COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION Cask; Occasional. What’s a wheat beer? Simply enough, it’s beer - brewed from wheat, instead of barley. Wheat beers have always been big selling in Germany but have never really been part of the British beer-drinking tradition. In the past few years, holidaymakers and business visitors have discovered the clean and very different flavour that these beers have to offer, and demand for imported, bottled wheat beer has been steadily increasing in Britain. There are still very few cask-conditioned wheats available, however, and The Beer Works was pleased to produce the excitingly-named "Wheat Beer" for domestic consumption. The brew has since been continued under the Abbeydale banner, again known by the snappy advertising-hype buzzword Wheat. Unlike barley-based brews, wheat beer is best served with the sediment in suspension and bottles should be lightly shaken before opening. The cask beer should, likewise, be served cloudy, and one can expect to be treated to the sight of critical, bedevilled beer drinkers who are used to complaining that their precious pint is "too cloudy" instead lifting their glasses to the light and wryly complaining that their pint is "too clear."
