On tap at the Marzoni’s in Allison Park. Here it has been renamed Wildwood Wheat to appeal to the local yocals. Served with a lemon that was promptly removed. Hazy swirling unfiltered pour. Wheat beer appearance and the color of lighter lemon ade. Cannot detect any spices in there and I like that, way too many beers of this genre are overspiced. Tho there is an absence of spices, the olfactory senses a small amount of tartness. No head. This beer is very nice and easy to like. As a wheat lover, I can appreciate this brew. SImple and witbier like. Has a slight mild building bitterness with each sip. Clean tasting with tingling carbonation. Well behaved, with manners. A really good example of what an american wheat can be like. This stuff is so refined and simple it borders on the quality of Hoegaarden. Except for that slight mild bitterness, this stuff is great. One of the better american wheats I’ve ever tasted. Thanks Marzoni. This probably should fall under the witbier style as it blows away most american wheats.

Sampled on draft at the brewery this beer poured a very cloudy pale yellow color with a medium sized white head. The aroma was yeasty, dry and had a noticeable banana element. The flavor was banana, bubblegum and bitter malts with a hint of citrus underneath. There was a long bitter finish.
