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

Murky yellow orange color out of the bottle with only a small white head. Thin citrus nose with a little sour to it. Some lemon citrus notes, some doughy yeast, and light grain. Actually very little flavor at all. Clean finish. Something a little funky in the background.

Pours a cloudy yellow color with a big white head. Very faint malt and yeast flavors come through. Overall a pretty faint and thin wheat. Easy to drink on a warm summer day but shit, Blue Moon White is better than this.

12 ounce bottle. Shaker glass. Cloudy yellow with a thin head and some floaters. The aroma was strong with notes of lemon, orange peel and citrusy hops. The flavor was much the same, citrus, lemon, wheat and maybe a touch of spice.

Not a big fan of Wheat beers and this was no exception. Looked like a wheat beer, tasted like a bland wheat beer and the yeast was apparent.

Light yellow color with minimal head. alcohol on the nose. My second lemon palmolive beer this week. Leaves my mouth dry.

Pours light hazy gold, with bits floating around. Citrus, hops, and grain nose. The taste is a watery wheat with an oily lemon finish. Leaves an aftertaste in your mouth for a bit.

Light gold, with a medium white head that fades to a thin film. Fruity wheat aroma. Medium body and a very fruity flavor that carries through like a fruit punch. Clean finish that, fortunately, leaves little of the fruit left in the mouth.
