the can, it pours a slightly hazy yellow color with a modest, soon diminishing white head that ends up as a light ring. The nose gets some spices and a bit of light malt. The mouth gets the same: spices and a light malt flavor.

Okay--Very similar to Blue Moon. Not a lot of taste. Taste a bit of Clive and pepper and not much else. Works on a hot summer day. Not one of my favs.

Pours a hazy pale golden color with a fizzy white head. Smells of pepper, coriander & toasted wheat. Tastes of cracked pepper, orange zest, coriander & toasted wheat. Medium-light body with medium carbonation, foamy mouthfeel with a crisp finish. Pretty good, peppery notes are a bit overbearing at time and take away from drinkability

Taste: Follows the nose. Pretty standard wit flavors.
Mouthfeel: Light and easy.
Overall: Pretty well executed wit. Good beer for a hot day.
