from notes.

Lightly hazy golden orange with a foamy white head.

Subtle overall, but pleasant wheat notes with very faint cherry notes.

Taste is same as the nose, though the cherry seems to add a light sweetness more than a definite cherry note.

Crisp, refreshing medium-light body.

Very easy drinking, refreshing beer with subtle, yet enjoyable flavors.

Poured from tap into pint glass at Nano-brew festival PDX.

I am a fan of lighter brews (4.3% abv on this one). But this beer didn't live up to my expectations.

Poured a good hue with light head and little lace. Hazy in appearance (wheat ale ya know). On the nose I get very, very light aromas of wheat, citrus, and not much else. On the palate the beer is straightforward and simple with more wheat, mild yeast, not really much else. I read that this was refermented with cherries but I never really found them in the aroma or flavor. I had three friends and we all concurred.

I appreciate the light style, but it really is simple and straightforward.

Poured a rich straw-gold into a pint glass with a finger of bright white head. Very nice aroma with honey, wheat, and cherry.

Moderate carbonation and a light (bordering on thin), creamy mouthfeel. Bread up front with a touch of honey and barely a hint of the cherry from the nose.

Nice refreshing wheat beer character, and the touch of cherry aroma keeps things interesting. A nice girl beer indeed. "Strong Enough for a Man. But Made for a Woman."

From this new brewery, Girl Beer is a wheat ale with some cherries added in the secondary fermentation. Served in straight pint glass. Poured a dark golden amber with about an inch of white head that had good retention and moderate lacing.

The aroma is nice crisp wheat, with a gentle scent of cherries in the background. The flavor is more evenly split between the wheat and the cherries.

The body is light and crisp, with a touch of sweetness in the background. Drinkability is excellent, especially during the warmer weather. This brewery is new and small, I think you'll being hearing more of them soon. Worth trying when you see it.
