Day 189 Drink: Shock Top Belgian Wheat

Thursday, July 8, 2010

It was 101 degrees in Charlotte today. If that is not wheat beer weather, I'm not sure what is.

Shock Top is an unfiltered Belgian-style wheat ale that is part of the Michelob family produced by Anheuser-Busch InBev.

Shock Top pours a orangish golden color with a respectable head. The nose is slightly fruity. The flavor on this one is a little lighter than most wits you might encounter. You get some orange, hints of spice and some good wheat beer crispness.
