Flying Dog In Heat Wheat: 22

Taste: 7 Finish: 7 Visual: 4 Aroma: 4
Total: 22

Well, I certainly like the label where it tells you not to put lemon in it. A good hefe doesn't need it. Visually it's a slightly cloudy and golden color. The aroma is of wheat and a bit of lemon.

Upfront through the middle is a nice but mild tartness of lemon with a hint of malt. It sweetens up a bit at the back with honey. It finishes with a bit of clove and some hops. The finish pulls all those flavors together and leaves the tongue sweet but clean.

A really good wheat beer. I would have liked a bit more lemon or orange. But otherwise solid.
