Commercial Description:
This is Dan’s bold creation. You hold the international marriage of a sophisticated Bavarian Hefeweiss and an assertive American Pale Ale. Amarillo dry hopping drives Wisconsin Red Wheat. Traditional open top fermentation cultivates our proprietary Bavarian Weiss yeast in our own Wheat Beer Cellars. Absolutely 100% natural bottle conditioned. This is a living beer. Expect to pour a thick creamy head into your glass. Savor the fierce onslaught of clove, cinnamon, and citrus nose. Our very popular Imperial Weizen ratchets down for the session. Drink to adventure and friends in Wisconsin. We are the state of beer.

Thanks to Bockeyhorsey via rustychiles. Aroma is of heavy wheat and hops. As it warms, it smells quite saison-ish. Taste is far less hoppy than expected from the aroma. Supremely balanced. I kind of wished they had used a Belgian yeast for a bit more complexity, but this is a very easy drinking beer that I’d take most any day of the week. Very nice.

Dan knows wheat beers. This one is refreshingly un-stylish. A marriage of yeasty funk and American hop tang that is brash but pleasing.
