A lighter, sweeter wheat beer. This has all the qualities of a wheat beer with the twist of agave nectar. Some who like wheat beer and enjoy a lighter, more crisp beer could really enjoy this one.

As one may expect, this tastes like a wheat beer with just a touch of herbal sweetness. Had on a hot day at a local baseball game, I found this beer to be quite enjoyable.

12oz can dated:07/08/16 poured into a bulbous pint glass.
Hazy gold colored body floating a .75 in. whitish head and slight lacing.
Sweet wheat bread, banana, and faint citrus aromas. Flavors are similar with agave sweetness.
Mouthfeel is medium and there is a lingering malt aftertaste.
It doesn't suck.

Tasted in a 16 oz wheat glass from draft at Emil's on May 17, 2017. Look hazy yellow, excellent head retention and spotty lacing. Smell is bread, nut, yeast, cactus and some spice aromas. Taste is bread dough, biscuit malt, fruit and nut flavors. Feel is light in body, smooth and a little dry and bitter in the finish.

Pours a hazy, golden color. 5/4 inch head of an off-white color. Good retention and good lacing. Smells of strong wheat, pale malt, slight sweet malt, hint of earthy'herbal (agave?), and slight hops. Fits the style of an Herbed / Spiced Beer or an American Pale Wheat Ale. Mouth feel is sharp and crisp, with an average carbonation level. Tastes of strong wheat, strong pale malt, slight sweet malt, slight hops, and slight earthy/herbal flavor ( agave?). Overall, good appearance, decent aroma, body, and blend. A pretty solid wheat backbone.

Pours hazy gold with foamy white head, but disappears quickly without much lacing. Smells of a nicely of wheat, yeast and malt. Pleasant on the nose. Tastes solid and sweet for a wheat, but somehow underwhelming. Easy to drink and forget.

look: 3.5 | smell: 2.75 | taste: 2.75 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3
Cloudy bright golden body, soapy white head, mild carbonation visible. Smell is grain and mild hops, faint chalk, faint herbs. The flavor tastes like an adjunct lager with mild guava notes tacked on at the end, but transforms before my very papillae to take on a buttery pizza-herb like flavor, perhaps similar to jasmine. Neither dry nor bitter.
It was drinkable, but there was a train wreck that happened between idea and execution. The guava flavor was a flash in the pan, right before a whole big mess of questionable flavors took over. Let's all just collectively forget this one...

Poured from a 12 ounce bottle into a Shaker pint glass, there is no "best by" date that I can find.
APPEARANCE: pours a hazy, golden color with less than one-finger white head that quickly dissipated until a thin, broken layer of small bubbles remained, there is some lacing on the glass, lighter carbonation.
SMELL: bread, banana and some citrus.
TASTE: the taste follows the nose, initially sweet agave and then banana bread.
PALATE: medium body and lighter carbonation.
OVERALL: this is a very good wheat beer, It's something a little different with the sweet agave, I would recommend to anyone who enjoys the style.

My excitement for this beer was eclipsed by its mediocrity. At the end of the day, there's not even a hint of anything related to tequila; all you have is a very bland wheat beer from an underwhelming brewery.

Lots of sediment/cloudiness from the yellow pour with about 1" of head of the white variety on it. Aroma, I guess this is agave flavor country.
Taste, not much going on, no off flavors. Mouthfeel comes off on that wheat grist tip.
Fruited wheat ale. You know how these go. They have their place, prolly not for the type who reads or writes reviews though.

12-oz bottle into wheat beer glass
A - 2 fingers off-white foam over a murky body of brownish gold, high visible carbonation
S - grain, yeast, citrus-like fruit (that would be the agave)
T - wheat bread, lemon/agave notes, sweetness from the agave
M - smooth, creamy, medium body, medium carbonation
O - It's sweeter and fruitier than your typical wheat beer, fairly average over all, not bad.

Deep yellow color, smattering of bubbles on top. Rich bready malt with plenty of spicy wheat character and a pinch of earthy hops. Couldn't find the agave in here, but I'm interested enough to try a bottle again in the future.

This was poured into a pint glass.
The appearance was a light burnt orange color with a slight transparency about it. Carbonation could be seen rising at a moderate pace. The head was fizzy with a mix between foaminess and bubbles. There was barely any lacing.
The smell started off with sweet agave and sweet wheat. Light citrus and pine also show a little bit of presence.
The taste was mainly sweet through the previously mentioned flavors. A sweet fruity aftertaste runs into the finish.
The mouthfeel sat about a light on the body with a good sessionability about it. The carbonation felt pretty light. This is definitely crushable.
Overall, pretty good stuff, its actually really sweet in the flavor all around but because it maintains a good sessionability, its a crushable one.

