Boulevard Smokestack Series: Wheat Wine

Taking dictation because the Brotha was too lazy to go get his own computer or get his beer log from the car. He owes me.

Review:

Lighter hazy amber color with mondo white head. The nose is a mixture of wheat bear characteristics (orange, coriander, yeasty) and white grapes (a la a chardonnay or pinot grigio). Excellent. I like that.

Carbonation is moderate and the taste is a mix of wheat beer (sans orange and coriander) and white wine. White wine flavor wins out over the wheat beer flavors. Smooth drinkability, probably best served cold. i like it a lot. It's a fantastic mixture of the styles.

4 stars!
