Received: A pair of Michelobs
I received a package today containing two new Michelob seasonal/limited releases: Michelob Honey Wheat and Hop Hound Amber Wheat. Both are new to me—in fact, they’re new to everybody: according to the PR letter with the package, they are both part of a "seasonal wheat beer sampler pack launching nationwide on March 2."
The Hop Hound looks the more interesting of the two to me; I’m curious if it’s as hoppy as its name implies.
Oh hey, I just noticed; Michelob now has a seasonal lineup of wheat beers: these two plus Shock Top Belgian White and their Dunkel Weisse. Neat.
Tried a sixer of the Hop Hound last week. It’s not that hoppy at ALL. I think the IBU was around 28.
