MARBLE WILDFLOWER WHEAT ALE

Well-rounded golden-hazed moderation loads wildflower honey atop white-peppered citrus tartness and lightly creamed barley-wheat malting. Sourdough yeast picks up flatbread-buttered ‘liquid sopapilla’ pastry sweetness while subtle lemon custard, orange spritzer and banana illusions waver. Corn-sugared maca root niche and floral-perfumed herbal notion caress zesty lemon finish. Serve with orange peel for extra flavor (in similar fashion as hefeweizen).

 

 

BAYOU TECHE LA 31 PASSIONNE

Nebulous passionfruit-infused wheat ale brings vague tropical-fruited tartness to biscuity pale malting, picking up wispy black peppered jalapeno burn to complement light lemon pith bittering and mild orange candied souring. Pulpy passionfruit wisp and evaporative pineapple, guava, plantain, pomegranate and kiwi undertones need bigger push forward to deepen conviction. Musty earthiness, sharp metallic twinge and soapy finish deplete acidic fruitiness.

MOA BREAKFAST ALE

Musty fruited Belgian-styled wheat ale fails to properly unfurl mild morningtime complexities. Desolate candi-sugared cherry frontage and aromatic raspberry wisp intercepted by weak banana bubblegum sugaring. Washed-out watermelon-strawberry-honeydew-kiwi reminder, polite mandarin orange snip and recessive rhubarb-pomegranate nip barely register. By the watery finish, carbolic Seltzer fizz overrides faded tropical flavors. 

ROCK ART VERMONT MAPLE WHEAT ALE

Marginalized autumnal seasonal (brewed with maple syrup) needs better maple sapping, richer pastry-like malting and deeper honeyed wheat penetration. Syrupy sugared sinew sweetens bark-dried cedar-aged rum notch that fades way too fast to rancorous raw-honeyed dry hop astringency. Tinny finish disrupts latent chestnut, almond, pecan and toffee illusions. A nebulous disappointment less effective than Rogue’s similarly styled Voodoo Doughnut Bacon Maple Ale.

BRECKENRIDGE AGAVE WHEAT

Peculiar straw-hazed spiced beer relegates advertised agave flavoring to simple backdrop. Musty orange-dried spoilage and lemon-rotted souring cushioned by gentle resinous hop bittering to blanched white wheat spine. Residual cider sharpness, tart white grape snip, and delicate plantain leafing linger below. Herbal agave influence negated by acidic citric-influenced sour ale finish.

SPEAKEASY WHITE LIGHTNING AMERICAN WHEAT

Refreshing, yet vapid, ivory-yellowed light body retains soft citric effervescence and distant sugared spicing. Sour-candied lemon pith tartness and mild curacao orange wisp pick up floral honeysuckle nuance above wispy white wheat base. In deep recess, white-peppered coriander, cardamom, and caraway dot limey hop fizz. Serve to Corona/ Blue Moon fans as summery session beer alternative.
