Poured from 22oz bomber into a dimpled mug.
Appearance: medium orange hue with a bit of haze and a thin layer of frothy ivory foam atop. The color is quite nice.
Smell: lightly wheaty and refreshing, with a bit of orange peel in the works. It does seem a little on the sweet side.
Taste: malty wheat flavor with just a dash of the orange from the aroma; it's a decently-crafted wheat ale, if not a terribly special one.
Mouthfeel: medium-light body with a light carbonation and a low creaminess.
Overall: a decent enough beer, but I won't seek it out again.

Poured a finger of head on a clear, medium straw colored body.
The aroma is really nice: Valencia orange, lemon, grapefruit and some malt.
The taste is moderate orange sweet with a touch of lemon bitterness at the end.
The texture is soft with moderate carbonation.
Drinkable, the flavor is nice if shallow.

Picked up a bottle on recent trip to Santa Rosa at the Bottle Barn.
A: Pours a hazy orange with a half inch thick white head which fades rapidly to the rim leaving faint lace.
N: Bready yeast, spices, orangy citrus, wheat grains and fruity esters.
T: Follows nose with wheat malt, yeast, corriander, faint pepper, banana and clove, oranges,
M: Light body and carbonation. Fairly well balanced.
O: Refreshing and easy to drink. Worth a try for the price.
