Wheat beers taste better with a fruit garnish. It’s why Blue Moon gets an orange slice. It’s why hefeweizen gets a lemon. But sometimes I’m lazy and want a wheat beer with fruit flavor already added. That’s when I get Tangerine Wheat from Lost Coast Brewery and Café. Tangerine Wheat is a wheat beer with tangerine flavor. Lost Coast is best known for making Great White and Tangerine Wheat is almost like a sequel to Great White. It’s like Great White with tangerine in it. It’s a refreshing and fruity beer. Some people say it tastes like beer with Tang in it. I think those people have no idea what a tangerine tastes like. Maybe they’ve never experienced a tangerine. Either way, the 5% alcohol content is low enough that you can drink these for the entire barbeque and still feel like you can drive home. And the citrus undertones will mask any trace of alcohol. I’m not saying you should drink and drive. I’m saying that Tangerine Wheat is a good choice if you want to.
