OFallon Unfiltered Wheat

Brewed by OFallon Brewery
Style: Wheat Ale
OFallon, Missouri USA

Barrel Draught from the jug at the GABF, Colorado Convention Center 30/09/2005 Golden coloured with a hazy appearance. Wheat aroma and flavour. Some dryness in a finish that is creamy on the palate.

Pear colored hazy body with a nice fat white head. Slightly skunked aroma wet leather nose with a light hint of the wheat. Balsa wood flavor plastic, and a burnt sweetness. Bitter in the finish that lingers. Strangely this isn’t as bad as my descriptions leads me to believe. It is drinkable, but just off in a weird way. Could be a bad bottle? I’ll try this again from a different store sometime if I can. Ap- 3 ar-3 tas-3 pal-2 ov-7

Pours a murky, clouded golden bronze with a frothy, thin-lacing white head. Aroma of lemony citrus and a touch of black pepper. Body starts with a mild doughy pale malty sweetness giving way to tart lemon citrus and a dry, muddled finish. An ok American wheat, but needs some more distinction, and perhaps a little less tartness.

A good wheat, for sure. Not a style I’m particularly crazy about, but this one is actually very nice. Pours the expected hazy light gold, rocky head and decent lacing. Aroma is quite yeasty, also some lemons, a very spritzy quality in the nose. Flavor is maltier than a lot of beers in the style, and the Kolsch yeast really blends well, better than wheats with ale yeasts. All in all, a very good example of the style that comes across as a bit "bigger" than others, but is quite refreshing and enjoyable.

Cloudy light peach color with a diminishing frothy off-white head. Light aroma. Scents of a lightly salty soft pretzel. Soft wheat flavors abound through the quaff. Soft and pleasant. A mild sweet wheat and barley flavor. A touch grainy at times. This has to one the better american wheat I have had.

Pour is a hazy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is hard to detect but i do get some vanilla and yeast. Flavor is very weak and dull. Nothing really going on here. Very watery with some notes of lemon and yeast but overall bland.

Cloudy, dull lemon hue with sinking yeasty chunks and a thick, foamy white head. Aroma of clove, bubble gum, mild citrus, and a note of alcohol. Flavor is of orange juice, mild banana esters, and lightly sweet wheat. Medium body with significant carbonation. A decent American-made hefeweizen in my book. Thanks Eric.

12oz bottle acquired in trade with TannerTavernboys (thanks!). Poured a medium and hazy golden color with a smaller sized white head. Aromas of yeast, wheat, lemons and light clove. Tastes of wheat, lemon with a touch of a honey sweetness. Creamy body.
