Looks like a hefe from a bottle. Does have a citrusy bite to it but initially its rather mellow for an IPA. Fresh aroma. As the session continues the bitterness does begin to build and provides a medium bitter finish. Decent co2 thru-out. Not bad for an IPA beer, keeping in mind I really dislike IPA in general, hehehh.

Bottle: Poured a orangeish color with an off white head. Aroma is citrus and wheat. Taste is dull with citrus and wheat, very little hops. This could be a set-up beer to the beginner beer drinker because they might think this is a true IPA (per discussion with drowland).

Bottle. Light wheat and lemon aroma. Hazy straw color, moderate white head with not retention. Weird lemon and wheat flavor. I’d almost describe it as flat if it weren’t for the heavy carbonation.

Bubble gum nose. Cloudy amber, medium yellow head, good lace. Wheat bread with bubble gum and citrus at midpalate and returning to wheat in the finish. It strikes me as an ABIB attempt at Three Floyds Gumball Head. It’s enjoyable, but not nearly as good. Nice transitions and one of ABIB’s better offerings.

Hazy orange-amber pour with a medium creamy white head that diminishes quickly to an outer ring. Short strings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of sweet pumpkin spice and a bit of malt. Light body with flavors of pumpkin and grainy malt. The finish is short and sweet with a pumpkin aftertaste. Slightly above average overall.

12oz bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a hazy golden orange with minimal head. Aroma of wheat and a little citrus hops. Taste is light bitter and lightly sweet. It tastes like they took a decent beer then cut it with water...lots of water. Light bodied with a thin texture. Fizzy carbonation and not much of a finish. Overall, not very good. Not something I would recommend to anyone.

I kinda think there’s some macro bias in here. If this was served blind, it would be getting scores in the 3.0 range and that’s where I’m rating it. Obviously not an IPA but it had a pleasant enough light citric hopping, at about pale ale levels. Flavor similar, crisp and thinned out by the wheat, clean all the way through, fair enough as a lightly hopped wheat ale.

Pour is a hazy orange with a large white head. Aroma is dull wheat notes with some very minimal spice. Flavor is deffinatly a wheat beer base with some peach flavoring showing up toward the end. Like most other raters, there is almost no hop presence in this. This could be considered a fruit beer more than and IPA. It’s drinkable that’s about it.

Bottle @ home. I’m somewhat intrigued by "Wheat IPAs", though it pisses me off when they’re classified as wheat ales and are rated the best wheat ales. I picked this up against my better judgment. Hazy, dark orange appearance with an off white head that dissipates to nothing quickly. There’s some wheat malts, coriander, orange peel, and other citrus notes in the nose. Tangy, rich orange peel, mild coriander, very lightly hopped, wheat malty flavor. Where’s the hops? This is an IPA? I’d classify it as a shit bomb [ale].
