Attractive 12 oz single from Mac’s as part of the $6.99 mixed sixer. Glad to pick this one up as a single, as I didn’t really want a full complement. Attractive Blue & Yellow pastel label.
Absolute golden clarity on the pour with a nice head. Virtually no lace. No hint of wheat. A bit of a strange bitter, grapefruit twang in the nose. Mildly chemical.
This reminds me so much of an English IPA. Very mild hop character, but full of layers of flavorful malt. Very tasty.
Not quite sure why, or even IF, this should be characterized as a Pale Wheat, in fact I might even characterize it AS an English IPA, but it’s bitterness is not quite there. Lovely balance, a very well crafted beer.
Nice. Easy Summer drinking, but no a typical, super-light Summer beer that sometimes get produced in the name of the season.
