Bottle. Light yellow / gold pour with a white head and noticeable sediment. Nose of wit, coriander, and mild citrus. Medium to light palate. Taste is wheat, citrus/floral, and some spice. Decent enough.

bockimstein (159) - New Madrid, Missouri, USA - JAN 15, 2012
12 oz. bottle to pint glass. Pours hazy golden with negligible head. Wheat, grass and distinctive but slight smell of satsuma oranges. Interesting. Taste is whit--sweet with lingering sweet as an after taste. Palate is so-so. I can see a couple on a hot afternoon to start a session, but not a full session. Enjoyable.

Bottle thanks to my brother. Hazy light gold body with a bright white head. The nose has some lemons and hints of soap. There is also some bread crust. The taste is very sweet like a lemon lime soda with some wood bark thrown in. There is a hint of clove. Middle of the road wit.

jsmerig (400) - Pennsylvania, USA - NOV 24, 2011
Pours a hazy pale yellow. With a white head. Aroma is orange citrus and hay. Starts sweet with a slight bitter middle. What lingers tastes like orange rinds. Also a bit creamy in the mouthfeel. Not bad.

Sammy (5880) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - NOV 12, 2011
Odd witbier, its in the style, with some citrus flavour. Very foamy with medium yellow body. Spicy lemony aroma. So-so drinkability. Extra in trade.

tronraner (2428) - Walland, Tennessee, USA - NOV 10, 2011
12 oz bottle. Pours murky gold with sturdy white head. The aroma is a little bit grainy, a little bit herbal, has a hint of citrus and a little bit of bready sweetness. Flavor is crackery with a pronounced citrus taste. Clean finish is acidic and a bit herbal. A bit on the simple side, but not bad.

JohnBruns (86) - Cissna Park, Illinois, USA - NOV 7, 2011
Bottle pours a cloudy Yellow with a short head that disappeared quickly. Aroma is light as is the taste that is refreshing. A good wit for the newcomers to the style.
