BEER REPORT CARD - Lakefront Brewery - Wisconsinite Summer Weiss - 4.2%
So I was stopping by the liquor store here in Brookings on my way home from work today to decide what beer to evaluate tonight, and came across a brewery that I have not heard of. I know I'm new, but I have not heard of Lakefront Brewery and was interested in trying a beer from Wisconsin with "local ingredients".Brookings is currently in a 4 day heat advisory, so when I saw this was a Summer Weiss I was hoping it would be light but still have a lot of flavor, which sounded good because of how warm it was outside.
When pouring into a glass, it actually looked more clouded than I expected and had good carbonation. A very sweat type of aroma, and on my first sip can definitely get a sweat cider taste. Aside from the cider I don't really get a lot of flavors out of this beer, seems more dull and bland than I had hoped. I can't see myself having more than a six pack of these, but might be good for those people that into the sweat summer type beers. In the end, this is a little more sweat than I like, but it's really hard for me to say that I ever "hate" a beer (very few fall into this category), so I feel it was average overall.
Overall Grade: C
