hopdog (4648), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 26, 2008 On tap at the Milwaukee Location. Listed as the ’Ale House Wheat’. Poured a medium golden color with a smaller sized white head. Aromas of cloves, wheat, and bananas. Tastes follow suit with some citrus. JPDIPSO (4286), Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, USA Sep 22, 2006 Updated: Aug 20, 2007Original Score 6,3,3,2,12 - 2.9. Dark golden to amber color. Closer to a ur-weisse appearance. Smaller off white head. Aromas of wheat, almond extract, ala blue moon ice cream, light clover honey and a light citric zing. Not a real appealing balanced aroma. Flavors of malt-o-meal with cream and light honey. Ok, another american wheat that I just don’t get. Something is lost with out the "right" yeast to bring out spices and help develop full malt and wheat flavors. I’ll keep trying they though. 8/2/07 Re-rate. Draft @ Wisconsin State Fair. Either they changed the recipe or the other sample was bad. This seemed to be a different beer. A much hoppier versin, with hints of citric fruit. Much like a mellow/light Gumballhead. MIBRomeo (1889), Wisconsin, USA Jun 6, 2006 Golden color w/ light orange hughes a small thick white head w/ good lacing. Very light aroma of wheat and light lemon zest & a touch of honey. Average palate some coating. Flavor has a light sweet honey touch a bit of grain & a light lemon zest dry finish. Pretty good, highly drinkable wheat. StewardofGondor (1934), Washington Heights - Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Jun 6, 2006 Transparent and pale bronze in color with a white eyelash smear shaped the head. Confined aroma hints at Spotted Cow imitation. A touch of vanilla cream over muted, harvested wheat. Angel food cake with a middle-of-the-road buttercream smell to it, along with vanilla tootsie rolls and a touch of cream cheese danishes. Experimental lemon-accented Wonderbread nearly sears the daylight out of the flavor but weaves its way out of it and sets a new course for government bread loafs. Reductionary carbonation concoction leaves a flattened, depleted Harmony cereal flavor, pulling out crushed vanilla, almonds and bran with a touch of hazelnut creamer substituting for the milk’s portion. Dare I say that this one caught the milkier side of the cow but failed to harvest any of the surrounding wheat habitat? Slight acidic bite keels at the flavor’s underbelly, finishing with some unrefined oats, granular white cornmeal and over-represented pale base malt. 1FastSTi (2402), Glendale, Wisconsin, USA Jun 3, 2006 Pours to a hazy pine colored body with a thin white head. The aroma is buttered wheat bread. The flavor is wheaty, creamy, light sweet corn, buttered bread, light grass hops and spice. The palate is creamy, well-textured, medium-bodied.
