This one was my favorite of the day. On tap at ellis island brewery in LV. Appearance is cloudy, little hops. Tastes more of a belgian wit then a hefeweizen Lemon notes, floral citrus taste, delicious. served with a lemon wedge. 24 oz brew for $1.75 at a microbrewery doesn’t get much better. I wish they bottled and shipped to Chicago region.. I enjoyed this brew with a steak before the Beatles Love show at the Mirage..

Tap at casino. Pours a hazy yellow appearance with a white head. Wheat malty nose with lemon citrus. Overally wheat malty flavor that’s almost like mash. Strong lemon and lemon flavors. Not very good.

Draft. Hazy golden beer with a cream colored head. Light malt and light wheat aroma. Wheat and malt flavor with light citrus. Medium-light bodied. Wheat and light citrus lingers with light spice.

Pours hazy blonde with a light head. Aroma is wheat and citrus, flavor is wheat and mostly tap water. Pretty bland even for a weissen.

tmoreau (1355) - Lombard, Illinois, USA - JUN 14, 2010
One of a battery of large samplers of the beers on tap at the time of my visit, and generously offered to me by the brewer, Joe. The color was a fairly clear, gold tone, with modest, white foam to the head, and nice, web-like cling to the lacing. The aroma was light yeast, wheat, only a slight hint of banana, a little spice, and a bit of tartness. The flavor was similar, but in a lesser degree, with low carbonation and light body. Not much character for the style.

djd07 (1727) - Houston, Texas, USA - MAR 15, 2010
On tap at Ellis Island casino. Pours a cloudy yellow golden with a medium frothy white head that lasts awhile leving spotty lacing. The aroma is a lemon zest and citrus wheat. Thin mouthfeel with a lemon and wheat flavor. Easy to drink, a very good Wheat ale from Ellis Island. Cant beat 22 oz for 1.50 in Vegas.

riversideAK (4568) - Shoreline, Washington, USA - SEP 7, 2009
Wheat and lemon in the nose with a light hint of yeast. Pours cloudy yellow orange with no head. Wheat malt and lemon are the dominant flavors in this one. Clean and quaffable with a refreshing finish and som elingering wheat notes. Well done american wheat ale.

j12601 (4434) - Poughkeepsie, New York, USA - AUG 29, 2009
Pours a nice hazy golden amber with a medium to large creamy white head. Nice soft wheat notes, light lemon, though that may be because it came with a big hunk of lemon on the edge. Little thin and a touch metallic, with some nice crisp wheat notes to it. Finishes light with a touch of bitterness.

Small sample at the brewery. Nicely carbonated. Nice citrus tastes. Great deal.

hellbilly (3053) - scottsdale über alles, Arizona, USA - JUL 7, 2009
cloudy golden yellow colored pour with a soft white head from the tap at the village pub. typical aromas of dust, lemon, earthy spice/coriander and some banana. the flavor is the same with some orange tossed in and a dry yeasty finish. body is medium and has some substance. not bad... especially for a buck! 5/4/6/3/13/3.1
