Funknmilla (577), Phoenixville, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 13, 2007 Cloudy orange..light beige head...aroma is malty mixed with hops...you can smell the creaminess and bananas...and well the palate is creamy as well...mild malts and hops balanced well and blanketed in a silky and creamy presentation...a bit of stick , left to the lips...lip smackin’ good...lingering flavor, bubbles in the mouth, almost like cotton mouth...most wheat beers don’t have this wonderful hop presence...nice job on individuality... 3 floyds , now get back in Jerzze!! lovemyipas (420), sw burbs, Illinois, USA Oct 8, 2007 pours yellow with a one finger bubbly white head. aroma is mostly 3fs’ Amarillo hops, orange peel, and a touch of wheat and malt. has a medium body with descent lacing and carbonation. flavor is the same as aroma but a bit stronger. has some sediment floating around and a dry hop aftertaste. also has a touch of lemon at the end. as it warms the red wheat comes out a bit more aroma and flavor wise. kind of in between a pride and joy and alpha king with some wheat. acearl (207), J-Town, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 7, 2007 Bottle fermented comething almost blew up when uncapped...Hazy light yellow saffron hue with fizzy white lastine head, some lacing, lemon smell, light texture, not hoppy at all, a bit watery, hint of lemon citrus and light wheat, light, not very complex but very refreshing especially on a hot day. Good packaging too. joverton85 (80), Burnsville, Minnesota, USA Oct 7, 2007 hazy golden with good frothy head. not crazy about amarillo hops usually but this was pretty flavorful with some sweet malt finish. good summer beer. biggmike (480), Hattiesburg, Mississippi, USA Oct 4, 2007 Hazy golden pour with tremendous white foamy head. Aroma is grapefruit and Amarillo hops. Flavor is very hoppy and citrusy. Mouthfeel is good and this is a very sessionable beer. This is one of the best wheat beers I’ve had. mistersinalin (367), St. Paul, Minnesota, USA Oct 2, 2007 Updated: Oct 17, 2007Maybe I got a spoiled one, but this didn’t have much oompf. It was thin with minimal flavor and no aroma. I love the alpha king, but this isn’t in the royal family. mtoast (290), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 25, 2007 On tap at FFF, 9/22/07. Hazy golden beer with nice white foam, very nice lacing. Big Amarillo hop nose, little bit of light maltiness in the aroma also. Very nice wheat malt flavor and great mouthfeel, tends to beat you up with the hops just a little too much. scoobysnak (249), Appleton, Wisconsin, USA Sep 21, 2007 Updated: Oct 24, 2007It is a very unconventional wheat beer. Banana flavors with a hopsy aftertaste, delicious. I’ll agree with a couple of the other raters, it taste more like a IPA than a wheat beer but that definately doesn’t detract from its deliciousness.
