SUMMER OF WEISSE
Join us all summer long for a seasonal salute to wheat beers. These easy-sipping beers are characterized by a cloudy appearance and a light, refreshing taste, which makes it a popular pour in warmer weather. Weisse (pronounced “Vice”) refers to the classic German style of wheat beer. Stop in for some of the most delightfully complex tastes in the world of beer. Some are spicy, with hints of clove, while others present fruity notes, reminiscent of apples or bananas.

HOUSE BELGIAN
Belgian Wit: An Unfiltered Belgian-style wheat beer. Pale in color and light-bodied yet very complex. A distinct yeast and the use of spices give it a fruity citrus flavor that is very refreshing.
