We often hear "Try our famous wings." F’real?? Dudes, we’re from Rochester! A magical land where the river flows backwards and chicken wings double in size. Where a big, bold and saucy Snack deserves an equally tasty brew. A land where we dare you to eat the bread at the bottom of the sauce! Country Shwheat, because it’s 2 am somewhere.

Bottle. Lightly floral ginseng, wheat malt, and orange peel aroma. Cloudy golden yellow with small head. Sweet floral lemon peel and wheat malt flavor. Decent body. No real weizenbock characteristics but it really didn’t claim to be - guess we need an imperial wheat tag.

Bottle: Cloudy gold with a tall, slightly off-white head. Very floral aroma....light wheat. Flavour is dry.....grassy hops, wheat malt. Tastes rather like a very plain wheat beer....plain being the key word. A growing alcohol bitter.... Pretty lackluster.

Bomber pour to shaker. Hazy, light yellow, thick head. Smooth wheat palate. Pretty good, but would be better on a hot summer day.

Sampled on draft at Smokin’ Joe’s this beer poured a dark golden color with a medium sized fluffy white head that lingered and left great lacing. The aroma was sweet and tangy golden fruits. The flavor was sweet, tangy and bready with notes of melon, golden fruits and a boozy presence that grew with each sip. Medium length tangy bread, melon, golden fruits and alcohol finish. Moderately full bodied. The alcohol starts to really distract. Ok.

22 ounce bottle into tulip glass; no bottle dating, but was released recently. Pours lightly hazy and cloudy golden amber color with a 2 finger dense and fluffy white head with awesome retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass. Aromas of lemon zest, orange zest, peach, pineapple, pear, honey, wheat, floral, grass, light pine, bread, and floral earthiness. Very nice aromas with good balance and complexity of malt and hop notes; with good strength. Taste of big lemon zest, orange zest, peach, pineapple, pear, honey, wheat, light pine, floral, grass, bread, and floral earthiness. Light pine bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of citrus zest, peach, pineapple, pear, wheat, honey, light pine, floral, grass, bread, and floral earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice balance and complexity of citrus hops with bread/honey malt balance; with a great hop/malt sweetness balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Medium carbonation and medium-full bodied; with a moderately slick and fairly crisp mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is very well hidden with only a slight warming noticed after the finish. Overall this is a very nice imperial hoppy wheat ale. All around nice balance and complexity of hop and malt flavors; and very smooth to drink. A very enjoyable offering.
