21st Amendment Hell or High Watermelon Wheat

Brewed by 21st Amendment Brewery
Style: Fruit Beer
San Francisco, California USA

Pale yellow in color... Wheaty aroma... Flavor initially has hints of watermelon which kind of overshadows the wheat flavor of the beer and makes it taste slightly watery and bland... Finish isn’t terribly exciting, but is more characteristic of a wheat than the flavor... Okay beer.

This really had no aroma at all. Nothing to tell you it had watermelon in at anyway. It poured hazy yellow with a fluffy head. Taste was very refreshing. You got a hint of watermelon at the end of the sip. Clean finish. Nice on a hot day.

Had to try it. Not often you see a fruit like watermelon used in a beer. Not as bad as i thought. Still a beer. Not as fruity as other beers which is both good and bad. Watermelon is barely detectable but is welcome in this crisp wheat beer. Not as sweet as i’d like, but nonetheless worth a try.

Draft sample poured barely golden and somewhat hazy. Real watermelon presence (a bit like agua fresca) complimented by creamy mouthfeel from wheat. Restrained malt flavors, no detectable hops and clean yeast make for balanced and restrained offering.

Can. Pours a gold body with a slight haze and no head. Aroma is wheat and light fruit. Taste is smooth, malt, wheat and a touch of fruit. Lingering after taste of watermelon. Overall this beer tastes more like a wheat ale rather than a fruit beer.

can. lightly hazy golden in color with a small off white head. Aroma of watermelon, pale malt, some wheat and a touch of floral hops. Taste is actually pretty nice- fresh watermelon, some wheat and light pale malt sweetness. Light bodied, went down well on a warm brew day.

On tap at Hopyard. There is DEFINITELY watermelon there. The watermelon flavor is strong but not overpowering. Golden with thin white head. Nose is watermelon and, well wheat.

Slightly hazy with a dark straw color. Moderate head that dies off quickly; leaves no lasting lace. Sour and wheaty to the nose. A touch of sweetness but no watermelon that I can discern. Definite watermelon in the taste, but not as the dominant flavor. Good wheat base. Light sweetness on the tongue, but this is completely gone in the swallow. Very short aftertaste and very dry. Good body with a solid level of carbonation.
