Last up is the Agave Wheat. Typical 4.2% abv in this one. Not sure if I taste the Salmiana Agave. (not sure what that even is ha ha) I did like this wheat beer though. It seemed to have a good blend of wheat character, sour/citrus/honey taste, and a light body, perfect for summer. Now don't get me wrong this is no Franziskaner or Konig Ludwig Weiss, but definitely one to try. All in all I give this a 3 out of 5!
Next up was the Summer Bright Ale. @ 4.5% abv this is pretty much your typical summer ale(wheat ale). Pours a hazy copper/yellow color. Very light bodied, smooth. I noticed a little citrus taste similar to most wheat ales I have had. Nice wheat aroma, perfect for a hot summer day. This is probably better than Sam Adams Summer Ale (which is too citrusy for me). 3 out of 5 beer chips.

On Wednesday I got some samples of Breckenridge Brewery's beers. Breckenridge is a brewery out of Denver, CO. First up was the Avalanche Amber Ale. Medium copper color and a light bodied beer. This one is definitely for easy drinking @ 5.41% abv. Not too much comes out of this beer. Subtle caramel malt, a little on the sweet side. Not a bad beer, I would get this once in a while for something different. 2 beer chips out of 5.
