Highland Cattail Peak Wheat

12 oz bottle pours a clear yellow with a thin hazy white head. Citrus lemon touch of wheat in the nose. Not grassy or grainy light and decent. Clean citrus wheat flavors that have a citrus bitterness in the finish that is a touch grassy. Goes down easy though. This might be decent fresh, then again that citrus might be more overbearing for this beer.

12 ounce bottle from Whole Foods Market, Chapel Hill, NC. Pours a pale hazy yellow color with a thin head. Fair head retention and lacing. Aroma is spicy, peppery bread with a bit of caramel. A bit of tea and floral notes as well. Taste is bread, yeast, pepper, citrus, particularly lime, caramel. Thin-medium bodied.

Bottled. Poured crystal-clear bright golden with a short-lived cap of white head. The aroma picked up sweet honey and pale malts supporting toasty overripe bananas, tart wheat, and some floral character.. fairly well presented. The flavor was quite tangy throughout with a combination of wheat, lemon, and bitter floral character present.. honey and sourdough bread at the core.. finished a touch sour and refreshing. Light-bodied and tart as mentioned on the palate.. I found this to be tasty and refreshing.

Yellow color at pour, medium sized white head. Hints of citrus in the aroma and flavor, it also has some metallic hints which was unexpected. I was thinking this was going to be a microbrew version of Blue Moon but was kind of disappointed.

I guess I’m not a fan of summer beers in general, but this one is a rare blunder by Highland. No nose to speak of, very watery with only a hint of light malts and hops. I would have rather had a water than this.

"Organic" bottle. Pale straw with big bubbles and a few seconds of foam. Aroma: 80% skunky, 20% sourdough. White bread flavor has nuances of peppery clove, banana, and chewable vitamin. Lingering grassy-bitter aftertaste. Although light, the mouthfeel has a milky heft and sandpapery texture. Not bad, but uninspiring and a little too sulfury and phenolic.

12oz bottle–pours a dissipating white head and hazy yellow color. Aroma is spice hops, wheat, clove. Taste is dry spice hops-slight, wheat, clove, and slight banana, metallic. Thanks to decaturstevo for sharing this.

Draft. Organic. This beer was much more clear than I expected seeing as how it’s billed as a wheat beer. The aroma has hints of citrus. The flavor was unremarkable. I honestly thought that the waitress brought me the wrong beer until I ordered another and watched the bartender pull it..
