Choc 1919

Krebs Brewing Co.
United States·American Wheat Ale
Tap to rate

Choc Beer Company's flagship pale wheat — named 1919 for the year Pete began perfecting his version of the Choctaw tribe's recipe. Light body, extra-clean finish, quiet fruit character riding on the wheat backbone. Still in production over a century later, packaged as the brewery's core year-round beer under the Choc marque.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with clean wheat grain and subtle bready notes, underpinned by a quiet fruity character. Delicate floral and herbal notes emerge from noble hop varieties, contributing gentle spice without assertiveness. The overall impression is restrained and approachable, with no harsh or oxidative qualities.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with light, smooth wheat malt and an understated bready sweetness that carries through the mid-palate. Minimal bitterness (14 IBU) allows the grain character to remain the focus, while subtle fruity esters add dimension without complexity. The finish is remarkably clean, with no cloying sweetness or sharp edges.
