Commercial Description:
Pale and refreshingly tart.Telegraph Golden Wheat is a complex ale that embodies the best of traditional,unfiltered wheat beers.With aromas of fresh citrus and delicate spices,this beer should be savored with lighter fare such as seafood or grilled chicken.And skip the slice of lemon...this is a wheat ale with a flavor that stands up on its own!

From a 22 oz corked and caged bottle this poured a lemonade yellow with a big white head and light lacing. Nose of lemon. Fizzy mouthfeel. Flavor is quite tart with and the finish is somewhat bitter. Not a very easy beer to drink, but not a drain pour either.

Courtesy of sebletitje. Pours gold with a moment of a white head. The aroma is a bit bubbly tart notes, some banana and wheat. The taste explodes with carbonation making for a thin mouth feel. I get tart apricot, some wheat and a bit of harshness from the carbonation. It ends with lingering wheat and dryness.

Brass colored brew with another massive ivory head and tremendous carbonation bubbling up from the bottom of the glass. Lots of lemony citrus in this one...grassy as well. Fairly thin and uneventful.

Poured yellow. Fizzy as hell. Nose is citrus, bread and some tartness. Flavor is overwhelmed by way too much carbonation. I think this bottle is infected.

(750ml bottle thanks to bu11zeye) Pours a clear yellow with huge 2 finger head. Holy crap this beer smells like creamed corn, lacing is just average. Taste is an off wheat flavor, but the finish is also wheaty and welcome.

Bottle. Poured a hazy light golden color with almost no head. Aroma is wheat, yeast, some citrus and clove. Funny, it doesn’t look carbonated but in fact is sooo over carbonated I could hardly swallow it. Medium bodied, crisp mouthfeel. Flavor is very saison like, spicy yeasty notes with hints of citrus and grass. Tastes mildly infected. Finishes dry.

750ml bottle. Nov 08’ date. pours golden, lightly hazy, white head that seemed to melt away before my eyes. aroma was funky and tart with notes of wheat. taste, wheat, lots of carbonation, hints of hops and spices for a light vinegary palate with a skunky tart finish. This is not what I had expected, especially after it was recommended to me.
