3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
On tap at the Brass Tap in Wesley Chapel, FL pouring hazy deep gold with off white head. The aroma is wheat, a light amount of banana and mild yeasty spices. The taste is smooth with wheat, modest smooth sweet banana, spicy hops and spicy yeast. To midway and the finish the yeast seems to coat the tongue with a soft cushion like sensation creating an even smoother experience.

2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Tap. Light to moderate straw note for the malt, light grass for the hops, moderate cheese smell for the yeast, with hints of apple, wood and rotten fruit. Head is small frothy, white with some spotty lacing and is mostly diminishing. Color is hazy yellow/gold. Flavor starts lightly to moderately acidic, then finishes moderately acidic and lightly bitter. Palate is light to medium, watery with a lively to fizzy carbonation. An okay Witbier, but it does have some off notes and is pretty one dimensional in flavor.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours a foggy pale straw yellow, nose is very fruity, orange peel, passion fruit, taste is grainy, nice wheat body, quite a bit of residual sweetness. Not a typical wit, but a sessionable one.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap at Haus Staudt. Pours a hazy yellowish color with a lasting white head. The aroma is somewhere between a hefeweizen and a witbier, with both banana and orange peel present as well as spices. The flavor is lightly spiced with clove and coriander, orange peel, banana and fruity esters, and a wheaty malt backbone. Decent. Somewhat creamy on the mouthfeel with medium body and average carbonation. This is fine for the style, but not impressive considering it’s from Ballast Point.

Pours up very light orange, almost beige, with almost no head. Smells of alcohol, not very inviting. Taste is very light, watery, and of slight alcohol. Not a fan.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
