Draft. Clear and gold with a lasting head. Aroma is light: maybe some crackers and honey. Taste is a little more noticeable of the same. Light bodied and tingly. I like the light touch on the honey, the absence of a dominating citrus flavor, and the less-sickening yeast in this one as compared to most American Wheats. A pleasant surprise, and a good introduction to quality beer for the BMC light lager crowd.

Tap. Honey-berry wheat aroma - very nice. LIght yellow color with small head. Light sweet honey and raspberry malt flavor with nice body. Smooth and very tasty.

When brought to me, I thought they had given me the blonde by mistake, then the first sip, I knew I had the honey wheat. I love a good wheat beer, but this did not do it for me. The honey is lacking in this honey beer, but still there was a hint. Not my favorite there. Try a sample before ordering a pint of it.

(Draught) Pours a pale yellow color with a thin white head. Has a light wheat aroma. Has a light wheat flavor with a hint of honey.
