An American wheat ale brewed with white wheat and dry hopped with hand-selected hops from the Yakima Valley. Bright and refreshing with a lemony finish.

Bottle. Poured a clear golden with a small white head. Citrusy hops aroma with a bit of sweet caramel. Flavor is citrus hops, grass, sweet caramel, and a little peppery spice. Medium bodied with a light carbonated tingle. This was my favorite go-to beer for the summer of 2010. I really enjoy the malt/hop combo.

Orange clear color, small white head. Exotic fruity hoppy aroma (pineapple, peach). Light to medium bodied. Flavor is similar to aroma: exotic hoppyness (peach, apricot, pineapple), sweet malts. Wheat ale? More like an APA. Good one though.

Bottle. Dark golden with a white head. Surely it was a very nice Wheat Ale. I particularly liked the nice aroma, a lot of apricot and citrus. A lot of hops, some lbanana, medium-carbonation, orange, pineapple, light mouth feel, refreshing and invigorating.

12 oz bottle. Pours clear golden with a white head. Aroma is hop forward with a heavy emphasis on pine resin and grapefruit, a note of berry, leading into wheat in the background. Flavor features more of a lemony citrus and pine hoppiness, backed by a very clean, toasty wheat flavor. I honestly don’t think I’ve tasted wheat quite this way in a beer before, and it’s really good. An excellent American wheat; my only complaint is the lightness of the palate.

Bottle. It pours a slightly hazy golden body under a small, white head. A bit neutral on the nose, but nice. Wheaty and hoppy with some peppery hints. Grapefruit and pinecones, and a lemon-peel whiff. Grapefruit, some pinecones and a slightly spiced touch in the flavor, with wheat and some caramel, bready hints in the back. Sure hop driven. Full-bodied and nicely carbonated, finishing rather bitter. A wonderfully refreshing and quenching beer I really enjoyed after a long, boring day a work. 100723

Bottle. Pale yellow colour, Sweet mix of wheat and citrus hops in aroma. Notes of wheat, mango, melon and vegtables in taste. Quite thin body, but that fits this kind of beer good. Tastes like a very sweet and wheaty pale ale.

Refrigerated bottle poured into a weizen glass. Aroma is very spicy hops, not much lacing, and medium smooth body. Pours a light hazy orange, with small white head, and not much carbonation. Taste is spicy aromatic hops (pine and grass), some wheat, and a hint of lemon. This beer is an interesting marriage of american pale ale and american wheat ale. Slightly overrated for me, but worth a try.
