12/17/2023 0 Comments Chronicle pro reviewI’m giving Wheez the Juice 4.5 stars because of its bouquet of fruit flavors, low bitterness in the profile, and creamy mouthfeel. I think I now see why they called it “Wheez the Juice”… I want to put my mouth under a fountain of this beer! The mouthfeel was creamy, light, and refreshing. My palate picked up pineapple juice, apples, oranges, and apricots at varying points with no detectable bitterness in the profile. When I finally stopped inhaling B-52’s Wheez the Juice through my nose, I took my first drink and it was an explosion of fruit flavors. At first glance, you might think it looks more like a hefeweizen. The beer is indeed “hazy AF” and has a straw color to it. The aroma was fruitier than any beer I’ve had previously and smelled of pineapples, apricots, and oranges. When I opened the can and poured B-52’s Wheez the Juice into my glass, I could smell the contents immediately and I would say I was perhaps a foot away from the glass. I am not personally sure of the correlation, but that would be a good question to ask next time I find myself at B-52. The can features a simple label with a shot of Pauly Shore “wheezing the juice” (drinking an ICEE straight from the fountain) in the movie, Encino Man. Shout out to Chris and Tony for doing so! So while I’m usually the one to hit up brewery releases, I was unable to make it out for the can release of B-52’s Wheez the Juice, their “Hazy AF APA (American Pale Ale).” Lucky for me, my colleagues here at Beer Chronicle gifted me a can so I could try it.
