Pours a translucent straw color with a 1-finger white head that quickly disappears.

Smell is very faint--sour yeast and slight wheat and caramel. The taste is honey, orange, sour yeast, wheat with an astringent quality. Mouthfeel is crisply carbonated with a fair amount of acidity in the finish.

This has some refreshing qualities, but the inconsistent flavors and harsh acidity in the finish are a turn off. I thought the sourness evidenced subpar ingredients rather than wanted qualities.

A: The beer is clear golden yellow in color and has a moderate amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that quickly died down, leaving only a thin ring of bubbles around the sides of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of honey and wheat are present in the nose.
T: Like the smell, the taste has hints of sweetness and flavors of honey followed by wheat and malts along with some hints of oranges.
M: It feels a little more than light-bodied on te palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is rather flavorful, although I think the honey and sweetness detracted from its drinkability.
