Commercial Description:
Our Charleston Wheat is an American version of the Belgian styled White Beers. The style is enhanced by the addition of coriander seed and special spicy hops. Charleston Wheat is strikingly refreshing. Just like the original European Wheat beers the natural wheat malt is uniquely complimented with a wedge of citrus. We suggest a very small slice of Orange that enhances Charleston Wheat's natural fruity tang.

From notes 5/17/03: For a wheat beer, this sure does pour rather clear and not cloudy in the least bit. Pale straw yellow. White head fizzes away quickly to not even a trace. No film on top. No lacing. Aromas are somewhat grassy and just a touch yeasty. Slight nasty metallic smell too. Strange. The taste isn’t too "wheaty": no clove, no banana, and really not much of a yeast taste. A crisp grassiness with some of the same metallic feel as the aroma. Rather thin mouthfeel. Good on a summer’s day when it’s nice and cold. This may be a candidate for a frosty mug to kill off most of the flavor and just drink it. Won’t try it again.

Pours deep gold with medium white head. Aroma of slight hopcit, some wheat, some off musky hints. Tastes witish, with a somewhat watery palate and finish.

On draught at Palmetto Pub in the Charleston airport. Clear golden color with a thin white head and tiny trails of bubbles. Thin and spotty lacing. The aroma is lightly wheaty with a pinch of hops. Light-bodied and mildly carbonated with small amounts of wheat and citrus flavor. The finish is pretty bland. Decent, but nothing to write home about.

On tap at the brewery. Golden color with diminishing white head. The orange kick in the flavor makes this a very refreshing summer beer. Enjoyable.

Lemon grass dominates the flavor of this wheat. A little too light of a wheat beer for me.
