On tap, quick berry fruitiness retains citrus-hopped fizz and ripe grapefruit-tangerine-orange blossom sweetness. Sunset orange turbidity matches thick yeast-malt concentration.

Aggressively hop-embittered ruby-browned winter celebrator trickles brown sugared mocha-vanilla malting atop cocoa-powdered cinnamon-ginger spicing, honey nut glaze, and tertiary fig-prune-plum nuances. Tea-like midst surges to sherry-like finish, absorbing some lingered phenol acidity.

Refreshing amber-hued brew offers dark fruit aroma, gradually increasing lemon and spice insinuations, and strangely, a noticeable lack of wheat essence. Definitely one of Saranac’s finest, this unlikely ‘wheat’ beer sprinkles acidic citrus notes over perky hops and lively carbonation for crisp thirst quencher perfect for pool parties and beachcombers.

Softly carbolic pale-toned summer brew proves non-traditional, as dry barley-roasted oats-toasted cereal graining undoes expected summery fruitiness by constricting fructose tolerance. Daintily-spiced yellow-fruited center wavers. Worse, muted sour wheat finish tanks.

Moderate pale-toned white-headed summer ale with fresh-cut wheat afterburner loses refreshing citric zest due to incomplete fruit stimulation, flattened lemony hops, and lack of serious grain punch. Pleasant raspberry-blueberry-apricot tartness doesn’t quite linger enough below.

Basic pale golden moderate-bodied summer fodder fizzles. Seltzer-like fizz hides tart citric serenade and sour clover honey affinity. Worse, astringent pomegranate acridity ransacks grassy hop earthiness.

Horrid summertime wheat ale with diacetyl lemon-drop souring, acrid cabbage-asparagus nastiness, and dank metallic finish further disrupted by tannic white grape and green apple acidity.

Unspecific German-styled summer ale relegates orange-fruited nature and dry nuttiness to delicate grain base as buttery diacetyl flail nearly detracts from poignant mango-strawberry midst.

Lively lemon-limed grapefruit souring gets pleasing white-pepperd coriander-rosemary spicing and bitter piney hop linger before herbal white ale finish completes score.

Affable sour-doughed honeyed wheat frontage trails off to nutty pine forest where hemp, hay, and leathery horsehide illusions reside. Cookie-like remnant further complicates unorthodox fruit-less Kolsch-styled ale.

Fruitful herb-spiced ’07 seasonal (contract brewed by Wild Goose) is well balanced moderate-bodied Belgian-styled witbier with peppery coriander spicing inundating bright orange peel expectancy to thin biscuit-y wheat spine. Refreshing eucalyptus-spearmint perk uplifts lemony bruised orange midst, effervescent tangerine-pineapple tang, and slim candied tartness of commendable knockoff.
