Crabtree Twisted Creek Wheat

Twisted Creek pours a traditional cloudy dark yellow and had a decent sized white head on it. The head leaves a nice small lacing on the side of the glass. It has the distinct wheat aroma, somewhat funky and with a mild citrus overtone. The taste is very smooth. I can see why folks at the Fort Collins beer fest liked this. Goes down easy on a hot day. It has a slightly sweet taste and had a mild carbonation to the mouth feel. I’m not much of a big wheat beer drinker, but this one struck me as something I could get used to. The aroma seemed to change a bit as it warmed. From funky to slightly lemony. I enjoyed every drop of it. The taste is better than the smell but still worthy of your consideration.

bottle. golden/orange pour with thin head. aroma of wheat, yeast, banana and clove. flavor is mild and refreshing. sweet lemon, banana, light yeast and spice. fresh clean wheat. very enjoyable.

12 oz bottle. Pours a hazy golden amber with a creamy white head that retains and laces the glass.

The aroma is traditional hefe - yeasty bananas and cloves with some wheaty malts.

The flavor is sweet and spiced bananas with some yeast funk leading to a light hop finish. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with some sharp carbonation.

Overall, a decent hefe (not my favorite style). It is pretty similar to the Haystack by Lefthand, but a tad more adventurous.

This has a good German-style aroma and is very cloudy yellow orange. The flavor is neally nice too, not icky or funky, almost with some faint heaviness to it. It finishes a little poorly, but I was much impressed after the bad brown.
