Rogue Somer Orange Honey Ale

Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 5 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 6

2013 as Tracktown Honey Orange Wheat. Would make a decent summer brew but its pretty simple. As advertised, light honey and orange, not much to the beer outside of that...

Was available at the LCBO for summer 2011. Pours a cloudy golden colour with a smaller white head and minimal lace. Mild sweet nose with the honey and citrus from the orange with notes of vanilla. Wet mouthfeel made for the summer sweat quencher. The taste is quite light, not too sweet, just a tad fruity with not much aftertaste. Decent for what this is made for, but probably Rogue's lease favorite brew.

The beer poured a hazy yellow colour with a generous white head which quickly dissipated. The aroma was honey, spices, and grains. The mouthfeel was medium bodied, with medium carbonation. The flavour was spicy, with a slight citric sourness, not a favourite.

It pours a hazy apricot nectar color with a thin white head and a ring of lacing. An aroma of wheat malts, oranges, light pineapple, honey, and mild spices. The mouthfeel is smooth and fairly rich. Flavors of wheat malts, orange juice, honey, light hops, bread and yeast, and mild spices. Good! .. goes down smooth..

This beer screams the word SUBTLE. Flavor is complex floral and delicate with subtle hints of honey. Just a hint of dry sweetness and complexity. Carbonation is rather like a sparkling wine with an annoyingly big head that forms with the first pour. As with many Rogue offerings it is a little on the expensive side, so while good it will never be a everyday beer.

650ml bottle pours a cloudy pale gold ale in the tumbler with a puffy 2 finger cap. Light cabonation. Aroma- a blast of sweet biscuity aroma hits the nose as the beer is decanted then you detect the coriander , chamomile and citrus peel...very nice nose to this witbier. Tastes pretty much like it smells : dry, biscuit malts, light natural sweetness, some nutty chewy oat infusion, nice amalgam of spices, citrus zest and hops - all in great balance ....goes to a crisp dry almost puckering finish with a citrus kiss at the end. A damn fine Witbier with some remarkably well constructed differences.

A decnt offering from Rogue, as advertised an aroma of honey with some citrus. A cloudy yellow body with some yeast chunks floating about. Flavor is honey and straw with some citrus hops in the background. Overall it was o.k. especially if you like honey.

Cloudy straw with a small but long lasting cap. Sour wheat aroma with orange zest, kind of a normal Wit smell. Taste very watered. Malts are weak and the taste of old south orange juice is dominant. Wow I can even taste hops in the brew wasn’t expecting that. Rose water?!?!? seems out of place. Beer is getting very flowery now when warm. This is so very dry its giving me pasties. This is a beer you can pound do to its lack of substance and flavor. blaaaaaaaaaaa

A semi murky yellow colored beer. A big fluffy white head. Moderate hang time settling into an impressive lacing. An earthy and banana wheat nose rises from the body. A light body with crisp carbonation. A nice smooth finish. Non hop floral in the taste. Wheat and corn like sweetness. Not my best Rogue, but drinkable.
