A: A somewhat hazy medium amber with a deep orange hue. The white head is quick to dissipate and made of rocky bubbles.

S: Well balanced, moderate aroma of chia tea spices and an American Wheat Ale. The chia tea has cardamon, cinnamon and clove aromas while the underlying beer has citrus hops and a soft wheat aroma. There are light ginger and clove notes as well.

T: Moderate wheat sweetness with a moderate to moderately-strong chia tea flavor with the ginger be the more predominate flavor. There are other spice flavor of cardamon and a light clove as wel. Low hop bitterness. The balance is about even the finish is medium and the aftertaste is of tea spices.

M: Medium-light bodied with moderately strong carbonation. Just a slight prickle on the tip of the tongue.

O: A a great example of a balance spiced beer where you can taste and smell both the spices and the base beer style; to often the spice just takes over but not here. It not a beer I'd go tracking down or highly recommend but it's good for it's style and the brewers intent.

Edit: This is a "decent" spiced brew, but I would prefer tea every time over this bottle.

Picked up the winter 12-pack tonight at the 16th st. Albertsons for $13... This one is poured into my slim tulip.. hazy orange amber with no real head or retention.

Nose is expected sweet spice.. sweet orange, sweet cinnamon, nutmeg...

Flavor has all the same aromas translated on to the palate with some malty sweetness... Spicy and little promise of anything better.

Good body and carbonation for a pretty average beer.
