on tap at the 2005 detoberfest pubcrawl. ugh, a reminder why i don’t like wheat beers in general. authentically german yeastiness and sweet wheat presence, but way too much banana and bubblegum for me to really enjoy....

Orange, amber color with a lot of wheat floaties. Off white head. Smells strong, citrus, coriander. The taste is really sour. This tastes like a flemish sour. It’s like a mock flemish sour I guess. Hopefully it just isn’t one beer gone bad.

I just had a BBQ and I got a quarter barrel of MCBW’s Amber Wheat. Even non wheat beer fans drank it up. I love this compared to most other wheat’s as I was not over powered by a floral aroma. Lots of bannana and citrus. So much fun.

Hazy dark yellow hue with a big rocky white head and good lace. Aroma hints of wheat, lemon, spice, dusty yeast, and banana esters. Very traditional nose. More malty taste that most hefeweizens, I guess that's the amber part. Still can detect the citrus, wheat, and banana. Spicy and smooth finish. I respectable wheat by American standards. Quaffable.

Amber Wheat pours out to well, amber, in the glass. I guess the name fits the color, eh? An interesting wheat beer. This one has a the taste of an amber ale with the added benefits of a hefe. Tasty and easy to drink, this would be a very good beer to pair up with BBQ.
