Boulevard Zon:
Greetings one and all and welcome to yet another wheat beer review.  I think after these are done, I’m taking a step back from wheat beers.  They used to be my favorite type of beer but in this beer challenge I’ve found them to be really run of the mill type brews with little variety in their taste and look.  Today’s beer, Boulevard Brewing’s Zon is another example of your typical witbier and while it’s a good beer, it’s nothing special.  The beer pours a very hazy blonde color with a very thin bright white head and a nose of citrus and banana.  The taste is very similar to the nose throughout though it does have a strong wheat flavor that moves the citrus and banana flavors to a more secondary role.  The aftertaste is strong in wheat and malt though I could detect some hops in there though they were sneaky little devils and weren’t that noticeable at first.  This beer reminds me a lot of Paulaner’s Hefeweizen brew so it’s not a bad beer, just another wheat.
