As Icon Green rides off into the sunset, Icon Gold returns - this time as Mandarina Wheat, a hop forward and refreshing ale. It has a light pleasant American wheat beer base that shows off the Mandarina hop, an experimental German hop variety with orange notes on the nose, and a pronounced grapefruit flavor in the taste.
This golden slightly hazy beer has a nice creamy head with a lightly fruity aroma. The taste starts with a light hoppy bitter that carries through to the finish although never coming on too strong. The wheat malt provides a soft body that complements the hops while remaining light. The beer is highly refreshing with a nice hop finish that makes you want another sip.

You can find Icon Gold in four packs at your favorite store and on tap at bars and restaurants around town. On Thursday, September 18, Henry's Tavern in Plano will be tapping theirs, and there might just be some cool Saint Arnold glassware there for you starting at 7:00 PM.
