Six Rivers High Prairie Wheat

Brewed by Six Rivers Brewery
Style: Wheat Ale
McKinleyville, California USA

Draft @ the brewpub. Pours a very pale yellow color with a small white head. Has a wheat malty citrus aroma. Sweetish wheat malty grainy flavor with some hints of citrus. Has a sweetish wheat malty finish.

(Draft: Six Rivers Brewery in McKinleyville, CA) This is a pretty generic, light bodied wheat beer in the American style, neither offensive nor something to rave about. Standard wheat flavor is accompanied by a moderate citrus flavor and gentle bitterness. Hardly any aroma to this beer though, even with this tall, narrow glass. Pale straw color, slightly cloudy in appearance, with a small, rapidly diminishing white head that leaves just a few spots of lace on the glass. So, nothing special here, but very drinkable, and certainly a decent beer for a style that tends to yield plenty of disappointing brews.

on tap at six rivers. nice brewpub in the middle of nowhere but the beers were a bit of a disappointment. this was very thin, typical poor us wheat, just a bit of breakfast cereal in lemonade

Tap@Six rivers. In all honesty, not much better than the Loaders Light. Pretty lemony and light, some hop aromatics, have yet to find a truely great American wheat.

Tap @ brewpub. Golden color with little head. Good body but these American wheats are just boring.

Tasting Notes from Fall 2000: Simple beer, not sweet. OK but not great
