Pizza Boy Brewing NEON

On a recent visit to Al’s of Hampden, I ordered a glass of Pizza Boy Brewing NEON. This beer is interesting as it was made as half hefeweizen and half double IPA. The beer pours a cloudy golden color with a frothy white head. The aroma consists of pepper, lemon, wheat, earth, and pine. The taste is dry and bitter with lemon and pine on the front end. Grassy hops and peppery spices come out on the finish. The alcohol content is 5.3% ABV. This beer was quite different from the normal, as it was a really hoppy wheat beer. Most wheat beers are light and un-punishing, but this beer really rammed home the hops.
