West Main Wheat
The beer that started Big Grove — an American wheat ale with malty sweetness balanced by a citrus zing and a honey-floral finish. Favors hop character over yeast character, which puts it more in the American than the Bavarian wheat family. West Main Wheat is Big Grove's origin story, still on the year-round list a decade later.
