Wise Man Brewing Not A Role Model

What the brewers say

“Hefty amounts of wheat and characterful malts meld with the signature weizen yeast to provide a rogue’s bounty.”

What our panel thought

“Muted malt character, as if beneath a weighted blanket. Murky dark amber color. Slight toast astringency in the middle, lightly malty with a muddled medium-dry finish. Tastes a little long in the tooth or under a blanket of oxidation.”

What our editors thought

“Toasty bread nose with just a bit of spice, rather demure. Light pepper, burnt bread crust, and soft tropical-fruit notes swirl in the sip with a pleasant palate-clearing spice.”

REVIEWS FOR YOU >

Liquid Mechanics Brewing Company Hefeweizen

“Banana and bubblegum esters complement the cracker malt aromatics. Clove notes emerge in the flavor to balance the malty sweetness. Bready notes in the flavor are very dough-like and smooth, not grainy. A bit of abrupt tart acidity in the finish.”

Wektenburger Kloster Hefeweisbier

“This beer pours beautifully with a billowing white head and a hazy straw color. The aroma is light on fruity esters and clove, while showing woody and herbal hops aroma. Tart wheat flavor in the initial sip, with subtle hefe character. A sweet, filling beer.”

Wise Man Brewing Living For The Moment

“Mild, smooth milk-chocolate aroma. Toasted dark-crust bread on the initial sip. Smooth, malty mouthfeel suggests white bread drizzled with caramel and candy sugar. A punch of sweetness adds complexity but limits the drinkability. Light and unpretentious. Finishes clean and well-rounded.”
