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.

Pours a slightly hazy bright golden with a spotty-lacing white head. Aroma of lightly pale semi-sweet malts. Body starts with an average viscosity and mild pale malty sweetness with a touch of grain and light agave character. Finishes drier and more bitter, but overall, pretty bland.

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.
