Name – Wailua Wheat
Country – United States
Type – American Pale Wheat Ale

Appearance – Pours a pretty clear golden, almost orange, color with a very thin bubbly white head that was gone pretty quickly.

Smell – Really tough to pick up the scents.  There is a slight floral presence and very faint sweet fruit smell but didn’t remind me of passion fruit.

Taste – Slight bit of a fruit taste up front.  I can pick up some passion fruit in there and almost a slight raspberry taste as well as it was a little tart.  Tastes of yeast and wheat in there as expected and a slight spice to it.

My friend Ben asked that I review this as he has become a big fan of it.  I can definitely see that this is a good summer beer.  It is refreshing and light in body.  It reminds me a little bit of Sam Adams Blackberry Witbier.  Not the best wheat I’ve had but definitely not a bad choice for these hot, humid nights.

Overall Grade – C+
