Sep 29, 2007 Updated: Feb 2, 2008Bottle - Orange amber color, thick white head, little lacing. Has a flavor of citrus and honey. This is a good midwest wheat beer, possibly better then Bells Oberon, however much harder to find on tap outside of the brewery.

Appearance : Hazy amber with smallish top.
Nose : Barnyard wheat a la old Schoune , sour white grape with fruity behind.
Flavour/Palate :Slightly creamy in texture . Mellow fruity accents found at first. Wheat character reminded mostly hidden which did not work to my taste.

Sep 14, 2007 Tap at Barcade. Deep amber beer. Lovely wheaty aroma with a softly toasted maltiness as well. Light munichy sweetness with a bit of lemony citrus as well. Flavour is fairly bready, with a nice sweet toasted malt character and a faintly minerally bitterness. Fairly herbal/floral hop flavour with a lingering wheaty spiciness. A hint of apple on the back. Nice character for an American wheat.

Sep 9, 2007 Bottle. Cloudy brown-orange with a white bubbly head. The aroma is funky - lactic, spicy, followed by apples, bread, and light toffee.
Sweet honey cereal flavour but thinning at times. Some fruit tartness and toffee caramel heft.
I liked this.

Sep 2, 2007 (bottle) slightly hazy orange amber. Faint spice aroma. Flavor is light spices, mild fruit, some malt. Decent enough.

Aug 31, 2007 Draft at Radio Maria in Champaign, IL. Pours a hazy amber orange with a wisp of a white head. Aroma is dominated by sweet orange peel, with some pale wheat malts in the background. Medium-light body with a refreshing texture and average carbonation. Initial flavor of wheat malt and toffee with a lots of orange, apricot, and melon mid plate. Not very spicy for a wit. Nice amount of residual sweetness. Clean and slightly dry finish with a hint of toastiness. This does not taste like a traditional wit, but I enjoyed it anyway.

Aug 30, 2007 Cloudy amber. In spite of honey, I found this on the sour side---which I liked. Medium head and body. No hops.

Aug 29, 2007 Light-hazed mid-amber. Not much of a head fades to white halo. Defined wheat aroma with a sweeter malt character and a whiff of lemon, it made me hope that this was going to be listed as an American Wheat rather than a Witbier as suggested by its name. Fizzy and a little insubstantial. Tart and lemony with a creeping hint of ABV. Not bad, but I quickly moved on to the Porter.
