Admirable fleshy-headed golden-hued moderate-bodied half-wheat with sinewy yeast sediment propelled by creamy banana butterscotch charm and lacy eclair froth. Lemony floral hop tingle and expansive clove-coriander spicing delicately caress candi-sugared honeyed wheat base. An undeniable world-class beer.

GREAT DIVIDE WHITEWATER WHEAT ALE
Crisp pale-clouded (and ultimately unassuming) moderate body neither as overtly sweet nor as heavily carbonated as more compelling banana-clove-influenced wheat rivals. Sour yeast consumes lemony grapefruit-orange wisp to doughy white-breaded spine. Slight metallic tinniness hampers washed-out finish.

Mild citric-spiced summer seasonal places banana leaf waft above lemony hop fizz. Thrifty cereal-grained cracked wheat spine fortifies starchy plantain gambit, green banana continuance, and floral coriander-clove easement. Cotton candied finish picks up distant apple-pear nuance to counter impeding lemon sourness.

Extremely tart lemon juice frontage sags to sharp cider bittering. Sour grapefruit, unripe orange, and blanched banana-kiwi diminish below unexpected lemongrass proclivity and musty barnyard waft. Faint clove spicing barely sweetens quinine-watered backdrop.
