On tap @ Heartland, Empire State Building:
Pale brown colour, small head; looks dull. Citrus aroma; might come from the slice of lemon that was stuck on the glass. Fizzy mouth feel. Citrus and yeast flavour with boozy (!) bitterness.

Location: On tap at the 51st and 6th location of the brew pub
Aroma: Honey, wheat
Appearance: Hazy yellow
Flavor: Sweet earthy malts, tiny bit of spice
Palate: Relatively boring mouthfeel
Overall Impression: Not a very impressive beer, it was rather mediocre and limited in quality and taste. I thought the flavor in particular was really lacking...
Of the two wheats they had on my visit this was the inferior one (the other was the Wildflower).

(10/22/08) Draught sample at the brewpub at Empire State Building, New York. Cloudy pale yellow color. Aroma has some wheat and a bit of fruity esters. Sweetish flavor with some wheat, citrus notes and some fruitiness. Medium-bodied. Boring but drinkable.

A murky dark hazy golden ale with a thin white. Aroma is ruined by the slug of lime. In mouth, a rather thin and borig wheat ale, with light malt, mineral water, oh-hum.....Tasted at the brewpub, Nov. 2006.

Extremely bland and uninteresting. Light yeast and the faintest spice you can imagine. The provided lemon slice didn’t help the situation any, either.

Straw yellow color, nut much head. Very light, almost watery flavor. Light fruity-sweetish notes. Hearland’s Corona? Not at all a wheat beer -like.

Cloudy light amber color. Very light aroma. Medium body structure, some malt, low wheat character. Strong bitterness. Too simple.

Sample at the Heartland Chophouse: Served with a lemon. Hazy golden orange color with a medium thin and dense bone white head . Thin, spotty lacing. Malty, bready aroma. Light-bodied and smooth with malt, wheat and light hops flavors. The finish is clean and fairly bitter. Pretty basic but well-made.

(On tap) Almost grey golden, not as orangey as a German wheat, not as yellow as a Belgian. Not an easy beer to make out, heavy on the citrus-flavours, but somehow in a harsh and primitive way. Hasn’t got the refined and sophisticated flavour patterns as it’s German and Belgian counterparts. Surprisingly bitter for a wheat.

Pours a moderately cloudy yellow, very wavy with some lighter whites and slighter darker copper hues. Small to no white head. Lightly citrusy and doughy aroma. Very light body with little flavor ending in a better finish with tons of raw wheat flavor, quite chewy. Some yeast and a touch of lemon. Mildly sweet. Good finish, but that’s about it.
