Commercial Description:
The Wheeler Wheat is our latest mainstay and is a result of input from our staff and customers. People wanted refreshment and Wheeler Wheat is all about that. It's an American-style wheat with 45% malted wheat and select specialty malts. It has a pleasantly mild hop profile and has been enhanced with orange peel and coriander for added refreshment.

22oz bomber-A golden yellowish body with again a small white head which has an aroma of wheat and citrus. Taste of a watered down hefe with not as good flavors. Pretty bad.

Slightly hazed golden body with good lacing. The flavor is a little watery, but the wheat is present. Good spicing, but definitely reserved. Not a top tier witbier (what the menu listed it as), but defintely refreshing.

On tap at the Backcountry Brew Pub. Poured a light and slighty hazy golden color with a small sized white head. Aromas and tastes of very light wheat, citrus with a light spicy finish. Thin and watery body.

Draft 6 oz’er at the brewpub: Very active yellow beer with a big white head and the aroma of a melted creamsicle. This drinks milky and very biscuity for a wheat beer, giving it more of a cream ale character.
