Let me start by saying that I am judging this beer against the style. I’m not a huge wheat beer fan, but TroutSlayer is delicious. It was pretty clear for a wheat, was yellow in color and the head was composed of big bubbles. The aroma is what got me. It had a citrus aroma and some herbal smell that I couldn’t quite put my finger on. The taste was similar to the aroma, with more of a citrusy character. It was too easy to drink. After this and Moose Drool, I’m becoming a big fan of big Sky.

Bottle from beeronthewall. PAle medium gold with 2-fingers of off-white head. Aroma is pale malt, apricotty fruit, some honey, hops, and citrus. Tastes crisp, with pale malty honey notes and a hopcitric body. I enjoyed this one.

12 bottle: VERY UNDERRATED BEER. first this beer should be called an IPA. aroma is not very strong but from what is there i smell hops. appearance in glass is very light color with a nice head. flavor was that of a IPA but one one that doesnt have a whole lot of hops but should be an IPA. overall is beer is way underrated i 1st tried this beer not looking for a whole lot but this is a pretty good beer just think is should be listed as an IPA.

Bottle from cbkschubert. Pours a clear light gold color with small thick head. Aroma of malt and hops. The taste was of light maly with good hop bitterness. Easy smooth drinking beer. Not bad at all.

Pours light amber, a bit cloudy. Head fairly long lasting and medium sized. The aroma is faintly sweet like a far whiff of new mown hay, fresh, with no off notes. Flavor is a pleasant mix of hops and slightly sweet malt. Palate is more full than expected. A good all-around brew worth ordering again. asantly
