Draft. Far more interesting than I remember my first tasting in a bottle. Sweet, apple-like taste with a wheaty body. Still a little bland, but has a small amount of citrus kick to it. Not terribly interesting, but a pretty dependable option to go to in many Canadian bars.

Basic beer. Nothing very special. I got a couple cans as part of a Big Rock variety pack. Drinkable, mass market beer.

Not as good as the other beers made in calgary. Brewsters and wildrose are better. Thick head with a hoppy taste. Wheat is faint and almost non-existant. Can find on tap in most Calgary bars.

This is not a normal wheat beer. Lacks the straw colour and citrusy flavour. Tastes more like an ale. Sharp aftertaste is the only thing that is good about this beer.

not very wheaty really. maybe a little tartness, that’s it. more like a lager. not very impressive, but I’d drink it on a hot day.

Can’t escape Grasshopper here in Alberta. In the past I thought it was better than it actually is. Suprisingly weak flavour for a wheat beer. Lacks the crispness of better brands. Average.

Clear and golden almost with an orange tinge. Big head quickly sinks but lacing is respectable. Aroma is hoppy and grainy. Taste is rather plain and I sure don't experience wheat. A smooth and easy drinking beer for a hot day I guess. Not great in comparison to the hoe..
