Depends on what you like in wheat beer. This is the deliberately unoffensive American style (ie., no phenolic aromas, flavors ), but it is fresh, I guess. Even a true hefeweizen reminiscent of Schneider or Hacker would be out of place in an incredible British brewpub such as this, but it would be really GOOD beer nonetheless.

Aug 19, 2005 Sampler draft at Broad Ripple. Hazy golden with a medium head that diminished quickly. Medium malt and wheat aroma. Medium body with smooth wheat texture. Well balanced flavor of citrus, wheat and malt with a medium sweet finish.

Jan 23, 2005 From a growler filled two hours earlier, by John Hill, owner of the Broad Ripple Brew Pub. Cloudy yellow with a small head. Sour malt aroma as well as some sweetness in the nose. The flavor is of yeast, wheat, light malts and citrus flavors. Average finish.

Jun 29, 2004 (sample @ brewery) a hazy yellow/white beer with a decent head and little lace. no german banana/clove in the nose-all toasty wheatiness. flavor is very light and crisp, with a mild bubblegum note in the finish (a little yeast charecter?). easy to drink, though not particularly exciting.

Feb 3, 2004 Draft sample. This beer formed a small sized white head with fine-small sized bubbles that mostly diminished. The body was hazy and uncarbonated with a yellow hue. The nose was light malt, light hops and some fruit esters. The flavor was flat, bland, boring and lacks character. The mouthfeel was smooth with a watery and thin texture. This was a light bodied beer with excellent lacing.
