    When in Vermont, Chasing Rabbits by Burlington Beer Company fits the bill and is quite good. It's readily available as well.

    I also live in Indy. I know North Peak has Vicious which is a wheat IPA, but I haven't had it to say it's good or not.

    A Little Sumpin' Sumpin' is my favorite hoppy Wheat beer but I enjoy Southern Tier Hop Sun too.

    Cheers!

    Fortunate Islands is my favorite by far. Look for a hoppy wheat with Citra and Amarillo.

    You might like Arcadia's Rapunzel Pale Ale. I think Arcadia just recently started distro in Indiana again, so you may be able to easily find it. I just noticed it on tap at the pub last week for the first time this year, so a fresh batch is out now. http://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/454/65078/

    Not nearly as good as the ones you mentioned, but Bell's Oberon, Southern Tier Hop Sun, and Boulevard 80 Acre are the next in line for me.

    I dig Southern Tier's Hop Sun. I also recently enjoyed Adirondack Brewery's "Dirty Blonde", recently renamed to just "Dirty".

    Raging Bitch is a Belgian IPA, not really a hoppy wheat.

    Boulevard 80 acre, only because I have a soft spot for Nelson Hops. I also like 4Hands Contact High - Hoppy Wheat with blood orange zest.

    I'd been looking for something similar to Fortunate Islands that I can get in my area, and the closest I've found so far is Flying Dog's Sweetlife, which I think is only available on draft at this point. It's not quite as good as FI, but it's the only hoppy wheat I've found that's similar in flavor.

    Flying Dog - Raging Bitch
    Rivertowne - Hop Lace
    Weyerbacher - Camelopardalis, if you can find it
