Shock Top Wheat IPA is no traditional beer. It’s a unique hybrid that combines the fresh flavor and smoothness of wheat beer with the crisp hop bitterness of an IPA. The result is a beer that is truly like no other.

To serve, pour down the side of the glass until a half inch is left in the bottle. Swirl the remaining brew and pour to produce a rich, thick collar of foam that releases the citrusy Cascade hop aroma.

From a 12 ounce can, this was better than I expected. It is a cloudy straw color with a medium head. The smell is a little faint, but has hints of hops and fruit. The taste is slightly sweet, with a little yeast and fruit. Hops are present, but the bitterness is subdued and it's not what I would call and IPA. Medium in body. It is notable for the wheat, but not the hops. Okay.

Aroma is hoppy and wheaty, with a subtle citrus undertone. Not too bad for a macrobrew creation pretending to be a craft beer. Pours a clear, bubbly, dark amber with a fairly thick pale tan head. Flavor is not as hoppy or wheaty as the aroma promised, but the orange and coriander definitely come out. Texture has about average firmness, not a whole lot of fizz. Overall, just OK, but still palatable.
