Beers in the American Wheat style are Americanized versions of the Hefeweizen, displaying more hop and less yeast character than their German cousins. Fat Lizard brews theirs with Chinook and Citra hops, and a Vermont ale yeast. Bright notes of fuzzy peach, lime, melon, wheat and green grape on the nose. These continue in the flavour where they fade to the background while pale malt, melon rind and a hint of white pepper take over. Light bodied, medium carbonation and a low bitter.

On tap at One Pint Pub, pours a cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out bright wheat and some floral notes. Flavour is soft, with dry floral hops and biscuity malt. Floral, soft and wheaty. Nothing special, but nice and fresh.

440ml can from Pien Helsinki. A pearl white head slowly diminishing over a hazy golden body. Spotty lacing. Inviting lemony hops on the nose. Fruity taste of lemon and mango. Mild dry hop bittersweet end. Smooth. Nice. (Hotel room, Helsinki 28.11.2017).
