Commercial Description:
Select wheat joins with American Hops under the careful eye of the master brewer. The result is an entirely drinkable wheat beer, refreshing, rewarding and proper for any occasion. At your whim, add a thin sliver of lemon or not. Follow by quaffing your fill.

When we set about brewing our wheat beer, we strictly limited ourselves to one specific idea: to make an exceptionally drinkable wheat beer. Without the distractions of extravagant brewing techniques and exotic ingredients, the result is a truly honest American Hefeweizen appropriate for any occasion. Proper.

Very little aroma-light on the lemon and light on the wheat beer taste too. It’s drinkable but not at all impressive.

Paid $1.49 for a 12-oz single bottle. Pours cloudy yellow with no head. Smells lemony and grassy. Flavor... yuck, it’s awful. It’s got a tangy fake lemon flavor, a bit like unsweetened lemonade, and not much else. I can’t give this flavor or overall anything higher than a 1, because this is something I would never ever choose to injest into my body.

Almost no head. The body is hazy golden. Limited aromatics, almost no ester come from that dull yeastiness. Just limited flavors from start to finish, the wheat brings the only hint at excitent through its cracker nature, but lemon juice is not what were wishing for in a weizen. Light bodied, biting carbonation. Yawn.

09.30.05 Tap at brewpub. Light hazed gold. Not much wheatiness but nice tart grass and some citrus. Refreshing and light body is plenty effy.

Clear yellow, little to no head. Nose sweet, bit chemical. Flavor is at best nasty and at worst "I’m going to throw garbage at the brewery next time I’m in Colorado". Lots of sweetness, very grainy, vague banana and clove for a hint and wheatiness. Tastes like somebody mixed a crappy page lager with a so-so wheat. A really, really lousy beer.
