Commercial Description:
An American-style wheat ale brewed with 30% malted wheat and 2 row barley. Low hopping rates allow the refreshing aroma and citrus flavor of a late addition of lemon grass to dominate. This unfiltered beer retains all of its protein, flavor, and some of its yeast, resulting in a traditionally cloudy appearance. 2000 North American Brewers Asc. Gold Medal

Pours deep hazy brown, no head. Aroma, of wheat, lemongrass and yeast. Hints of malt. Flavor, malty presence, lemongrass, medium carbonation, sweet wheat palate, some hints of yeast. Wheat / malt more forward followed by lemon finish.

Hazy light amber with a white head. Nose is light spices with a hint of lemon. Light palate with a bland flavor light on the wheat and lemon. Hint of lemon in the aftertaste though.

Another loser from the mixed pack. Poor example of a wheat beer. Lack of flavor, character, and body. This might be the worst in the bunch

Pours clean translucent light amber until the slurry is poured, adds some haze. Profuse creamy white head. Nose is strange, definitely a clean yeast, some wheat character, no estery aspect. Mild sweetness, green apple skins, mild fruityness, bready. Flavor is bleh, very bland, some wheat character, grassy, mild sweetness. No carbonation on the palate, kind of slick.

POurs a hazy orange with a thin white head. Can’t get much nose. Some wheat and lemon. Flavor is crisp wheat, mild honey, and grain. Grassy.

Very good light wheat ale. There’s not a ton of flavor, but it also doesn’t have the bitterness that some heavier beers have.

12 oz bottle into a pint glass awhile back. A somewhat unique wheat brew with some big flavors, but they just don’t quite sit right.

From the Jug at the GABF Colorado Convention Center, Denver 10/10/2008 Some spice aroma. Golden coloured and hazy in appearance. Smooth on the palate with a little ginger spice flavour. Hint of dryness in a crisp and creamy finish.
