3.3 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 frpilz (104) - Illinois, USA - JAN 21, 2012
Best part of this beer was the aroma, after that I was a little disspaointed. Mediocre taste and head and appearence. Slight hop overtones were not a compliment but a distraction from the malty taste. Not the worst beer by any means, but wouldnt buy again.

Pours a hazy golden color with a medium sized foamy white head. Notes of clover, alcohol, wheat germ, and honey. Kind of gross.

Bottle: Pale golden pour with lots of bubbles and a small white head. Grassey, crisp, and malty come to mind after a few sniffs. Moderately hopped for a wheat ale; grassey, floral, bready, and wheat flavors fit in like they belong here. Ok.

12 oz. bottle. This beer pours clear and straw yellow, with a loose, medium-sized off-white head that settled quickly, leaving almost no lacing whatsoever. The aroma profile is sweet grain with a hint of honey. This beer is a malt bomb from start to finish with little flavor complexity, and nominal wheat character. This offering could use some hop balance in the finish.

12oz bottle from Pick’s poured into a shaker. Pours a clear dark gold with about a finger of white head. Aroma is mostly grainy caramel malt with some light grapefruit hops. Taste is light sweet and very light bitter. Similar to the aroma. It’s pretty good, but not a lot going on here. Medium bodied with a somewhat thin texture. Lively carbonation and an average finish. Overall, not bad. Nothing really special but a great intro to craft. And at 6 bucks, it’s a decently cheap intro to craft. I’d take this over any light beer any day.

Shiner 102 Double Wheat has a very thin, white head and a clear, golden appearance, with some streaming bubbles and no lacing. The aroma is of Roman Meal bread and maybe molasses and honey. Taste is of Roman Meal brand wheat bread, honey, molasses, syrupy sweetness, and alcohol. Mouthfeel is medium, and Shiner 102 Double Wheat finishes slick and metallic. Overall, this is a hard beer to rate and figure out, but it’s still worth a try. RJT
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 bluejacket74 (992) - Reynoldsburg, Ohio, USA - NOV 3, 2011
12 ounce bottle. Served in a pint glass, the beer pours a dark gold color with about a half inch off-white head. The head retention is pretty good, and there’s a decent amount of lacing left behind on the glass. Aroma is mostly grainy, the brew smells like sweet malt and wheat, along with some caramel and light grassy hops. The taste is just like the aroma. It’s a mostly sweet grainy taste, along with some bittering/grassy hops in the finish. Mouthfeel/body is light/medium, it’s crisp and easy enough to drink. Overall it’s an OK brew, and worth a try.
