COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Airdale Horizon, is a style of wheat beer (weissbier). It is made with a typical ratio of 40:60, or even higher, wheat to barley malt. This beer is light, bright, and zippy on the palate with an often dry and tart edge, coupled with some hop spiciness. Little hop bitterness permeates the beer and it possesses a moderate level of alcohol. The “Hefe” prefix means “with yeast”, hence the beers unfiltered and cloudy appearance. Often served with a lemon wedge (popularized by Americans), to either cut the wheat or yeast edge, which many find to be a flavorful snap.

Sampled at GABF. A - Electric apricot -- almost neon orange in color -- full of sediment -- simply gorgeous! S - Citrus & freshly baked french bread T - Clove, tangerine, bread dough, and spicy citrus backend M - Very full, nice effervescence, love the sediment! D - Surprisingly refreshing for something looking so thick. Probably my favorite Hefe right now. I’m tiring of the banana/clove thing, so it’s great to find something so flavorful without being cloying.
