Commercial Description:
The first Odd Notion to be revealed is Dark Wheat Ale. Brewed with 50 percent malted wheat and lightly hopped, it's an enticingly deep brown, full-bodied ale with a slightly fruity nose of roasted malts. On the palate, it offers a rich roasted malt flavor and a distinctive character endowed with warm notes of cocoa, toffee, and caramel. Drinkers will find it has a low level of malt astringency.Malts: Pale, dark candy sugar, Chocolate, Malted Wheat, Munich. Hops: Hersbrucker SRM: 45.0, Gravity: 1.014, IBU: 25

Pours a very dark brown with a dark beige head. Aroma is very appealing of sweet roasted malt and some roasted coffee. Full body with a lush mouth feel. Well balanced taste with roasted aroma coming through in the taste. A very nice beer with some hops at the end.
