Northwoods White Weasel Ale

Appearance: Pours a thin, clear yellow body with a small white head. Smell: Lactic, soured wheat aroma. Ugh, everything’s all messed up! Taste: Good grief. Extremely lactic taste overall, a hint of adjuncts here and there, but it’s simply unfinishable. Lord knows I tried! Mouthfeel: Light-bodied. Mild carbonation. Drinkability: "White weasel" has since become sort of a colloquial saying around these parts.

Pours a transparent pale golden with a thin, spotty-lacing white head. Aroma of grainy adjuncts, sauerkraut and tart infectious bacteria. Starts thin, watery, sour and a pretty much drainpour. Tastes like everything else I’ve had from them.

Picked up a single 12-oz bottle from the brewpub. Pours a very light blonde pale brew with no head. Only a few bubbles on edge of glass. Aroma of multi-grain, steamed rice, with some flowery hops. Taste is highly carbonated, watered down orange peel, some corn flake character and light sweet flowery finish. Palate is too clean and very watered down.

Pours golden yellow with thin white head. Aroma of corn and grains. Flavor is more of the same, but adds some faint sugar and hops.

clear yellow tiny white head. Dry barley and corn bland smell. average palate. Flavor is corn and barley some sweet sugars.. very bud like.

Hazy Yellow Coloring with White Ring. Faint Wheat Aroma. Wheat, Lemon Notes on the Tongue...Faint Hops as Well. Very Drinkable. Agreeably Not a Cream as Much as an American Wheat Style Brew. Actually one of Their Tastier / Non-Offending Brews, if Not the Best So Far.

Yellow color with a thin head. A little wheat for the aroma. The taste is a passable rendition of a wheat with some citrus as well. Disturbingly enough, not a bad little beer. Oh... it’s a cream ale? Um, no... but it’s drinkable.
