Review: Brew Brothers Brewery’s Tumblewheat Wheat Ale

Posted: May 10th, 2009 | Author: admin | Filed under: Beer Review, News | No Comments »

beer_thumblewheat

Beer is like a lot of different things, but for the purpose of this review, I’m gonna say it’s like re-runs of your favorite TV show. Everyone has a stable of favorite shows, and if there’s nothing else on to watch, I don’t mind going back to playing a couple of old, but funny episodes of Murphy Brown or Kate & Alley. Like TV, it’s important to have some utility beers on standby in case you find yourself something where there’s nothing around you like. Otherwise, you could end up with the One Tree Hill of beers.

Brew Brothers’ Tumblewheat Wheat Ale is just such a beer. Entirely adequate for sitting at a pub, watching a ball game – and at the same time completely forgettable.

There’s nothing distinctive about Tumblewheat, which I guess means there’s nothing to complain about. But it also means there’s nothing compelling to make me order it again. Which is fine. We need reliable backup beers in our repertoire. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen douchebags act like deer trapped in headlights after they sidle up to a bar that has no Bud Light on tap. “Uh, is Guiness like Bud Light? No, uh, what about Kilkenny…,” and so on.

Like most pints of wheat ale, it’s served with a lemon wedge – and like most of the all the time I ignore it. If I wanted something bubbly and brown with a citrusy aftertaste I’d order a Lemon Pledge and Tonic.

Otherwise, like the sanitation engineer who empties my trash, I’ve got no problem with this beer, but I also probably won’t remember its name.

Shit. I switched analogies midstream. If you’re anal enough to comment about it, you’re in the wrong place.
