OGriffs Dark Wheat

Brewed by OGriffs Irish Pub and Brew House
Style: Wheat Ale
Quincy, Illinois USA

From the tap, serve in a standard bar pint glass. Made an average appearance, poured a clear brownish copper with a small head that quickly settled into a thin lacing, moderate carbonation. Had a clean nose, just banana and sweet fruity wheat malt. A slick, smooth medium bodied mouth feel, above average drinkability. Like the aroma, simple, but crisp and tasty, banana and fruity malts with a very light hop bite towards the end, and a sweet banana fruity finish. A tasty and highly quaffable brew, simple and balanced, worth giving a try.

Quite a dark wheat beer! The glass had some head and lacing remained throughout. Unique flavor for a wheat. Might even have been a barley taste. The typical wheat flavors were very faint. Nice beer, though, very drinkable.

It had a strong wheat smell and a grainy taste taste that didn’t last long. It was pretty dark for a wheat beer and I don’t remember there being much head. Wasn’t too impressive.

Brown-red in color. Small white head, mostly diminishing except for a thin ring. Moderately strong wheat aroma is rather sweet, nearly sugary. HUGE rye/grainy flavor, along with a bunch of buttery diacetyl. Started strong, but overall failed.
