Notes

This beer is a nice segue from hot summer months to the cooler fall days ahead. It was also a good way to use up all of the left over wheat I had hanging around from the summer. It's a nice easy-drinker, bite, but not excessively bitter with subtle spice aroma and gentle cinnamon and clove notes.
