Listed as Pyramid Amber Ale at the Ale House inside the Oakland Airport (on Tap). Not really appealing to drink. Pours a murky/muddy brown color with a small, off-white head. Aroma of wheat and amber/caramel malts. Taste is a nutty wheat beer with a bit of metal on the finish. Watery and fizzy.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy orange golden color with a small white head. The aroma is very fruity and a light malt. Decent lacing on the glass. The taste is a light sweet malt with a fruity finish. A decent wheat ale from Pyramid

bottle - Pours light amber with a thin head and a mild, yeast laden aroma. The flavor is somewhat sweet and yeasty. Light bodied and not too watery, this wheat beer goes down smooth and refreshing. It’s simple and not bad at all, but could certainly be better.

Draft at McTarnahan’s. Creamy malt aroma with hints of light fruit. Hazy deep amber color with a light creamy beige head. Light carbonation. Starts with stone fruit, transitions to caramel malts. Finishes with touches of banana (finally), a bit of unripe fruit, and light caramel. Not a hint of bitter, just malt, and some citrusy sour notes at the back of the mouth. Went very well with the Scotch Pie.

Bottle. Wheat and rock candy aroma. Cloudy orange-brown color with small head. Lightly sweet and tangy wheat flavor with orange and clove tones. Actually one of the better American wheats.

Pour is a bright red with a small white head. Aroma is deffinatly caramel with a touch of toffee. Flavor is weaker that the aroma but you still get lots of caramel with some citrus in there. A hard to find brew by this brewer but worth the look.

Dark copper colored ale with a decent sized head. Tastes of malts, caramel, and a bit of citrus. Wasn’t as smooth as I had expected, sort of thick. Average at best.

This beer is a cloudy dark amber color (looks like a Barley Wine) with a medium thin light tan head. Aroma of toasted malt and a bit of spice. Light-bodied and carbonated pretty well. Malt, wheat and tart fruit flavors, none really asserting themselves. The finish is slick and wheaty. Overall this isn’t very bad and I always enjoy different takes on styles. In that respect this is decent but it is still only slightly above average.
