What the brewers say
“Harvest a medley of orange and cranberry in this wheat ale.”
What our panel thought
“Intensely fruited nose. Both cranberry and orange are distinctive throughout. The cranberry flavors blend well with the citrus notes and create a nice sweet/tart counterplay. Finish is tart and crisp, with a nice cranberry bite. Despite the brighter tartness from the cranberry, the overall impression is bit clunky.”
What our editors thought
“Attractive yet restrained cranberry aroma opens into a blatantly sweet and almost saccharine flavor, for a reverse of expectations that leaves it plodding.”
