Breckenridge Agave Wheat

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

Really hazy light orange in color. Head is bright white and totally diminishing. Aroma of light lemon, biscuity malts and a bit of orange zest. Mildly sour flavor with a soft malt sweetness. Finish is heavy in the sour, wet grains department. Interesting with the agave nectar, but the end result is simply an average wheat.

Pours a pale amber color with a dissapating head. Minimal lacing. Aroma of cereal and yeast and a subtle sharp tang of orange. Tastes like a typical wheat with fruit notes that fall between cantalope and apricot-I assume that’s the agave. Hints of honey. Finishes dry and sour and seems a little light bodied. It’s Ok but not something I’ll make a habit of.

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.

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.

Of all of the fruit infused wheat beers I’ve tried (i.e.: Purple Haze, Cherry Wheat), this is my favorite. Pours a slightly (but not completely) hazy orange/straw color with a small white head. Aroma is yeast, earth, and something extra... spice maybe. The flavor is pretty unique... yeast and spice from the wheat beer, but, what I guess is the agave flavor, is there too. Dry, tangy, and with a little bit of citrus. Bonus points for creativity and the sweet logo on the label. 12 oz. bottle.

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.

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

Cool looking bottle... pours light orange color with a small quickly dissipating head. There is something in the aroma is that agave? I don’t know. Has a wheat taste with also agave? Nor do I know what it tastes like. Heavy carbonation, not a bad beer and very drinkable but it leaves me to want to have a dark, thick and sweet beer or something with distinct characteristics.
