Beer Review: Troegs DreamWeaver Wheat

Serving Type: Bottle

ABV: 4.8 percent

Appearance: Dreamweaver Wheat is a fluorescent gold with a thin white head. The head is fairly weak, but the carbonation is prevalent throughout this beer's body. Even though this is a wheat beer, it's still interesting to look at as it isn't as hazy as most of this style are. It's actually quite translucent. Really cool to gaze at.

Smell: There was a fascinating combination of aromas in this brew. Initially, I got plenty of wheat and grain. A decent amount of each banana, lemon, clove and spice came through clearly after that. Very appetizing.

Taste: The banana and lemon both combine nicely, in terms of fruit content. The wheat in this beer is the most dominating flavor of them all, but what sets this beer apart from some wheat beers is the spice. I think classifying it as something peppery does it more justice. The load of carbonation in this beer mixes perfectly with the peppery sensation in the taste.

Not only does this beer come from one of my favorite breweries, but it's also one of my favorite wheat beers. It's look and flavor is very unique.
