Bottle sampled with stegosaurus. Pours a hazy golden color with a decent white head. Aroma of leamon, spices and a hint of wheat. Flavor of citrus, yeast and sweet malt. Light and refreshing

Hazy yellow with a medium head. Good lacing. Aroma is subtle, with lemon and wheat. Taste more spices; like coriander and pepper. Hard candy-like sweetness. Crisp and dry finish.

quite a bit of flavor here, smelled of spring - some flowers and fruit, taste is grainy with hints of the abovementioned. not a bad white, not the best.

Draught. Clear golden-straw body and pure white head. Aromas of sweet pear and honeycomb. Flavor is significantly sweet with honeybutter and corn qualities. Badly underattenuated. For me personally, this tarnishes the reputation of Great Lakes a bit. They could do much better here.

Let me say this: Great Lakes is a fine brewery, and offers awesome products. This is not one of their best. I have also had it from the tap, and it tasted better. If you are into this style, and by that I mean, the whole correinder thing, go for it. If not, you probably won’t be a big fan, because that spice dominates. Not a bad brew once a year when you’re feeling it.

There’s just nothing special happening with this wheat beer. For example, this beer has the traditional citrus and yeastiness I expected but that’s the extent of its appeal. It does nothing to separate itself from other beers in its genre. I expected more from great lakes as I enjoy most of their other brews

Tap @ Capone’s. Pours a hazy & pale golden color with a decent sized off-white head. Aroma is citrus, wheat and coriander. Flavor is much the same - good citrus presence, with a dash of coriander and yeast.

On tap at Capone’s during the Great Lakes tasting. Pours a cloudy golden yellow with an average off white creamy lacing head. Aroma had lots of orange, corriander, wheat and overall just a very solid Witbeir aroma. Flavor of candy sweetness, orange, tart wheat and hops.
