12oz single from Mac’s Midtown, Atlanta, GA, USA.
Poured into the Tucher Weizen, 500 mL glass.
Frankly this is a bit odd. It pours more like a macro lager, and lacks a cloudy appearance. It must be filtered?
Nose is a sweetish, corny skunk and this is followed by the taste. It’s not really offensive, but if this was a blind tasting I would never have put this down as a wheat. Essentially this looks, tastes and drinks much like a macro lager. Disappointing in two respects; firstly simply from the point of view of the beer not being very good, but secondly in terms of the advertised style.
Finishes with a SLIGHT dry bitterness but that evaporates almost immediately.
Another, average (or below) Abita offering.
