Commercial Description:
Malted wheat and the choicest American barley are combined with a blend of noble hops to create this light, fruity, refreshing beer. Brewed in the style of the American beer renaissance, Blue Star is unfiltered, the yeast adding a complex note to the flavor profile. It's especially good with a slice of lemon!

Fluffy head with a cloudy amber body. Nose is a touch astringent with wheat and citrusy hops. Flavor is of wheat and some lemon citrus. Grassy almost. Body is thin with a weak citrusy finish.

One problem with wheat beers is they rarely look or smell good. The other problem is they rarely taste good either. This is a prime example of that. I have most of this six-pack waiting in my fridge for me to give it away.

Murky and buff colored with no head. Soft and fruity wheat aroma with some spicy hops. Light and sweet on the tongue with some citrus and spiciness in the flavor. Finishes quick and watery but has a small amount of tingliness on the palate remaining. Clean and refreshing over all with the level of character you would expect from an American Wheat.

Pours a golden color with much cloudiness and a decent head that dissipates down to a film. You can see the yeast settling down to the bottom of the glass. Aroma is oranges and light malt. Flavor is citrus over bread. A slice of orange on a piece of wheat bread. Crisp and clean on the palate and light bodied. A good summer beer.

A hazy golden color witha white head and difinite sediment. Light aroma of citrus and malt. The flavor is crisp and light with a nice, clean finish. A standard American wheat, good for a hot day, but not a standout.

This American Wheat seems a little close in style to a Heffe - looks unfiltered, smells really good - more herbal clove than banana, but still, it has a nice intense araoma. Medium head, really nice lace sliding down the sides of the glass. Taste is good - a zip-zang of wheat tang, herbal finish, the only thing not so great is the sugary sweet center that is there from begining to lingering end. Serve this at your next cookout - people will be happy with it.

Wheaty, grassy aroma with a little yeast. Foamy mouthfeel pairs with the wheat and slightly yeasty flavors. Good summer pounder.
