Pour Hop Sun Summer Wheat Beer into a pint glass, give it a long whiff and you’ll realize that this isn’t your average wheat beer. Filtered to a golden clarity and dry-hopped to perfection, Hop Sun is a fantastic session ale in which flavors of wheat, barley and hops co-mingle to a refreshing and zesty conclusion. Hints of lemon and sweet malts waft to the fore as a touch of bitterness contributes to Hop Sun’s bright finish. Enjoy Hop Sun all summer long as a perfect balance to your outdoor recreation. Summer never tasted so good.

On tap at Schouskjelleren. Pale golden colour, moderate white head, nice lacing. Very moderate aroma, some fruit, hints of honey. Soft mouthfeel. Pleasant smooth flavour of fruity hops, a moderate grapefruity bitterness in the finish. Easy drinking and refreshing.

Refrigerated bottle poured into a weizen glass. Pours clear golden with small white head that dissapates quickly. Little lacing, medium/low carbonation, and slightly sticky texture. Taste is balanced wheat, some lemon, and finishes zesty slightly bitter hops. This is a good outdoor summer beer.

Bottle @ home. Clear golden color, nice head. Smell fresh and citrussy. Taste hops and lemon. Not really special but very nice on a hot summer day out on the terrace.

Draught at Bashamichi Taproom. Clear gold with a nice head. Aroma of wheat and citrus. Somewhat thin malt flavor, pretty decently hopped, with lemon. Not very exciting overall. Decent summer refresher for sure, with adequately bitter hop finish.

12 oz. bottle, pours somewhat hazy yellow with a small white head. Aroma of hay, cereal, wheat and light citrus hops. Flavour is quite light / mild - wheat, cereal malts and light pilsner-like hops. Refreshing, but pretty uneventful.
