2014 Bronze winner and 2013 silver winner of the Great American Beer Festival’s Wheat Beer with Yeast category. Wheatfish combines the best aspects of three major types of beer, Wheatfish is brewed like a German wheat beer, cold-fermented, aged like a lager, & hopped (three separate additions of cascade hops) like an American ale. The wheat contributes a full body & light spiciness. The hops give citrus hints & the finish is crisp & smooth. Low in bitterness & very drinkable.

Bottle from Marcus. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Aroma is spicy and citrus - not very strong. About med body. Flavor is mildly spicy/citrus and has a definite wheat flavor. Better than a lot of wheats. Not really bitter, but decently so. Could be lake beer.

12 oz. bottle at the Roosevelt Lodge restaurant in Yellowstone. Pours a pale, bubbly yellow, with a small, white head. The aroma is lemon cream, straw and dry grass, light banana, and a bit of bread dough. Sweet and grainy, with a mild bitterness that balances nicely. Light body, with an effervescent and crisp mouthfeel. This a wheat forward and nicely yeasty beer. refreshing and simple.
