What Our Editors Thought

“Soft citrus on the nose, lemon with a wheaty note. Gentle in the sip, lower carbonation heightens the perception of citrus sweetness, but it’s backed by a fine tart note. Bright, refreshing, zippy.”

What Our Panel Thought

“Light, tart, citrusy. Orange aroma is reminiscent of digging your fingernails into a fresh easy-peeler. On tasting, it’s more lemony up front but shifts to orange mid-sip with a slight graininess to the malt character. Perhaps needs a bit more carbonation for a refreshing summer-afternoon sipper.”

What the Brewers Say

A crisp, refreshing sour German ale with Valencia orange added.”
