Snap! You just captured an unfiltered wheat beer full of refreshment and a flash of tart at the finish. Smile-inducing aromas of citrus hops jump from the nose, accompanied by the sweetness of coriander and grains of paradise. Brewed with wheat and pale malt, Snapshot pours a hazy, lemon-yellow with bright-white lacing. But the real enticement is the snap of tart. New Belgium’s affinity for sour beers led to the in-process blending of lactobacillus to pucker up Snapshot’s base. An extra step to acidify and beautify and get this beer ready for its close up.

Bottle. Ok, not best wheat beer I’ve ever had but not bad. Cloudy, golden color with a large quickly disappearing head and a lot of lace. The aroma and taste are a little weak and watery with the typical wheat ale profiles.

Keyaki. Touch dull, wheat, little sweetness, but maybe not enough. Touch of ice cream. Little herbal. Dry. Not sure about it. Second time had a little bit of weird sourness, so score up a touch.

Draft - Light wheat and a touch of sour notes. Cloudy gold with a rich white head. Loght wheat and a touch of citrus. A bit boring.
