Tap at the Africa Lounge, SEATAC, 27/05/13. Hazed orange with a thin white head that clears to a film. Nose is wheat, citrus, pale malts, grass, cereals, light caramel. Taste comprises cereals, grain, citrus, malt. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, grassy notes in the finish. A tad boring.

Im a bit suspicious of this one because it was noticeably hoppy and of the same hop profile as the african amber and poured from the same tap that usually pour the amber ale. Coincidence or not it was quite delicious. Light body, creamy, and refreshing. The hoppiness keeps it interesting, if it is legit.

On tap. Pours a cloudy yellow with almost no head. Aroma of citrus and wheat. Flavor is sweet and wheaty; pretty smooth. Decent but not spectacular.

Draft at elliott bay pizza. Pours a murky medium amber with a densely fizzy white head and loose drippy lace. Big crisp brown bread wheat nose. Creamy medium body with lively carb. Beautiful nutty brown multi grain bread mid palate. Satisfying nutty finish. Sentimental favorite among wheats for me.

Down the hatch at the African Lounge is Sea Tac airport. Hazy yellow pour with a decent sized head. Malty aroma. Taste is kind of thin, with hints of banana, grass and wheat. One to drink when you don’t want to fill up on a big beer.

Mac & Jack’s Brewery 2011 Serengeti Wheat. 4 oz. Taster @ Fremont, Seattle Hop Scotch Beer & Scotch Festival on 4/1/2011. 4.70% ABV. 25 IBU’s. Mild lace white head. Opaque cloudy creamy orange color. Mild fruit ester hop front. Fruity dry sweet slightly creamy strawberry fruit wheat body. Dry clean refreshing end. Odd hefe flavor. Not quite NW with some Bavarian hints and rich fruity notes. (3.0 / 5.0).

Nice full wheat beer. Had this one at farellies off of pacific ave. Decent head.

I was disappointed in this beer thinking it would be more like a hefe..i was wrong. I gave it a chace on 3 occassions but doesn’t satisfy the palate.

Typical wheat beer that was very cloudy yellow. Served with some lemons and had a hint of coriander. Decent.

Draft @ Flying Pie, Boise, ID. Pours a hazy pale orange color with a small off-white head. Has a fruity wheat malty yeasty banana aroma with some hints of citrus. Fruity wheat malty yeasty spicy banana flavor. Has a sweetish wheat malty spicy finish.
