JPDIPSO (4189), Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, USA Aug 20, 2007 Draft Wisconsin State Fair under the name Wisco Wheat. Hazy straw color with a smallish white head. Wheat and citrus scents. More citrus flavors than malt in this one. Somewhat quenching, but not much of a wheat beer. More an American Wheat. BeerBelcher (698), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Aug 13, 2007 I had this, I believe, at the Benno’s craft beer tent at the 2007 Wisconsin State Fair. The tap handle said "Wisco Wheat," and I didn’t think enough of it to inquire further.
It was a bit dark in hazy color for a wheat beer, with some inconsistently sized bubbles. Aroma was light and citrusy. Flavor was more orange than other recent wheat beers (Leinie’s Sunset Wheat, for example) which are either more berry-ish or citrus-y. That was fine, but I didn’t much care for the overly malty flavor of this beer - it really didn’t seem to fit for a beer of this style and to be quite honest I struggled a bit to finish it, but given I paid $5.25 for this glass of beer, I was able to get it down. robertsreality (2462), Minnesota, USA Apr 1, 2005 Cloudy Apricot with No Head. Almost Tootsie Roll Smell. Fruity..Dry and Tart...Overripe Aftertaste... badgerben (3001), Blaine, Minnesota, USA Mar 31, 2005 Cloudy yellow color with no head. Oh man... it smells like fermented Tang! The taste is better: fruity and sweet wheat. Probably not a good example of a German Hefe, but a decent wheat beer.
