Breckenridge Agave Wheat

Brewed by Breckenridge Brewery
Style: Wheat Ale
Denver, Colorado USA

Drinkable, so in some sense it’s better than the other beers in this scoring range for me. But very little head for a wheat beer, low aroma, watery flavor and no catch of the agave nectar make this a low scorer. I did have some agave nectar at the house so I just poured some in myself. At least I get the "subtle note" that way, eh.

12oz bottle served directly out of the fridge in a shaker glass. Crisp wheat and mildly earthy aroma, maybe a little citrus. Pours goldish yellow with a one fingered white head, active carbonation, and evident bottle conditioning. The taste is crisp wheat and an unfamiliar flavor that is both fruity & earthy, a bit of tartness as well as lemony citrus. There is also a slickness about the beer that is unique but not off putting. An interesting American wheat with a little extra something. Would be nice on the back porch on a hot day.

Pours a golden color (unfiltered). Tastes like a regular wheat, with a slight citrus

I’d say that the agave is mostly in name only. I had a mix six pack that I had randomly and I didn’t even note any other tastes except the wheat, yeast, malt, etc. Overall, it wasn’t that bad. Very clean. Light notes of citrus with some grain flavors.

Pours a darker golden color with a white head. Aroma is of wheat, grain, and a little lemon. Flavor is kind of lacking. Not much carbonation either. What flavor there is is mostly grains and wheat. Not really much else to say about this.

Bottle pours a hazy straw color with a small head. The aroma is wheaty, clove, and bready. The flavor is like a creamy wheat with sour dough bread. Overall, OK.

golden murky pour with no head. slight sour notes alongside of some yeast. decent mouthfeel and a pretty decent taste. the agave really pulls this one together.

In the bottle from Beertopia. This is much ado about nothing. The wheaty flavor couches a bit of lemon citrus and lime flavors, but this could have been so much more had they used more agave. Just not daring enough. I’ll pass.
