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.

12 oz bottle. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a medium sized white head. Extremely nice hop character for a wheat beer. Good citrus flavors, pine, grapefruit. I am still amazed about how the beer is so much more hoppy than any wheat beer Iβm used to. Fantastic!

Bottle from a trade with StFun. Pours dark hazy golden color with off white head. Really strong hoppy aroma for a wheat beer. Lots of lemon and grapefruit. Flavor is also very citrusy with grapfruit dominating and some wheat. Medium body with moderate carbonation. Not a typical wheat beer but very good nonetheless. Thanks Josh.

bottle, pours a deep hazy gold, thin white head. Pine resin and citrus hop nose with hints of lemon peel. Nice soft wheat and pale malt body with a bitter lemon and hop finish that is very pale ale in nature. Dry, mildly piney, but with a pronounced hop bite that keeps things refreshing. Nice!

Bottle thanks to belgiumtripel. Pours with a largish off-white head over a nearly clear solid gold body. Aroma of dank, citrus hops, of a DIPA level. Marijuana and wheat. Really dank. Flavor is citrus, wheat and herbal hops. Very nice and drinkable, but not complex or mind blowing. Nearly watery. Medium carbonation, dry finish. Solid beer.

Location: 12 oz bottle from Sahara Mart (Bloomington, IN), 5/15/09
Part of the totally and completely made up"The Geororodanda Beer Sampling Party"
Aroma: Citrusy sweet nose, some light fruit
Appearance: Nice gold/yellow color, hazy, nice lacing
Flavor: Really nice citrus fruit flavor, really hoppy for a wheat
Palate: Nice medium body
Overall Impression: A pretty nice wheat, one of the better ones that I can remember, maybe the best. Why don't more breweries hop up their wheats like this? It really worked!

Pour is a hazy gold with a large white head. Aroma is a a very nice hop especially for a wheat ale. Flavor is some grain and citrus hops but nothing really stands out. A odd beer with the araoms of a pale ale but the flavor of a wheat.

bottle as an extra BA trade. Pours clear copper with thin white head. Aroma is hoppy, citrus and light grains. Taste, hoppy with light citrus / grapefruit notes and palate, wheat. Not a strong beer, but overly enjoyable and complex. Finish leaves a bitter and nice silky touch on the palate.

Bottle from Archer Liquors. Poured a clear orange gold color with a decent fine white head. Nice grapefruit aroma. Surprising. Near medium body with mild carbonation. Flavor is distinctly hoppy. Beautiful, except for a certain graininess between sips. Just an excellent weizen!

12 ounce bottle courtesy of cdumler. Thanks! Pours a light amber color with a small head. Average head retention and lacing. Clear. but with small white particles. Very nutty aroma, reminiscent of sunflower, with some fruity hop notes. Taste is also strongly suggestive of sunflower seeds with pecan, honey and subtle hop notes. Medium bodied.
