This came from State Line Liquors. $4.99 for the 22oz bottle.
Like most, I have very little experience with Wheatwines, and the only one I recall from the reccent past being Harpoon/The Bros. Triticus – this seemed very different.
A very still, viscous orange body with no head or lace but some nice alcohol legs in the wine tradition.
Big solvent alcohol in the nose. The taste smooths out a little, but not a great deal.
Has the alcohol edge that you might expect from an American Barleywine, but this is sweeter and certainly significantly less hoppy.
A bit difficult to get down.
