Commercial Description:
This true American-style unfiltered wheat has something a little special – the nectar of the great Salmiana Agave. Agave complements the refreshingly light quality of our wheat and adds a subtle note of flavor that expands this beer’s uplifting taste profile. It is familiar, yet creative.

From a bottle poured a hazy amber color with a fair amount of head. Nice sweat flavor cirusy with a quick finish.

Good, but different. You can definitely tell that there is something different going on. A little zing at the end, but not so much that it ruins what is otherwise a decent beer. A nice alternative.

(bottle): Pours a cloudy pale orange-yellow.body. Some white head but quickly gone. Sweet aroma, some hops, some hay? Some bitterness. Nutty taste, sweet. Almost a slick mouthfeel. Some fizziness. Almost a vegetably taste or something. Some fruit souness. Blah.

Bottle.
Quick, alert the police! Someone stole the agave from every bottle in the six-pack I bought! The perp left a beer that pours like mustard-yellow sewer water with a skunky aroma of sour rotten vegetables and refuse water. Surely the missing agave would compensate for the mild lemon-tinged hops and watery mouthfeel this brew has without it.

Poured from the bottle into a pint glass. Pour produced a hazy, light golden body, topped by a quickly diminishing small head of white foam. Aroma is citrus with light notes of wheat. Light to medium bodied with a tart edge that quickly fades. Palate is strongly citrus with a dull aftertaste on the sides of the tongue.

Cloudy lemon yellow in color. The head is reminiscent of foamy egg whites. Nice citrus tang on the palate with an interesting cardboard aroma as a juxtaposition. Overall, an slightly above average wheat but nothing that knocked my socks off.

On tap at the Denver location, cloudy white blonde hue, with a small white head, yeasty, gingerbread nose, with a hint of honeyed wheaty, pale malt, with a mild citrusy aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with yeasty, fruity, light zestiness character, with some honeyed wheat malts, with a lime, peachy, accent, seems to be the agave, a hint of spiciness, leading towards a faint fuity lime, lingering hop bitterness finish.

Bottle from Dad. Light foggy gold, white head. Aroma is wheat, light citrus, lime like not- No agave showing. Taste is wheat, light citrus, faint agave which adds an accent but not enough for me to put it in the name. It’s not bad, but nothing I would want when it’s cold outside.
