Named after Decorah’s main street, this beer pays homage to our original accounts, most of who reside on Water Street. Hints of bananas and cloves make this wheat beer a favorite. Easy drinking with tons of flavor, the velvet texture finish is reminiscent of the Upper Iowa River, which flows just down the street from the original brewery.

22 oz. bottle. dated 6/8/15. Head is a bit heavier than the usual frothy wheat beer head. A light amber beer body, shows clearly filtered. Smell, is just there, a bit of wheat malt spice, mostly carbon dioxide from the bubbles. Taste kind of lacks the promise wheat ale esters. Just seems to offer some malts, and a bit of tart. Rather clean palate. I get a bit more character once I swirl in the yeast and dregs from the bottom of the bottle. But unlike the other TG brews I’ve tried, this is just fair.

Bottle shared by Adam, thanks! Pours a hazy amber gold with a white head that lasts throughout the beer. Aroma has a touch of tropical fruit and coconut with a lot of wheat and a slight toast note. Flavor has a toasted wheat note with a bit of coconut and tropical fruit underlying.

Bottle thanks to ReeceG. Pours cloudy orange amber, small off-white head, dissipates quickly, some lacing. Aroma is caramel, wheat and pine. Flavor is medium sweet, light bitter, lots of caramel, light wheat, pine. Not getting banana or cloves out of this one. Medium body, low carbonation. Not a winner.
