Wheat Beer is a pale, unfiltered, and light-bodied beer. Strissel Spalt hops from the Alsace region of France are used to create its very refreshing and smooth character.

Another wheat, refreshing on a warm night. Golden, slightly cloudy body with light sediment. Thin white head quickly dissipates. Aroma is lightly hoppy. I found this wheat to be a bit on the tangy side, with a nice hint of lemon, but otherwise unspectacular. A refreshing choice if there are no better alternatives.

Rerate: Cloudy yellow color (if you swirl the sediment in). Crisp and somewhat citrusy (lemon) with some body, and more flavor (mostly a zesty maltiness) than most clean American wheats. But still, as a clean American Wheat, it is somewhat bland, and lacks distinction.

Wow i can never find this beer, the two times ive had it, it has been an absolute pleasure. Maybe could use a bit more flavor. Goes down easy though, and has a great wheat taste. Pours with a rich golden yellow color, and has a low level of carbonation which was a plus. Rerate. After trying more wheats, this one just dosent impart enough flavor. It is too dry and could use more flavor, though I guess it's not trying to be a German wheat
