Hello beer lovers and welcome to another edition of the
NorCal Beer Blog's brew review.
Tonight’s featured beer is Yellowstone Valley Brewing
Company Huckle-Weizen.
Commercial description: “The Huckleberry Wheat is bear food
in a bottle! Most other fruit beers have such a tart snap that you can't taste
the beer. The Huckle-Weizen is BEER with just enough huckleberry to make you
yearn for the wilderness!”
Let’s get started!
Appearance: Pours
a pale orange color with nice white head and slight lacing.
Aroma: Sweet
huckleberry, floral hops and cereal malts.
Taste: Sweet and
tangy huckleberries upfront followed by grainy malts, slight hop bitterness and
slightly wheaty and sour finish.
Overall: A good
summer beer, I’d certainly drink another Yellowstone Valley Brewing Company
Huckle-Weizen if in the area under the right weather conditions. If you’re a fan of fruit beers this semi-sourish
5.3% offering is worth a shot. A bit fruity sweet, but I expected it and
wouldn’t knock it for that reason.
Cheers!
Mark Harvey
