    A great twist on a wheat beer. All the normal spices (coriander, et al.), unfiltered opaqueness, frothy head, light yellow color. The addition of a good hoppy kick makes it quite distinguishable from the pack. The orange zest and hop character blend very nicely. Refreshing and right in the $10-12/6-pack price that all drinkable beer goes for in these parts.

    Pours misty yellow with lasting head and great lacing. Aroma is bright with citrus and floral notes. Flavor is lemony with some pine resin; enjoyably bitter. Body was light and carbonation was a little too strong for my preference. Overall, quite tasty. I would certainly pick up anothe 6er sometime.

    Hazy light yellow with a one inch creamy cap floating on top. First sip is refreshing heavy smooth lemonaid with a wheaty banana malt backbone. Aroma is light, flowery, lemon, very wheaty almost bordering on biscut but it never fully gets there. This is way to easy to drink!!! This beers screams summer patio. Lots of flowers, hitting hibiscus. Starting to get noticably sweet toward end of pint. Drink up boys!!

    On tap @ Deschutes, Portland. Straw yellow pour, white head, some lacing. Clean lemon-citrus/Belgian yeasty/clean aroma and flavor, very refreshing, citrusy fruity, nice bitter linger. I dig this style when done right and this one is Right-eous!

    Hazy yellow pour with a foamy white head. Very pleasant fruity aroma--lots of lemon and other citrusy fruit. Taste is fruity as well (lemon) with notes of yeast and spice. Light bitterness. Not bad for a style I am not overly fond of.

    Pours a hazy straw yellow color with two fingers of off-white head. As big as it was, it settled pretty darn fast to almost nothing. Decent lacing. Subtle spice, hay, clean, lemon, crisp...pretty tame nose, as I'm not getting the hops much at all. Nice lemon flavor up front with a touch of bitterness. The soft spices of a witiber start to pull through not long after. It's pretty refreshing, but I'd like more hops. There's some citrus towards the back-end with some mild yet lingering bitterness on the finish.Light body with moderate carbonation.

    bright light yellow with thin white head. aroma is more lemon than expected, definitely abounding in various citrus (from the citra hops and orange) aromas with a hint of spice. the dank hops are in the flavor a little more. aroma slightly wit leaning, flavor pretty well balanced. light, refreshing. good summer brew. still hoping to find this in 6-packs... 8/31 finally showed up in bottles. A steal at $7 or so per sixer!

    Comes out of the tap a hazy solar yellow with an OK white head. Aroma is hoppy and lemony, not like other IPAs I have sampled - but I’ve never tried a "white" IPA before. Flavor is more yeast than hoppy - but quite tasty and ~!satisfying with a fruity undertone. Definitely different! Body is average, but fizz is strong. Whatever you call it, a worthy brew if you visit the Pacific Northwest.
