Draft at the Drafting Room. Gold color with aroma of hopcit and slight fruit. Tastes as it smells, with decent complexity. Nothing great, but not bad.

The first wheat beer I ever had. Okay, but not compared to the local brewers’ wheats, or most other wheats I’ve tried.

From old tasting notes back when this one was fresh. I drank alot of the honey raspberry and peaches & cream beers from this company but this one never worked for me. Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a medium golden color with a large white head. The aroma was sour, tangy and industrial. The flavor was tangy and sour with no real wheat presence. The body was fairly thin. There was nothing in this beer to set it up as a wheat beer - just a crappy industrial style ale.

Color is a pale yellow with a big fluffy head, lots of bubbles. Smells of citrusy sweet malt and very light. Taste is along the lines of most wheat beers I've had, sweet and tangy and fairly light, very drinkalbe.

A fiar hefe, with a smooth, citrusy mouth feel, backed up by malty sweetness, mildly floral hops, and an alchohol warmth.

Bottle. I have a case of homebrews in 22 oz. Sweetwater Wheat bottles. Plae yellow, with a large aggressive head that faded quickly. Not much aroma. Decent flavor with fruit, lemon, clove and yeast. Thin finish.

this was my first wheat beer too. i am forever grateful to that daytona beach bartender who suggested it...opened up a whole new flavor-filled beerworld for me. (wheat/whites) i’ve certainly moved on since then, but i would buy this again if i could find it. it’s not spectacular, but it’s good. and, of course, i have that whole sentimental thing going on...my first...<G>
