Indeed Shenanigans Summer Ale

This 5.0% ABV summer ale is from the Indeed Brewing Company of Minneapolis, Minnesota. They, like several other new brewers, are located in Northeast Minneapolis. They are a member of 1% for the planet, a global alliance of businesses that donate one percent of their gross revenue to organizations that help preserve and restore the natural environment. This beer is brewed using Sorachi Ace hops, locally malted red wheat, and regionally produced honey.

The beer pours honey golden and orange in color, somewhat hazy. There is a short head of creamy off-white foam. The aroma is tangy, citrus, a bit of tropical fruit, mostly passion fruit, toasted wheat and a touch of honey. The taste is an interesting meld of tangy citrus, toasted wheat and honey. The interplay of the ingredients is really unique and tasty. It is medium bodied, and enough carbonation to be crisp without being too much.
