Commercial Description:
“a galaxy of taste in every bottle” It is through the movement of the universe that life presents itself in transformation. It is in this spirit that we make ÜberSun, a tribute to the dynamic energy of summer. The alignment of wheat and barley through this hop-infused brew embodies the solar system itself... This may be a difficult task, but one our brewers revel in! They brew a galaxy of taste into every batch. ÜberSun is the ultimate experience that will challenge you with each sip. ÜberSun Imperial Summer Wheat Beer takes off where our Hop Sun finishes. Like it’s little brother, ÜberSun is clean and full of flavor, but don’t pull an Icarus– this is one big beer! Pour a glass or drink straight from the bottle, it’s meant to be consumed wisely with friends between summer solstice and autumnal equniox. 8.0% abv • 5ºL •

I don’t know what exactly an Imperial Summer Wheat is...but it was interesting. It didn’t taste much like a wheat, and it had a hell of a hop aroma that didn’t quit fit what I thought the beer would be like. Some nice citrus in there, and it seemed a little thicker than a wheat also. Pretty solid beer though, and incredibly easy to drink for a 8% beer.

Pours a somewhat clear color with with a big white head. Aroma is a bit grassy with a nice aroma of fresh hops. Flavor is really smooth, sweet and fruity with a nice hop bitter finish. Reminds me of a souped up gumballhead

22oz Bomber. Pours a cloudy straw gold with a thick white head. Malty caramel and bog citrus hop aroma. Big wheaty malt taste with a touch of some bitter hops. Sneaky strong and tasty.

Clear pale golden color, small white head. Floral and grassy hoppy scent. Bitter hoppy taste, some citrus and green apples. Lingering afterbitterness. Medium to moussy mouthfeel, high bitterness.

Bottled at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Clear pale golden, minimal head. Fruity nose with some vague vegetables. Sweet and amazingly thin for an 8% beer. Metal is the predominant feature, though citric hops tries in vain to cover it. It’s edgy and aggresive with no thirst quenching qualities whatsoever. As there are also near no flavour to savour, beside sweaty lightly orange hops. An imperially boring beer.
