KCCO White Wheat by Resignation Brewery and Redhook Brewery
Tonight, I am trying the third beer from a collaboration between Redhook Brewery and Resignation Brewery. So far, I have had a Black Lager and a Gold Lager from the collaboration of these two. I am really excited to try the White Wheat because it is the third KCCO beer and is impossible to get outside of Texas. Luckily I had a friend send two bottles to me and I could not be more ecstatic right now. I like wheat beers and have had many but this beer is my white whale. If you do not get the reference it is from Moby Dick, I am curious to see what this beer will taste like since I have been waiting to try it. I do want to thank my friend Angela for sending me this beer and now I have to send you some beers as an exchange. This beer that I am having tonight is called KCCO White Wheat and is the third beer from a collaboration with The Chive, The Chive, who created Resignation Brewery and Redhook Brewery. White Wheat has an alcohol by volume or ABV of 5.0% and an IBU of 14.
White Wheat's appearance, cloudy and golden.
KCCO White Wheat has a tint that looks like orange and gold were combined. There is cloudy or hazy appearance to White Wheat but that is expected since this beer is a wheat beer. The aroma is something that is enticing me and make me want to just drink it all right away, but then I cannot do the review. In the aroma I think the major or most appealing aroma is the orange citrus/zest. It almost as if I am enjoying a Mimosa or Orange Juice, that is how intense this aroma is. There is a honey aroma that tickles my nose when trying to pick out the aromas of this beer. The last aroma that I am picking up is a subtle lemon citrus aroma that blends in with the orange citrus. Just diving into the aroma and I can tell this maybe a refreshing beer. The head or foam of the beer quickly dissipated and was thick as I poured this beer into the glass.
Taste is where I am excited to try KCCO White Wheat. This could make or break my thoughts on this beer, but I am ready for the challenge and curious to see where this White Wheat is headed. I am hoping it is a style a wheat beer that I will enjoy and not something that has too much coriander like some wheat beers do. KCCO White Wheat is an Unfiltered Wheat. Trying the first sip that is something that sticks out to me. The next major taste note that hits me is the orange and lemon citrus as I took another sip. The honey is the last taste that sticks to my palate and makes me want to drink it more.
In terms of mouthfeel this is a light body, in my opinion. KCCO White Wheat is not as heavy as typical wheat beers. Which is probably because in terms of body is more like a Hefeweizen. Off of mouth feel I would say this White Wheat reminds me of Hoegaarden in a sense. For anyone who has not tried it but wants to know what beer this is comparable to.
KCCO WHITE WHEAT
I would recommend this beer to anyone who is looking for a good beer that is not too heavy and something. This is a beer that would help someone beat the heat but not heavy where you can only have one.
Now that I have had KCCO Black Lager, KCCO Gold Lager, and KCCO White Wheat. I think they are all good beers. If I had to pick one to say it was the best out of the three that would be very difficult for me. I love the Black Lager and the White Wheat is very close to tying or going ahead of the Black Lager.
KCCO Beer line as of right now
I can honestly say that I think the Black Lager is an amazing beer and is my favorite beer that is that particular style. I love the Black lager enough to say that I have bought twelve cases of the Black Lager and if given the opportunity I probably do the same with the White Wheat. If I ranked them in order of my favorite to least favorite it would go as followed. White and Black are tied and Gold Lager is my least favorite.
