Millstream Hoppy-Feaster Wit IP Eah?

The Millstream Brewing Company is in Amana, Iowa and has been brewing since the mid-1980's. This is part of their Brewmaster's Extreme Series. Awwww, look at the cute little bunny...let's drink him.

The beer pours honey golden in color, a tad hazy. There is nearly an inch of thick white foamy head. The aroma is both hoppy and yeasty, fruity, tangy, and quite floral, with some toasted wheat beneath. The taste follows the aromas, orange, citrus, flowers, tangy, a touch soapy, with a moderate bitterness which fights a fledgling sweetness. There is a light sweet thickness on the mouthfeel, juxtaposed by some moderately heavy carbonation. Tasty, interesting, but just not quite all the way there. Still, it is worth a try if you find it.
