Commercial Description:
This is a pale wheat that’s hopped up. No, not paler that a wheat -- it’s a wheat that also includes pale malt, for a slightly maltier wheat that includes a ton of hops. Consider it a spring / summer ale for all you hopheads!

Poured a cloudy brownish color with a little orangish hue. Aroma was pretty hoppy with not much malt coming through. This really seemed like an IPA and not a wheat at all. Reminded me of gumballhead in that the malt and wheat profile was not all that noticable. I loved the amarillo with this though. A great beer from barleys.

Had this on tap at the Smokehouse. Fresh nose of hops spice & light resin, wheat & grass, flowers as the brew warms; and I swear some honeydew is included. Different, I like it. The brew is sparkling hazy hondy amber with melon highlights. The off-white creamy head is mostly diminishing and leaves behind a light sheet of lace. The front is balanced to bitter, the middle has a slight acidic tang. The toasty finish is floral with a respectable amount of IBU’s. The medium body is dry & soft, the finish is very astringent. Definitely my favorite american wheat to date.

Apricot bodied and cloudy. Head is creamy and off-white. Lace clings to glass. Nose is hoppy and fragrant. Hoppy flavor; citrus with a small amount of pine. Finish is bitter and creamy.

On Firkin at the Smokehouse - Pours cloudy amber with a short offwhite head. Aromas of straight amarillo hops and a good dose of them too.. Much lemon and orange in the aroma. Flavor is very much a dose of citrus too. Lots of lemon and orange, but behind that I could definitely find some balance in the wheat. Just a touch of bannana there. And some grainy notes. Pleasant crisp and clean palate. An easy drinker for sure and it complimented my Walleye very well.
