This bottle thru the courtesy of jjpm74, thanks John! Sweet metallic aroma. Pours slightly hazy with an almost, but not quite orange color. Leans more toward the beigish yellow color. Very strong malt initial hit that fades rapidly to a more enjoyable american wheat flavor. Interesting how the flavors of this develop, first bitter and strong, then increasingly mild. This is with each sip, not during the overall session. As a wheat lover, that initial bitterness is a little difficult for me to absorb. I lean more towards wheats that are not too bitter. Medium tingly carbonation. Even tho this beer has a stronger malty or alky like impact on the first sips, the finish of this brew is mild and well behaved, cannot detect hardly any residual bitterness on the finish. After you take this stuff into your mouth, the bitterness just keeps running to the background and all that is left is a little citrus rind flavor that eventually fades to a satisfying finish. Easy to enjoy once you get over that in your face introduction!
