Foley Brothers Ginger Wheat



 www.facebook.com/FoleyBrothersBrewing

A friend of mine just got back from Vermont and supplied me with a few Vermont beers. This is the first one of them I tried and I really have to tell you what a nice beer this one is. Upon opening it there was that nice wheat aroma. I was a little worried that the ginger was going to take away from the wheat flavor but it did not. The ginger was not overpowering at all and it took some of the edge off the wheat flavor. This beer has a nice light flavor and was very enjoyable. It would be a wonderful beer to drink when you out in the sun on a nice summer day.

Anyone try this beer, let me know what you think.

Being wanting to try this beer for a while it is brewed by the
William K Busch Brewing Co. Yes the same Busch that ran Budweiser.  What I found interesting is that they are brewing this beer using Reinheitsgebot, the German Beer Purity Law, which is not used in the beer that made their old company famous.Well now that I've tried it I would say that it not a bad beer. Its a nice light lager, would be something nice to drink on a summer day.

Has anyone else tried this beer what do you think of it?

Bought this beer due to the advertisement that it was an award winning bock.  I do like bock beer and figured I would give it a try. Well I did not find this to be a very good beer. I was looking for a nice full flavored bock and this is just not it. It almost tasted a little flat. 

What do you think of this beer, have you tried it?
