This living beer is Dan’s bold Hopped Wheat creation. You hold the return of Crack’d Wheat the marriage of a sophisticated Bavarian Hefeweiss and an American Pale Ale. Amarillo dry hopping consorts with Wisconsin Red Wheat. Traditional Open Top fermentation cultivates our proprietary Bavarian Weiss yeast in our dedicated Wheat Beer Cellar. Absolutely 100% natural bottle conditioned this is a Living beer.

Expect to pour a thick creamy aromatic head. Savor the fierce onslaught of clove, cinnamon, and citrus to your nose. Cheers to discovery and friend.

Only in Wisconsin!

Bottle split at Scopesters on melt day, from an IP trade, 01/07/15. Clear golden with a decent off white covering. Nose is pale malt, grain, vanilla, light citric peel, bread dough. Taste comprises tangerine, floral notes, vanilla essence, soft bread, melon. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Ok for style but can’t quite fathom the high score this one has attained !

Bottle thanks to Cloin at the Tropical Croydonia tasting. It pours clear gold with a foamy white head. The nose is soft, juicy, grapefruit, lemon rind, soap, peach, wheaten bread and banana. The taste is crisp, bitter, clean, bready, wheat, banana bread, candy, bubblegum and light alcohol. Light-medium body and soft carbonation. Simple, but pretty drinkable stuff.

Thanks to Chris for bringing it over! Nice fresh wheat and hop-nose. The beer starts fresh and nice. Sweetish Weizen notes, no yeast but fresh hops. Sweetish-fresh, nice piney hops. Dryer ending, but still a Kristallweizen dry-hopped. Intense sweetish Weizen-ending with no bitterness.

Bottle: Clear gold with a tall, frothy white head. Citrus, wheat, yeast, banana aroma. Taste is sweet lemon, banana, slightly spiced... Very bright and refreshing....the lively citrus matches nicely with the wheat.....hopped-up, and blended really well. Great stuff.

Bottle. Pours a clear, golden yellow color with a big foamy white head. Aromas of bread, banana, cloves, and citrus hops. Taste is similar with a notable wheat presence. Some really nice grapefruit-like bitterness from the hops. Light body with ample carbonation. Finish is dry with a mild lingering bitterness. Very unique. Very nice.
