Hand-crafted in small batches, Point Maple Wheat features a natural blend of the finest wheat, four varieties of specialty malts, a light helping of Liberty and Cascade hops and 100% pure maple syrup. This unique beer features a smooth, rich flavor with a balanced finish.

Light in body but the maple was sickeningly sweet

Gee, I think this stuff is pretty good. The maple flavoring is subtle but adds a nice touch to this otherwise average beer. I’m not big on flavored beers but this one tastes quite decent to me.

This was a really bad idea. I brew a good deal of beer and also spend my springs in Northern Michigan making syrup, and have made my own usually less than succesful attempts to compine these liquids. But the cheap candy flavor of this beer is simply wrong. Disappointing, because I’m a huge fan of the Point brewery.

A light, refreshing American wheat with the slightest hint of maple. I found the maple characteristics a bit too subdued with the wheat style. Could use a bit more ingredients to beef it up a bit.
