On draft at Sharp Edge Brasserie. Poured hazy gold with thin white head. Subtle sweet, grassy nose. Flavor is also grassy with floral tones and light citrus notes. Thin and slightly yeasty. Probably about as good as a wheat ale could taste.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bomber from Frank Smith’s. Pours turbid dark straw orangy with 1-finger frothy white clingy head. Nose is piney citric hops, coriandery spice, orange zest. Tastes very tangeriney, hoppy, with spicy coriander notes, some florals, mild yeasty funk, and some white peppery hints. Comes off like a witbier/hoppy IPA hybrid with a dash of bier de garde.

Poura a hazy orange/yellow with a medium white head. Aroma is orange juice! Flavor is more grassy and spicy than orangey but does have hints of orange peel...pithy. mouthfeel is light/medium and silky with a dry spicy/grassy finish.

Hazy golden with a large head. Aroma is citrus hops, light floral, soft malts. Tiny carbonated bubble give it a fairly soft body with a light bite on the back. Flavor has nice light citrus, lemon, and a bit of floral. This one really works for me. A soft beer overall with no one tone attacking the tongue and the carbonation level is perfect for it. Lovely.

Sampled on draft at 3R6P this beer poured a hazy yellow color with a large foamy white head that left great lacing. The aroma was bitter grapefruit, lemon and was somewhat tart. The flavor was tart and bitter lemon and orange with a chalky presence and a bit of dish soap. The finish was long, bitter and tangy citrus. Medium body. Ok.

Pours perfectly cloudy golden orange with a decent white head. The aroma is light and brings the piney citrus hops over and bready notes. The flavor brings the hops as well, and the wheat ale base ends with a dry, but not over-bittered, hop flavor that you would never normally get on a regular wheat ale. It is quite unique and pleasant.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
Draft at the Bocktown tasting on 04/28/12. If I’m going to drink a wheat, I want it to taste like this! Lots of hop in this guy. Typical cloudy whitish/yellow pour for a wheat, but the scent gave away some of the hop to come. The taste had a sweet wheat front, but then a bitter grass hop explosion. Very tasty.
