    A fantastic results and taste very much as the original.

  2. mr_tommo (verified owner)

    Superb flavour. Not too overpowering which some wheat beers can be for my tastes. Unfortunately my wife likes it too which means putting in more orders.

  3. Daniel D’Arcy (verified owner)

    Fantastic recipe! Liquid summer and very refreshing, head like icecream. Will brew again.

  4. david horstcraft (verified owner)

    My first attempt at a wheat beer. As other have said, it’s not as full on wheat as Euro wheat beers.
    I’m impressed and my friends are very impressed – it has a great taste and mouthfeel.

  5. Jonathan Shaw (verified owner)

    Wasn’t a great fan of this one. It was my first American style wheat beer and perhaps the style is just not for me, but it lacked the aroma I associate with wheat beers and tasted a bit like ‘plain beer’. I managed to rescue it by pouring some grapefruit juice into the keg (be careful if you do this – you need to keep it very cold and monitor for any re-fermentation) which resulted in a pretty tasty brew.
