500ml glass at the Biera resto-pub - a wheat beer made with Belgian yeast, American hops, and an international malt bill. Wuppppppah!
This beer appears a thick, sludgy dark apricot amber colour, with two fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and wispy off-white head, which leaves some streaky forked lightning lace around the glass as it slowly seeps away.
It smells of grainy wheat malt, phenolic Low Countries yeast, chewed-out bubblegum, muddled exotic fruit notes, mixed peppercorn spice, and further leafy, weedy, and musty floral green hop bitters. The taste is semi-sweet, grainy and doughy wheat malt, a lesser caramel graininess, earthy yeast, a strange dry candied character, some peppy mixed ground pepper dust, and more understated leafy, herbal, and dead grassy verdant hoppiness.
The carbonation is fairly active in its palate-pinging frothiness, the body a solid middleweight, and sort of smooth, as the yeast and hops seem to be on a bit of yahoo bender here. It finishes trending dry, the crackery wheaten backbone fending off a lingering edgy hop and yeast counterpart.
Overall, this is essentially a bridge between an old-school Saison and a new-World hoppy wheat ale - and the offspring is quite enjoyable. Hoppy and yeasty, in equal measures, which doesn't always work, but it surely does right now.
