Commercial Description:
This seasonal favorite is a tawny gold ale, clean, crisp and refreshing, with a spicy, aromatic finish from Noble, Saaz and Hallertauer hops. It is bolder than traditional Weizen beers and hoppier than maibocks.

Golden coloured. Crystal malt flavour, clean with some bitterness. Not much wheat character.

Doesn’t really resemble a wheat beer at all. It has a fresh, spicy aroma and lightly earthy hoppiness

This wheat is a bit on the bitter side. Not bad, not great. A hophead’s wheat beer. Not what I was looking for on a 98 degree (F) day.

Pours dark straw with medium head. Aroma and taste of wheat, citrus, yeast, and some honey. Fairly crisp finish.

This seemed more like a summer ale - lacked most ’wheat’ characteristics. Thad would be o.k. but it had a weird fruity/sweetness that did not go well with the hop. odd.

Bleh. Overly sweet, with a koolaidesque lemon flavor. Somewhat of a metallic aftertaste. Some bitterness develops but doesn’t help much. Reminds me the Lost Coast Great White, which I liked even less.

Pour Flat, no carbination, no head with. Head taste of honey and mild cloves. wheaty. Drinkable, not spectacular
