on tap-pours an off white head and hazy straw color. Aroma is lemon/resin. Taste is lemon/resin hops, dry, secondary wheat/light malt. OK effervescence.

Hazed yellow with creamy white head and lace. Lemon and wheat aroma. Lemon, wheat, and a nice resiny flavor without a lot of bitter. Watery and fizzy but very nice.

Real nice Hefe-IPA. Hefe plus Hops and clean and bitter. Wow, what a nice combo. I was surprised, its hard to remember the subdlties since I had a few before this one, but really a nice beer. The coolest thing about Chama beer is the "lets make a beer" brewing strategy. I like the one-off type brews these guys throw down, come try it!

hazy yellow with a soapy white head with some decent lacing from the start. floral citurs hops dominate at first wiff but as the beer warmed, a bit of the traditional german hefe character came out-bubblegum and lite esters (mostly covered by the hops). bigtime floral hops on the flavors that meld well with the yeast here. long citrus finish of orange peal, a bit of pineapple and fresh hop cones. a bit of lemon and tangerine as well. fantastic little beer!
