Alc. 5.7% ABV. 20 IBU.
Cosmos Brewing, Hugo, MN.
Lightly hazed, bright golden color, huge ivory, long-lasting head.
In the nose: Sweet and spicy. Honey and lemon, for sure. No orange peel? Some coriander, or did the basil replace it? Nice, all the way.
In the mouth: Spice and fruit bombard the palate from the get-go. Big spice, intense fruit, smooth, wheat texture, mouthfeel. Light bodied, refreshing. But this one may be a bit too much on the sweet side for me to make it more than a one-time, or once-in-a-while time thing.
"Brewed wit grains from the geocentric circles of Ackling, CROP FORMATION exhibits characteristics unique to wheat manipulated by alien visitors. Thistle honey thrusts life into a simple and subtle sweetness that buzzes your buds. A suppressed hop profile allows basil to assimilate complexity as the gases collected from the Carbon Nations provide a satiating mouthfeel. Drinkers become beelievers! SAVE SPACE FOR BEER!" and..." A unique wit brew with a twist. Lemon peel, basil, and wildflower honey additions give this beer it's complexity."
Nice of them to give an Earth language description, after dropping that Isaac Asimov masterpiece on us.
