Brewery: Blue Moon Brewing Co in Denver, Colorado Style: Belgian Wit ABV: 5.4% Rate Beer: 29/100 Pour: Light golden yellow with a decent white head that fades out. Not as hazy as you’d expect from a Belgian witbier but heavy candied orange aromas. A smooth body with a slight creaminess and that candied orange comes through on the flavour. Blue Moon doesn’t […]
I’m not a big fan of watermelon flavoured beer and the inclusion of mint and cucumber hasn’t changed this view sadly.
A clear Australian wheat beer is what this is promoted as. Clear and crisp like a lager, it has subtle hints of a traditional European witbier with banana and pepper.
Brewery: Kiuchi Brewery (Hitachino) in Konosu, Naka, Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan Style: White Ale ABV: 5.5% IBUs: 13 Rate Beer: 77/100 Pour: Cloudy yellow colour. Not much head on pour and dissipates quickly Slight taste of nutmeg and orange peel. Feels more like a hefeweizen with wheaty flavours. First time trying Japanese craft beer. Not too bad and is obviously well received on Rate […]
Brewery: Stark Brewing Company, in Bali Indonesia Style: Wheat beer ABV: 5% Rate Beer: 21/100 Pour: Light straw colour with almost zero head This is Bali’s attempt at craft beer and like most things here, a poor knock off of what it could be. It smells like a German witbier. Has some banana tones but more like those sugary banana […]
Brewery: Garage Project, in Wellington, NZ Style: American Wheat Beer ABV: 4.2% Rate Beer: no rating yet on Rate Beer Pour: Bubbly pale yellow with no real head to speak of. This obviously Garage Projects take on that mass megaswill produced beer that emanates from the US with a blue label and rhymes with ‘dud flight’. But they have managed to add […]
Brewery: Green Beacon, in Brisbane QLD Style: American Wheat ABV: 4.9% IBUs: 21 Rate Beer: no ratings yet on Rate Beer Pour: Cloudy yellow pour with light bubbly head that disappears quickly. American wheat beer with a slight citrus flavour. Like a cross between a white ale and a American pale ale. Refreshing flavour on the palette. This is a beer you […]
Brewery: Two Birds, in Spotswood, VIC Style: Wheat beer ABV: 5.2% Rate Beer: 49/100 Pour: Golden yellow colour with no head. Mexican flavour inspired pale wheat beer. There’s subtle hints of corn and coriander. Crisp finish and definitely a beer you could sit on in a session. This is a beer you have with a bowl of corn chips and […]
