Got a 22 of Westbrook Lichtenhainer to try. I love Westbrook's IPA and the farmhouse ale. The Lichtenhainer is described as a take on the German Weissbeer style - wheaty and light.
This beer is also smoked, and the combination of smoke, sourness and wheat rendered a taste like rancid bacon. There, I said it. Maybe I'm just not a fan of the style, and maybe my palate doesn't appreciate weissbeers, but I couldn't power through this one. Westbrook (@westbrookbeer) makes a lot of great beers, but this one wasn't for me. Now pass me an IPA.
