Commercial Description:
An invigorating wheat beer with a hint of rye and the tang and hue of hibiscus, this refreshing brew is as cool as the breeze that blows down from Mount Mitchell to Cattail Peak. Enjoy this delicious creation when the hottest summer day demands the best of the Blue Ridge.

Also known as Organic Cattail Peak Wheat Beer.

small fizzy white (quickly and almost fully dissapating) head into murky orange body with some lacing present. aromas of light grass, some citrus and some spices. flavor is initially bittersweet but finishes more bitter decently long finish duration. above average carbonation. watery texture. okay wheat.

Bottle courtesy of bmartin08. Pours a Hefe hazy yellow with one finger head. Nose is light citrus, wheat and yeast. Taste is lemon zest, yeast bread and sweet wheat. Lighter mouth feel. Not a huge fan of wheat beers, but this was refreshing after a hot night walking the dog in the AZ heat. Thanks Brian!

12oz bottle. Hazy straw orange color. Lightly musty wheat aroma. Flavor has light wheat with some grass and spice like hops. Not anything that particularly stands out in this one. Medium body, carbonation and mouth feel seem ok for the style. Boring really.

Bottle from the obama loving Ross. Pours a hazy golden amber with a weak dissipating white head. Aroma of wheat malt and fruity esters. Light bodied with a prickly carbonation. Flavor of pale wheat malts and clove, with little sweetness to balance it out. Finish is astringent and moderately bitter, with some faint yeastiness.

Trade from Ross, thanks man. Pours a nice cloudy yellow color and thin white head. Aroma is of wheat, spice, light notes of bread and fruit. Taste is much the same. Moderate carbonation with a tangy quenching finish. Not bad.

12ooz bottle. Hazy golden yellow, white head. Lots of carbonation. Foam is long lasting, good lacing. Nice aroma of a clean wheat ale. Scents of bread and spice. Flavor is a light bread, some citrus. very clean and thirst-quenching. a bit too simple but still very tasty.
