Not a hoppy lager fan but as they go, this one is pretty good. Pale golden color with a thick head and plenty of lacing. Aroma is nothing special. Some hay and pepper but a bit of sulfur is also present. Clean lager flavor which I fully expected. The wheat adds an interesting aspect that compliments the spice and grass from the hops. Easy drinking lighter beer with a nice creamy texture.

From the Fall 2017 Sampler.

Off whitehead with lace. Color is a fairly clear golden yellow.

Hoppy indeed. I was expecting more of a wheat/hefe for some reason, but this is more like an India Pale Lager. The wheat adds some orange/lemon citrus and spice. Mainly floral and earthy. Some fruity notes. Very drinkable and very tasty. Definitely surprised with this one!
