Devils Backbone Citrus Wheat

◎ Appearance

A pale straw-golden hue, bright and translucent with excellent clarity. A white, pillowy head forms readily and clings to the glass with fine, persistent lacing. High carbonation animates the body visibly throughout the pour and on the palate.

◌ Aroma

Fragrant citrus lift dominates the nose—orange zest and lemon peel rise clearly above a soft, approachable wheat-malt base. Noble hop character is restrained but present, adding a herbal whisper beneath the fruit. Clean fermentation leaves no yeast funk; the overall effect is crisp and inviting rather than assertive.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a light, silky wheat-malt sweetness on entry, followed by a well-defined citrus character that rides through the mid-palate without dominating. Bitterness is gentle at 18 IBU, providing balance and definition rather than any harsh edge. The finish dries cleanly, allowing the wheat beer's creamy texture to harmonize with the crisp hop impression.

◑ Finish

Medium-short and refreshing, with the citrus character fading gracefully into a lean, cereal-grain dryness. A faint creamy texture lingers briefly on the tongue, supporting a lingering herbal hop memory.

Serve at 5–8°C for the best flavour balance and aroma expression.

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
