I chugged this one for a beer group so my review is based of that. Had a nice light golden turbidity, with an aroma of fresh piney hops. It went down very easy. Medium body and the palate was very similar to the nose. Great beer.

Braindead dry hopped. On tap at the Flying Saucer in Fort Worth. Served in an imperial pint style glass, the beer is a hazy darker yellow. There are bits of lacing.

The aroma of C hops and grains

It reminds me a bit of Three Floyd's Gumball Head. It's nicely hopped with citrus and pine laid over a grainy base.

The mouth is medium with very active carbonation.

I liked this take on the style and would have no problem drinking several!

L: appealing golden hue, great lacing, no head.

S: fresh! Lemony and a little sweet.

T: it's a little too bitter towards the end, but the dryness is great when it hits the palate. Just enough of a floral taste to offset it. Definitely does everything it promises, but it's definitely more dry hopped than it is wheaty (reminds me of a wheat IPA.)

F: very full with slight fizziness.

I prefer just regular wheat beers but for what they're trying to do here it's an excellent brew. If you like lingering, bitter finishes this is your beer. But it's definitely more hop than wheat.

This is very good, even compared to gumball head. Good hop flavor, nice body, not super wheaty, for a first brew id say this brewery is doing well. i would def buy this again in 6 pack format.
