Beer Review: Tall Grass Halcyon Wheat

Apparently the trend is for craft beers to be packaged in cans. Keeps the harmful UV rays out (really, those rays are bad for beer...makes it "skunky") and is cheaper; Tall Grass Brewing out of Manhattan Kansas is ahead of this curve. As most unfiltered wheats do, this one looks kind of hazy. A bit of ginger in there, as well as more hoppiness than I expected. lemon notes, more of the distinctive "wheatiness" than some of the other wheats I've been trying lately. As I work my may to the bottom, I'm getting a little banana, like a dunkelweizen, but just a little. Another fine brew from our neighbors to the south.
