Fort Collins Major Toms Pomegranate Wheat

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

pours a solid gold color with good carbonation and a little white head without much lacing. The aroma has a good balance going on between the wheat and the sweet. First you get what promises to be a bit bitter,then followed up the sweet. The taste is sweet wheaty malts with a slight hops finish with some fruit. The mouthfeel is a little slick and is medium bodied with ample carbonation.

Overly nutty which shouldn't stand out in a wheat beer. Light copper color, 1/2" white head and heavy lacing. Dry and mildly sweet. Slight berries and dry wheat try to push past the nuts, but gets drowned out. Very dull from beginning to end.

An orange colored beer with a moderate sized fluffy textured, white head rising above. It has good staying power. Settles eventually into a thick ringlet. Wheaty, nutty, tart nose is repeated more robustly in the tasting with a gentle fruit sweetness. Light-medium bodied with good carbonation.

Pours a fairly standard clear amber with a fairly thick and fluffy white head - typical, but not off-putting. Aroma is yeasty and wheaty with a decided fruity overtone. Flavor is mainly of pomegranate, which I love, and has malty and yeasty undertones. It is slightly sweet and slightly hop-bitter. Texture is smooth and fairly fizzy, and it leaves an edgy, somewhat bitter aftertaste. Not great, but worth a try.

Pours a cloudy gold with a thin white head. Aroma is sweet and wheaty with some fruitiness. Taste is wheaty with a pleasant tart fruity finish. Crisp, easy drinking but maybe a little too sweet to enjoy several in a sitting.

This was the beer I sampled after Russian River Temptation. Talk about unfair. Pours a clear gold color with a touch of amber. Thin white head. The aroma is very malty with bread and cardboard boxes from the basement. The pomegranate really does come out in the flavor with light spices, wheat and caramel. Sweet and too sticky, this one wasn’t easy drinking nor the nice refreshing summer beer I thought it might be. I can’t recommend this one.

Very fruity brew here for sure. I have never really been a fan of flavored wheats but this one was not all that bad. Typical wheaty mouthfeel with fresh berries making it very sweet; similar to the sunset wheat in flavor profile.

Just a picked up a six pack on a whim. Pours a nice golden color with a medium sized white head. Aroma of wheat and citrus as well as hops. The flavor is very wheaty with just a little pomagranite at the end. Wouldn't mind a little more the fruit at the end.

This fruit beer pours a light yellow gold color from a 12oz bottle. Small to medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is fruity and sweet, with some wheat. A light to medium bodied fruit wheat. The malts are wheat and cereal. The hops are slightly spicy. It a fairly standard mild tasting wheat beer, but it has that tartness from the pomegranates. Nice but I wish it had more pomegranate flavor. Crisp and clean. Drinkable. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is crisp and clean. Aftertaste is slightky bitter, with a touch of tartness.
