On tap at the brewery. Pours clear bright pale gold. Cereal, bit of sulfur, bit of stewed veg, lemon, touch of stonefruit. Light with a bit of an acidic harsh finish. Not sure what is American or wheat about this, tastes like a mediocre pale lager to me. The lemon wedge it came with helped.

Amber, vibrant colour and a bit hazy. Aroma is earthy and a bit mushroomy. Earthy, spicy, woody...no fruit but whacky...I like it.
