dm9831 (503), Monee, Illinois, USA Mar 12, 2008 pours dark red, frothy tannish head with nice lacing. aroma is florally hoppy, grapefruit and evergreen. not a hint of whet in the flavor, but loads of hoppy grapefruit and evergreen. quite enjoyable and bitter finish. delicious refreshing bitter fun. also this is the highest rating for a beer so far. i will have revisit some of my favorite brews to see if they should be up here too. csbosox (879), Prairie Village, Kansas, USA Mar 3, 2008 On tap at the 2007 GTMW: Hoppy, piney/amarillo aroma, which come across as a touch grassy. Flavor is pine, citrus, harsh hops, and candi sugar. CaptainCougar (4478), Wauwatosa, Wisconsin and Atlanta, Georgia, USA Nov 18, 2007 On tap at the 2007 GTMW: Pours a bright transparent orange amber with a thin, wispy-lacing off-white head. Real fresh sweet dark wheat and lots of piny resiny hops in the nose. Body starts fairly full and toasty malty but not overly sweet with a great balance of crisp, fresh hops. Very smooth, drinkable and flavorful, a great American wheat ale! nhorween (439), New York, New York, USA Oct 9, 2007 Tap with sersdf at the maproom. Solid but unremarkable. I didn’t even realize it was a wheat until I read the description here, so that’s that about the wheat thing. Definitely drinkable, with a hop finish. sersdf (816), chicago, Illinois, USA Oct 8, 2007 draft at maproom. dark opaque red brown. smell isn’t wheaty at all. hopppy and sourdough. smooth and balanced but hoppy bitterness. great. drinkable. really nothing american wheat about this. pretty much just a good solid beer.
