Birdiebeagle (777), Perkasie, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 12, 2009 Bottle Pours a cloudy orange gold with a deminishing thin white head. For as small as the head was laces fairly well. Has a strong grain aroma with some wheat. Has a decent carbonation. The flavor is very grainy with some wheaty sweetness. Has a light body. The texture is watery. Has a weak finish and a mild aftertaste. Not awful but not great. Most likely the last one of these I drink. andyhwcinc (33), Illinois, USA Oct 4, 2009 I had this at the Riverside Theater in Milwaukee after drinking a large sampler of beers from the Water Street Brewery. This was pretty good, standard wheat ale that went down smooth with a good head. Would have again, maybe in a more sobering situation. ekstedt (2411), Göteborg, Sweden Sep 20, 2009 From a bottle at SB&WF 2009. Cloudy golden, small white head. Bleak melon aroma with some soicy notes. Light to medium bodied, medium carbonation. Dry finish. Very bland. Skyview (4007), Papoose Jct., Minnesota, USA Aug 28, 2009 On draught during the Great Taste of Midwest 2009 in Madison, Wisconsin. Pours a hazy golden pale colored brew with an average sized white head that slowly dissipates. Aroma of golden grain malt with wheat, some sweet banana esters, a hint of orange zest and bread dough. Taste is medium bodied, plenty of carbonation with flavors of golden grain malt, some bubblegum, banana, a hint of clove and a touch of citrus. Finish is semi-sweet, with a nice balanced yeast and grain aftertaste that slowly disappears. mcjay (301), Neenah, Wisconsin, USA Aug 20, 2009 Cloudy golden orange color with a thin white head. Aroma of wheat and citrus. Taste is sweet and a little bit tart with wheat, yeast and a hint of orange. An average wheat ale. rhinobrau (17), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Jul 31, 2009 Another bland American wheat beer. Drinkable, but not something that I’d go out of my way for. Rciesla (3500), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA Jul 24, 2009 Bottle. Pours a golden body with a white head. Apple, light spices, banana notes, wheat and a hint of bread and bubblegum. Sweet creamy, good. Ughsmash (3978), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA Jun 25, 2009 Bottled. Poured hazy medium golden with a lovely initial cap of white head (didn’t stick around for too long, but I’m rating 1st impression). The aroma picked up toasted, candied banana and bubblegum over soft doughy and honey character.. quite sweet, but well-presented. The flavor found honey, cereal, and sweet bananas at the core with light spices and tanginess from the wheat around.. short, quite sweet finish. Lighter-bodied, sweet, and.. well.. creamy on the palate.. lacked some expected wheat character, and John’s talk of "wheat cream ale" seems about right to me. Decent stuff.
