Big Rock Grasshopper Wheat Ale

Brewed by Big Rock Brewery
Style: Wheat Ale
Calgary, Canada

A better than average very light tasting beer. Very refreshing. Thin head, mild taste, but quite agreeable. THey serve this on Westjet Airlines, and I feel it makes the flight worthwhile.

355ml can.This is tasty beer! Very easy drinking , tastes fresh although not very carbonated.This beer tastes natural and has no aftertaste. Its body is certainly on the light side with a small head and it has a very slight aroma. I recomend anyone to pick up a case of this beer.

A great quality beer. AromaBig creamy looking head atop golden body. Small champagne bubbles running up through the brew. Very slight smell to it: bit of sourness. Smooth, yeasty flavor (though this is a filtered wheat) very slight tartness. Kind of bland. Not a whole lot of flavor or smell.

I’m surprised at the low rating of this beer. Maybe I’m playing favorites since its a Calgary brew. I think it looks great. Clean and clear straw colour with medium head. Usually served with a slice of lemon (throw that away). Obviously a wheaty flavour. Refreshing summer time beer served cold for me.

Light gold with little head and not much aroma. Good wheaty and yeasty taste, goes down wonderfully easily, although the wheat taste isn’t that strong. Think of it as a pale wheat ale.

bottle: An old stand by for the summer or I want a light beer to drink with flavour. Not as good as Erdinger or Blue Moon (without the cheap Molson malts) but superior to Hoegaarden by far. Not alot to talk about here: thin puffy white head diminishing quicly, with golden colour. Right away you can tast high quality, sweetish malts which also come through on the finish. Some spicy notes but nothing crazy. This is a high average wheat ale, dont’ turn one down, especially on tap.

Grasshöpper? A special wheat beer. A bit sour, goes good with the spiciness, orange, coriander.

Nice, easy drinking wheat ale.