12 oz. bottle, no bottled on date present. Finally getting around to trying this one from Breckenridge again.
Poured into a Duvel tulip glass.
A - Pours a cloudy golden orange body. Slightly chill hazed with some sediment visible. About a finger of thin bubbly white head that dies down. Some thin spotty lacing that doesn't really stick. Looks good for what it is.
S - A fairly plain grainy / wheaty, malty / yeasty aroma. A subtle sweetened citrusy effect going on from the agave. Grainy and malty above all else.
T - Taste follows the nose: creamy, grainy, wheaty, malty. Lightly sweet and fruity. The agave is noticeable when you really look for it. A standard wheat ale with some agave sweetness added.
M - Feel is smooth, crisp, & creamy. Easy-drinking, light-bodied, with good carbonation.
Overall, a standard inoffensive wheat ale from Breckenridge. Inoffensive and drinkable.

Pours a golden orange yellow sunburst, balanced with a cloudy, hazy body. Beautiful white head with rings of white lace dancing on the glass as I empty it's contents into my mouth. Very little nose. Lemon, sour biscuit up front, overly carbonated with an acidic slightly sweet finish. I use agave in a few recipes and it's sweet presence lingers on the finish but it is very underwhelming.
I'm very disappointed, I expected a much larger flavor relationship between the wheat and the agave and they both let me down. It looks much nicer than it drinks.
Clean and refreshing, a decent summer beer for a newbie but overall...yawn.

Appearance: very pretty orange/yellow, small/medium head.
Smell: It even smells sweet! A good bit of wheat complimented by citrus. Exactly what you would expect.
Taste: I enjoyed this quite a bit--obviously, it's going to be compared to Blue Moon because of its wheat character and citrus. The agave gives it a sweetness that's on the border of being too much for me, but it's an easy-to-drink, straightforward wheat flavor.
Feel: Smooth, light way to fill your gut. It had a decent amount of carbonation, which kind of added to its upbeat feel. Low-ish alcohol content contributes here.
Overall: I like wheat, but this might be too sweet, which is perfect for after you eat and are in the mood for a treat. I did not miss the coriander found in Blue Moon! Give it a try if you don't mind sweeter beers.

Had on draft in a chilled pint glass.
L- Cloudy, light orange. Decent bit of head but my pour had no lacing (could be the chilled glass?)
S- Sweet wheat and citrus.
T- I found this to be very sweet, it is close to being too sweet for me (similar to blue moon) however it was still very enjoyable. Beside the sweetness, which I assume is from the agave, there is a soft wheat, grainy and bready quality. This helps to smooth out the initial sweetness. There is also a hint of citrus (eventually aided by dropping in my orange garnish)
F- low carbonation, which makes it smooth and creamy, medium body which I think is also aided by the wheat and the agave nectar.
O- Not too much going on here. I think the Agave overshadows any other subtleties that would have come out and it is one of those beer that is aided by dropping the garnish in, however that isn't a huge knock. It knows what it is. An easy drinking, low ABV wheat beer and it fills that role alright.

Cloudy golden beer with a creamy foam. Smells pretty mild. Possible grain. Lightly sweet taste almost hints at chocolate. But it's sort of fruity, faint berry and more grain definitely wheat. Body is medium and a little chalky. Not sure what to make of this. Okay I guess but not one I'd seek out. On tap at old Chicago for cinco de mayo mini tour 2015.

Pours an almost clear deep pumpkin gold. Unbelievably clear for an unfiltered wheat brew. The pour produces 1.5 fingers of frothy, off-white, shortlived head that leaves a slim collar ring & no lacing. Aroma is thin wheat, slightly perfumey & more than a little sweet fruitiness mixed with earth, vegetal & mineral hints. Taste is an almost contradictory potpourri of tangy, sweet, fruity, floral, vegetal & medicinal with a slight toasted malt hint. The sip is tangy/sweet up front with a juicy but mineral finish. Aftertaste starts fruity but transitions to mineral & lightly bitter that rapidly fades to no more than a slight astringency. Mouthfeel is light-medium bodied with moderate carbonation, a light prickle, juciy in the finish with a astringent aftertaste.
