The brewery's menu names only lemongrass. A third party club listing for the same beer under the name Jack Whacker Wheat adds 2-row, Munich and wheat malts and Perle hops, and confirms the lemongrass (Beer of the Month Club). No yeast is named anywhere.
As category context only, the Brewers Association guideline for American-Style Wheat Beer calls for low to medium bitterness, 10 to 35 IBU and 3.5 to 5.6 percent ABV. The published 4.6% ABV and 15 IBU fit inside both ranges.
