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

Light amber with a frothy white head that hangs around. Tart wheat smell with apples and herbs. Med bodied, smooth, and easy drinking. Sweet tart flavors of wheat malt and apple cider make for a refreshing brew here. 102906

A slightly cloudy light golden beer, with very little foam. The aroma smells strongly of sugar and lemon/lime. There’s basically no lacing on the glass. The flavor is very grassy and pert. Kinda reminds me of some kind of cleaner.

Goes down smooth with citrus aftertaste. Flavor not as strong as many wheat beers. Would work as a refreshing summer drink.

Bottle. Pours a murky yellow with no head. The aroma has a citrusy lemon smell with some wheatiness like lemongrass. A bit wheaty a tiny bit of citrus and not much else. A light and refreshing drink like water.

Golden almost clear with a thick head. Weak wheat smell that is not appealing. Lack of taste there is some wheat there but not much else. It is slightly crisp and refreshful though.
