COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Horny Goat Wheat is a Belgian-Style white beer, craft brewed with wheat, malted barley, hops and a bit of orange peel and coriander. It’s natural haze from yeast and wheat make it a classic to be enjoyed on its own, or with a slice of orange. Horny Goat Wheat loves big cans... those little 12 ounce bottles aren’t enough beer, and cans fully protect the beer from light and oxygen, producing a new level of fresh that you won’t find out of a bottle. Cans are also easier to recycle and better for the environment... as an ecologist if you don’t believe the brainiacs at Horny Goat.

UPDATED: OCT 4, 2009 Another one of the many decent beers purchased at Woodman’s in Madison, WI. This is a highly drinkable but unmemorable beer, it’s the type of beer you drink to pass the time. There’s hints of coriander and clove in here, very unassuming beer that should be towards your last on a drunken night...the one you won’t remember but the one that’ll help you get tipsy.

Poured a hazy yellow with froathy white head that lasts. Aroma is faint: yeast, oranges, spices. Flavor watery oranges and corn. Not very good.

This one poured a cloudy yellow color with a white head. Aroma was wheaty, some citrus, and spices. Flavor was actually nice and spicey with some orange and citrus flavor. This is definately the best of the 3.

Taco Mac strikes again! Cloudy yellowish/gold color. Typical aroma of wheat and orangewith some light spice. Flavor is boring and really not that good. Seems hard to fuck up a wheat, but so many breweries do.

Can from Mellow Mushroom (Chattanooga). Poured hazy yellow color with a large frothy white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate sweet grainy aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium citrus sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. Drinkable but only worth having once.

Bottle. Pours hazy golden color with nice fluffy head. Aroma is somewhat like beer. Flavor follows aroma, for the most part. Very thin body. Has qualities that suggest use of sugars or corn syrup instead of malted barley. Might go well with almonds, but I think I’ll skip the beer and just have the almonds next time.

Thanks ScottyP. Can pours a fading off-white head with a deep golden, slightly hazy body. Smells and tastes of creamed corn. FInish has a metallic edge.

From a can obtained in a trade with Erik in Indiana this poured a hazy golden color with a fat white head and good lacing for a witbier. Nose of citrus and coriander. Medium mouthfeel. Flavor of oranges and wheat malts. Decent beer but overall just kind of average.
