Description
Shock Top is a traditional Belgian-Style wheat ale. It was originally created in 2006 as a seasonal brew under the name Spring Heat Spiced Wheat. After collecting gold in ’06 and bronze in ’07 in the Belgian White category at the North American Beer Awards, we decided to brew year-round and switch the name to Shock Top. We couldn’t be happier with our decision. And the best decision you can make is to try some Shock Top for yourself.

Bottle at Kingside, LGA. Hazy orange colour, tiny white head. Sweetness, wheatyness, coriander in the nose. Light to medium-bodied. Sweet, fruity (peach, orange), spicey (coriander) flavour. Same time kind of sticky, not refreshing.

Bottle: Hazy, dark yellow with a small, off-white head. Coriander, ugli fruit scent. Taste is very sweet ugli fruit, wheat malt, orange malt. A little fruit rind bittering....a little soapiness. Not a bad flavour at all....but not very beery.

355ml bottle. Cloudy, orangey golden colour with average, frothy, rapidly diminishing, white head. Quite expressionless aroma, cautious hints of orange zest on rather neutral wheaty basis. Flabby taste, minimally bitter hints of orange zest. Not much freshness, no spiciness - inadequate.

Bottle: Hazy, light yellow-gold with a white head. Aroma is like Sprite....lemon/lime. Taste is about the same with a touch of wheat malt. Not a bad flavour, but definitely more alco-pop than wit.

Pours clear golden with a thick white head. Harsh malt aroma. Tastes like a wheat ale with heavy coriander influences. Palate is dominated by the coriander, not much else to speak of. Not bad.

Draft at Mad Dogs, San Antonio, TX, USA. Pours hazy, lemony gold, with some persistent white foam. Aroma is lemony, spiced. Body is light, with moderate carbonation. Taste is fairly sweet. Finish is kind of short.

Bottle, different label. Good orange nose. Yes, pretty color, sunset orange fer sher. Some weird fruit flavor along with other spices and such. Yes, taste is almost orange, if that. Blood orange I guess? Does seem to have some alky added, but its not over the top, heheh, shock top. Finish is somewhat difficult yeasty backbone and medicine. Not impressed, was expecting something a little different and more civilized.

Ugh, very unpleasant. imagine taking about 400 lbs of grated orange zest and adding it to a keg of otherwise unassuming wheat beer. That's about what this is: a boring wheat beer that is overwhelming perfumed with orange zest. Weird aroma, worse flavor, borderline undrinkable.
