Fort Collins Major Toms Pomegranate Wheat

Brewed by Fort Collins Brewery
Style: Fruit Beer
Fort Collins, Colorado USA

clear gold under a large white head. not much fruit in aroma. flavor is pretty boring also. just not getting anything from this. slight fruity sweetness.

I am having a hard time smelling any type of fruit in the aroma. Slight sweet aroma becomes noticeable as the beer warms up. I don’t know what is going on with this beer, but I taste hardly any fruit. There is a slight sweet fruit flavor, but everything seems muted to me. This is the second pile I have had from Fort Colilns. This one is just like Amber Ale I had i.e. very bland. Clear beer with nothing to offer if you ask me.

Thin white head which dissipates quickly. Fruity aroma with some pear, light spices, some wheat and a bit of dusty malts. Color is a dark gold. Bitter flavor with an underlying sweetness. Some fruit flavors in there with a bit of spicy hops. Not a very good melding of flavors. All over the place and not very good. Finishes sweet and oily. Not recommended.

I had to have had a bad batch. First off, the carbonation was insane--it took me better than 20 minutes to be able to pour the whole thing as I was getting nothing but foam coming out of the bottle. The aroma was mild, with some sweet and citrus notes. But that’s where the fun ended. The "sweet-tart" flavor mentioned in the description never appeared, just a nasty sour/bitter lemon flavor, like lemon zest gone bad. If any wheat or pomegranate flavor was there, it was overpowered by this bitterness. I’m really, really hoping that I just got a bad or infected bottle and that they’re not actually trying to market this stuff. I’d be willing to give another bottle a try, but this one was an absolute drainpour.

Bottle. Aroma is fruit and sweet malts. Flavor is very sweet and wheat. Not a very good beer, girlfriend got this one. She loved it, I’ll pass

Will the travesty never end? Fruit wheat beers.......ugh. If you’ve had one, you’ve had them all. Overly sweet, unbalanced, more like drinking Smirnoff Ice, or a wine cooler, instead of a beer.

Pours a light clear amber with a very thin head. Aroma is malts. Flavor is very thin and mostly malts. Not horrible.

Bottle, light copper color. Aroma slightly wheaty. Some bitterness and tart from pomegranate in the aftertaste. Little wheat taste throughout. Can not get too excited about this would be good when it is hot.
