Tepid honey essence never fully realized; cloying nature annoys; clean water texture deteriorates and unassuming 5.2% alcohol content wavers. Plus, sweet malt finish subsides too quickly.

Enigmatic winter-seasoned braggot-mead combination pairs enticing honeyed heather-jasmine sweetness with less expressive orange-peeled peach-tangerine tang. Temporal herbal-spiced chamomile tea bitterness and withered grassy bark-twig dryness counter maple-sapped malted wheat spine. Off-putting vegetal acridity and dank metallic sear nearly ruin lemony white wine bid.

Off-dry golden-hazed wheat ale retains pallid honeyed wheat base too frail to lift slack herbal spicing, soiled vegetal nature, and butterscotch candied nicety.

Be forewarned! Disposable rust copper-hued tea-scented sludge truly sucks. Murky cocoa lament and dried prune sterility given dirty water flatulence. Hasty unripe orange and sour apple hints dry up. My friend Bob shot the five bottles leftover in his backyard.

Arguably the best macro brew marketed in the States, bringing forth a delightfully moderate Belgian-styled yeast strain that’s undeniably indelible and tantalizingly idiosyncratic. Bright citrus nose snuggles delicate coriander-spiced lemon and orange peel spritz, assuring hop-spiced ale its ephemeral quality. Lilting honeyed yeast sweetness may lack syrupy thickness, but tart white-wined green grape esters prove ample above wispy wheat spine. Warning: inferior canned version sucks shit – a phenolic untasteful mess with no discernible original flavor.

Moderately bitter straw-hued autumnal harvester exudes freshly cut wheat chaff palate and mowed grass backdrop, finishing soapier and flatter than most in its class. Though lacking richness, tangy orange rind spell woos subdued grassy hop wisp. Serve with lemon wedge. Mix with pineapple juice for ‘Maui Wowie.’

Amiable gold-hazed moderate-bodied cereal-grained honeyed wheat ale embraces bittersweet banana-clove convoy and vanilla-marshmallow escort. Prickly peppered hop bitterness counters candied butterscotch sweetness, biscuit-y follow-up, and citrus reminder.

Lacking sufficient wheat essence, pale medium body relies instead on moderate herbal-spiced citric-berry austerity. Bittersweet fruit tang, hop-charred maple stead and sour nutty bottom receive fresh watered crisping. Not as aggressive as better, more refined wheat ales.

Muffled pale malt indifference, bitter raw honey remnant, and sour lemon murk lack distinction.

Carbolic pale-hued buttery-scented medium body stays creamy against rain-watered mineral grain tide. Polite peated wheat finish whisked away by engagingly smooth hop bitterness.

Coming across like a moderate dry-bodied raw-grained harvest ale, its piney-hopped grapefruit rind and lemon peel bittering override engaging rye-wheat slip and tingly mango-peach-apricot nicety. Seductive pale malt reflux disguises reductive floral stint and white pepper spicing.

Wonderful peach-y amber hued paragon crosses ‘voluptuous’ barleywine traits with tart American wheat ale distinctions. Abrupt biscuit-y wheat sweetness illuminated by apricot, orange rind, and grapefruit bitterness before resplendent butterscotch resilience thickens impending honeyed malt stickiness. Lingering spiced hop luxuriance prickles savory fruity tang. Simply impeccable.
