Bottle thanks to Bu11zeye. Labeled as Millstream’s "Hefe-r-Weissen". Pours with a small white head over a hazy golden body. Aroma of styrofoam, lemon, clove and plastic. Taste is honey, wheat, lemon and vanilla. Fizzy and dry mouthfeel.

Sample at the Millstream Brewhaus in Eastern Iowa airport. The beer is a hazy yellow-gold color with a medium thin bone white head that dissipates steadily. Thin rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of bananas and wheat. Light and clean body with flavors of wheat, banana and mild spices. The finish is wheaty with a mild fruit aftertaste. Run-of-the-mill Hefe overall.

On draught at the Millstream Brewhaus in Eastern Iowa airport. This beer is a clear bright copper color with a medium off-white head that diminishes steadily. Thick rings of lacing. Aroma of citrusy hops and sweet malt. Medium body with flavors of hops, citrus fruit and bready malt. The finish is moderately bitter hops that lingers for a bit. Above average overall.

12oz shorty bottle. Deep burgundy-brown with a big, foamy off-white head. Sweet hop-laced dark malt aroma. As advertised, has a touch more of a malty side than your typical IPA. Earthy, with a solid bitterness that balances out the thick, creamy, almost brown-ale like malt body. Very sessionable stuff while still retaining some quality depth. Dark IPA.

12oz shorty bottle. Cloudy orange-yellow color, lots of CO2 bubbles lead to a thin white head. Brewery sweet malt aroma. I get some wheaty banana in the first taste, not unlike a filtered-down Hefe. There is, however, some noble hopping that balances it out and leaves it just barely in Pilsnerville. The body is certainly thicker than your typical Pils. Fresh and doughy, this is still an enjoyable beer.

A majestic thanks goes out to caneyehavefourbeers, hehheh, for this one! Has a sweeter candy armoa. Orange brown in the bottle without any sediment. Slight haze. Head fades to nothing after a few. Initial taste and impression is way higher than the 4.9% listed here. If it was me, I’d say about 6 perhaps even 7! Somewhat thicker oily viscosity in this baby. Strong and wayward. Props across my tongue like an iron ore laden barge being driven by a tugboat against the flow in the ohio river someplace around beaver county. Wew, a little more personality than I care for in a vienna. Finish is almost medicine in nature. Yowzer, I think i’m gettin dizzy near the end of this bottle. Rude at times on the way down the throat. Some hops in there lurking around on the end. Comes off somewhat like a spice or veggie brew. I’m glad I got to try this unique brew!

12oz bottle. Orange yellow with a massive foamy head. Some serious chunky floaters. The aroma is pleasantly astringent, orange vanilla, not overly sweet. The taste and especially mouthfeel are right on, this is a US Wit that could easily hold it’s own in Belgium. Balanced spices, mellow and effective. Seriously effervescent. Top notch.

Bottle. Pour is a hazy yellow with little head and aromas of lemon and grass. Flavor is a little bit of honey, some grass and lemon in the finish.

12oz shorty bottle picked up on a road trip through Milwaukee. Id have to assume this beer might be a little past it’s prime. Amber-brown color. Patchy, oily head. Sweet aroma, brown sugar? Fruity, easy drinking malt taste. Wow, this is actually quite nice. Balanced and crisp, this is really done right. Malty and rich, while remaining light and medium bodied on the palate. Light amber malt flavors, lots of cream, and some underlying caramel.

Bottle with thanks to Andy. Pours a copper with little head and very little in the nose other than some apple juice and faint hops of some sort or another. Flavor is similar and it seems a little overzealous to call this an IPA.
