Heavenly Body Golden Wheat
Heavenly Body Golden Wheat is based on a Great American Beer Festival award-winning recipe. This American-Style Wheat has more flavor than its light lager cousins.

This heavily oated, mosaic-only IPA softly beckons you to remember where you came from while giving you just enough of a ripe citrus kick to strive for where you want to go. Homestyle is the staple IPA of our brewery and, like almost all of our hoppy beers, focuses on highlighting the fruity & fragrant nuances of hops.
