Apollo Sneaks In

Another remnant of "summer".. but then again a wheat/saison never goes out of style...


Sixpoint - Apollo  a 5.2% ABV 11 IBU wheat beer.  Hazy golden sun pour, fluffy, lacy head.  The nose is absolutely heavenly!  Huge Belgian influence here, yeast, clove and banana that will straight up make you slap yo mama!  No, seriously though.. the nose is insane!  Tart, bold, citrus.. so good.  Smooth and crisp beer, citrus, bananas and clove on the initial taste.. then a smooth, but tart sweetness comes in and the finish is bubblegum-y with a bit more sweetness, and just a touch of hops.  I seriously cannot describe how much I love this beer...  It's tough to put into words how well-rounded, yet totally stand-out this is..  Ever had a beer and just been like 'holy fuck' on the first sip?  Yep.  Get it next year.
