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

Bottle sampled with Beerded one. Pours a slight cloudy golden with a thin white head. Aroma of lemon and grassy hops. The flavor is sweet, lemons, and citrus. Thin bodied, ok brew.

Wierd, lemony aroma and flavor that tastes ok, but comes across as a gimmick. I want malt and hops, not lemongrrass. Probably would go great with Thai food.

On tap at the brewpub. pours a cloudy rich gold with a limited white head. Very lemony aroma. The body is thin, watery, and boring. I get no wheat yeast esters at all. Disappointing.

Pours a hazy golden/amber with a medium sized white head that dissipates fairly quickly. Aroma is of pale malts with a hint of citrus. Taste is also of pale malts, but with wheat as well as the citrus flavor from the lemongrass. Overall, a good refreshing spring/summer brew.

Bottle A fruity wheat and hop aroma, lemon, and a very acidic scent. Appearance is a clear golden pour with a medium sized white head that dissipates quickly. It’s got some really good lacing in this beer. Very carbonated. Taste is really uneven and somewhat harsh, definate wheat notes, but it’s seems really grainy. It’s kind of like seltzer water in my mouth with all that carbonation. Palate is decent, a lightly bitter and somewhat corny aftertaste. Overall, There a 10 times better Wheat’s out there. Booooo!

Lightly hazy, light brown body; almost no head. Aroma is wheat and apple juice; citrusy and lightly sour. Flavor mirrors aroma. Thin. This is another garbage beer from Tommyknocker, and possibly another infection. Drainpour.

A hazy straw colour with a fast disappearing head, this wheat beer has aroma of lemons. Is a fairly weak wheat with slight citrus flavors and distinct taste of honey. Is improved with a lemon wedge!
