dmac (1418), Toms River, New Jersey, USA Oct 25, 2009 12 oz bottle from soonah. Poured a hazy bright yellow with a large fluffy bright white head. Aroma is grainy with some weak wheat notes. Nice medium to fuller mouthfeel and with average carbonation. Flavor is slightly acidic with some wet cereal notes and not much else going on. Gregis (1132), Shawnee, Kansas, USA Oct 24, 2009 Pours a cloudy golden straw with a small white head that falls fairly quickly. The nose is a dusty wheat, candy sugar and a faint citrus supporting note. It is fairly light-bodied, but it feels fuller due to assertive carbonation. The finish is dry with a bit of a mineral quality I rarely get from wheat beers. The flavor follows the nose with a lightly spicy/peppery yeast note added to the mix. This is a decent wheat that is not the "same old same old". That alone makes it worth trying. kuphish (150), Bloomington, Indiana, USA Oct 24, 2009 Bottle. Pours a big, frothy white head. Diminishing. Hazy, golden body with yeast clouds. Grainy, dusty, somewhat doughy nose. Wheat, light citrus notes, some cookie dough, metal and a lingering tanginess. Light body, fizzy carbonation, slightly chalky palate. Overall a fairly boring rendition of an American Wheat. Lawsonciv (10), Norman, Oklahoma, USA Oct 11, 2009 Murky orange color. Sediment throughout. Lemon and honey smell. Tart citrus and lemon taste. Bitter finish. A decent beer at best. Ughsmash (3978), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA Sep 26, 2009 Bottled. Poured near-clear medium golden with a moderate cap of white head.. some lacing stuck around. The aroma picked up tart lemongrass and wheat over a soft pale malt and honey base.. quite pleasant. The flavor opened with tart lemon zest and grainy wheat, with honey and bread settling at the core.. bitterness was mild and earthy.. lemon continued through the finish.. some sticky/tacky malts at the back that didn’t really help. Light-bodied and well-carbonated on the palate.. simple, but for the most part tangy, refreshing, and enjoyable. Fratto (662), Arlington, Texas, USA Sep 19, 2009 Bought because 1919 is when Kappa Kappa Psi was founded. Smells terrible with a strange mustiness. Tastes about the same. esjaygee (1467), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA Sep 18, 2009 Golden yellow with a medium off-white head. Aroma of fruit, yeast, dough and mild citrus. Taste of wheat, yeast, spent grain and mild citrus. Effervescent with a thin mouth feel, while the citrus adds a nice touch it’s just another sub par wheat beer on the market. DJMonarch (5966), Northwich, Cheshire, England Aug 26, 2009 From the Jug at the GABF Colorado Convention Center, Denver 11/10/2008
Fruit aroma. Light golden coloured and hazy in appearance. A little citrus flavour in a crisp and creamy finish.
