Commercial Description:
There is a first time for everything, and this is our first attemt at this great summer beer. Emmett's American Wheat is a lively brew, packed with subtle flavors of orange blossom honey, a touch of fresh baked bread, and delicate herbal hops. Wheat malt makes up a good percentage of this recipe, and adsa refreshing tartness to the finish. I can see myself sitting in the beer garden sipping on of these while wondering why we waited so long to brew this beer. Better late than never!

A light american wheat. Typical pale straw color, light hints of clove and banana, but subdued and watery.

Pour is clear golden yellow with a thin white head...lightly sweet grainy aroma...lightly spiced and wheaty, but an overpowering malty grainy flavor dominated this...

This draft brew from the brew pub poured a small sized head of foamy fine to medium sized white colored bubbles that were fully diminished and left behind a softly carbonated straw yellow colored body and a poor lacing. The mild aroma was malty and wheat. The crisp and clean mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish with a thickening in the aftertaste. The mild flavor contained notes of malt med hops wheat and was mildly astringent. A decent one but not one that I would consider buying again.

(Tap) Pours a yellow color with a light haze. Aroma of light grains. Taste is similar, with some citrus and a light body. Ehhh, not too much going on with this one. Clearly a brew to satisfy the masses.

Had this one on draught at the ale house in Oswego, Illinois. Glowing, clear yellow poour with a thin, bubby white head, very slightly sweet and grassy nose, a dry hoppiness and not much else. Fairly unimpressive.
