AllAboutStout (479), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA Sep 7, 2008 Pours a murky gold in color. Decent head on the pour, but it’s gone before I can sit down. Smell is wheat, lemon zest and citrus. Taste is much the same, with more of the citrus coming through. Decent mouthfeel. An easy drinker on a hot summer day. Nothing special, but by no means offensive either. jjpm74 (2953), Connecticut, USA Sep 6, 2008 Bottle courtesy of daknole. Pours amber with a nice white head. Smells of bananas, citrus, coriander, spicy. Tastes of coriander, wheat, some citrus, touches of bananas. Nice summer sipper. changeup45 (567), Orlando, Florida, USA Aug 10, 2008 Hazy golden color, thick initial fluffy white head with some retention. Aroma is malty and wheaty with hints of citrus and yeast. Flavors are yeast, banana, as well as some spices. This is a bit basic but very refreshing and pretty good on a hot Florida day. It was better than I thought it would be. Brigadier (887), Chagrin Falls, Ohio, USA Aug 7, 2008 12 oz bottle
Thakns to daknole for sending a large variety of fruity wheat beers. This one wasn’t bad but simply average at best. My expectations are never very high with releases like this. Even so the Southernmost Wheat struggled to meet them.
Aroma / Appearance - The cloudy orange body appeared to be going for the Belgian angle. Unfortunately the aroma fell short - orange degreaser, white pepper and key lime pie were not sufficient to give it a decent punch. The only reason it gets above average is that it was a dense combination.
Flavor / Palate - The lime aspect dominated the pepper. Even so it was weak after two seconds time. Orange, cloves and wheat melded in a warm aftertaste. Overall this was an average somewhat safe play. Hopefully the other releases from Florida Beer are better. If not I will opt to pass on them whenever I see them in the future. greenleaf (89), Florida, USA Aug 2, 2008 bottle 12 oz. Pours a very hazy yellow with a large whiteish head. Nose is for sure lemon and malt. Taste is wheat, lime, and spice. Palate is somewhat flat.
