The Label Speaks
The sunset on America’s West Coast is sublime. No doubt it played a role in inspiring the U.S. West Coast-led craft beer revolution. The label artwork here captures a representative moment of sunset beauty as might be seen from America’s left coast.

Bryan's Comment
Wheat Wine is a beer style emblematic of the craft brewing revolution which began to blaze on the U.S. West Coast in the 1980s. It’s a style offspring of the marriage between American craft brewers’ respect for tradition and their irreverent creativity.

Bryan's Brewing Notes
Wheat Wine is a beer style born on the U.S. West Coast in the 1980s, thought to have originally been brewed at the Rubicon brewery-pub in Sacramento California. It has as its progenitor the British Barely Wine style. A Wheat Wine, generally, is characterized by a rich and hearty complexity that is lightened and made a touch sprite by a predominantly wheat, rather than barley, grain base. It’s a style representative of the irreverent creativity and unrelenting passion that are hallmarks of craft brewing on the West Coast of the United States. Baird West Coast Wheat Wine is crafted in annual homage to the skilled brewing artisans and fearless beer entrepreneurs who have
pioneered craft brewing on America’s great West Coast!
