I love cloudy wheat beer. So this fine wit by Captured by Porches had a guaranteed plus going for it. And it didn’t disappoint. Cloudy, light, and vaguely fruity. This was an awesome beer paired with Costco tilapia.
To this point, I have liked every beer this brewery has put out. Is it possible? Can a local small brewery have a perfect Frosty record? I, for one, am excited to find out.
Although it certainly isn’t a formal award, I would like to give the “2010 Worlds Best Hefeweizen” award to the oddly named Captured By Porches.
I like Hefeweizens, but they were never a beer I actually loved until I came across this brew with the fun hinged bottle. Smooth, wheaty, fruity, and yummy in a way that so many other breweries just seem to miss, I just can’t say enough good things about this oddly named beer.
Word of warning though, make sure to let the bottle air out before you pour it. Otherwise your first glass will end up looking like this:

Thanks! I have a special place in my heart for that clasp bottle top style too.
