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 from ZindeHey, thanks. Hazy golden yellow with next to no head. Aroma of malt, lemongrass and honey. Taste of honey, malt, wheat and mild lemon grass. It’s okay but nothing I’d seek out.

Bottle: Poured a yellow color with a lot of white head. The aroma was wheat, grass, and malts. The flavor was malts, lemon, wheat, and honey. Overall, I’m seriously thinking all of the Tommyknocker beers are starting to taste the same.

(bottle). Pours a yellow color. Medium to large size head, which is white in color. Aromas of grass and wheat. Taste of wheat and lemongrass. Smooth finish which is somewhat watery, with a lasting wheat taste. Medium carbonation.

Bottle. Poured a hazy gold color. Decent head, but went quickly. Aroma was wheat, grass, and malts. Flavor was overpowered by the lemon flavor. It was a good thing though. A different wheat beer. It was actually very good.

Crushed with Jakebra. A surprisingly nice wheat ale. Good, honey and wheat nose. Flavor is not cloying at all and incredibly smooth. Maybe cuz I’m a little drunk, but this is a pretty damn good wheat ale.

(Bottle, Oliver Twist, Stockholm) Cloudy golden colour with very brief, white head. Fruity nose with apricots, peaches, vanilla and distinct bubble-gum aromas. Fruity taste with notes of peaches, mandarin, citrus and hints of sweet candy. Finish is slightly spicy but not overly sweet. Thin body. Rather fresh but on the boring side.

12 oz bottle. Pours pale hazy yellow with a decent crisp white head. Smells wheaty, floral, and candy-ish. Tastes like wheat and sugar. Some kind of candy sweetness that is unusual, but not bad.
