On tap. Hazy orange body with a creamy white head. Fresh, fruity aroma with citrus. Flavor is fruity, spicy and quite typical with some orange and a sharp bitter finish. A nice one from some of the big one.

My first Belgium white. Had it at Ruby Tuesday’s. Not sure I could really get much aroma out of it, but the taste was pretty good. Very much citrus-orange like to me. Clarity was kinda cloudy like. Not bad.

Draught at local dive bar. Looks nice in an artificial way, like a woman with breast implants. Very thick and very white, I repeat very white head atop a hazy golden body. Fruity aromas. Watery body. Soda pop sweetness becomes more insipid with each sip. A disturbing Franken-bier that tastes and feels like it was conceived and concocted in a laboratory.

Blue moon is the best cheap beer out there. It is an amazing wheat beer and tastes quite good. It doesn’t have nasty after taste and is very available.

A decent Belgian White. Had it on draft at the Holliday Inn 48 street in Denver. A good fruit flavour

Pours a hazy orange color with a big off white head. Aroma is of wheaty malt and citrus fruits, particularly orange. Flavor was a lot frutier than the aroma. Its almost like drinking orange flavored beer. This is my beer of choice at bars with no micro selections

Possibly the best mass-market, widely available beer around. It’s my go-to beer at mediocre restaurants/bars, because it’s usually available. But it really is enjoyable, nice citrus flavor.

Very run of the mill witbier. This was the beginning of the big beer guys (like Coors) attempting to pass of their crap as a craft beer by changing the label. I’d had this before, but after drinking it last night, I decided I should rate it. The aroma had wheat, orange peel, coriander, and was mostly spicy. the appearance was typical to the style, a golden, hazy color with white foam. The flavor was very ordinary for a witbier, but certainly not bad. There are many other witbiers out there I would get first, but I would drink this if there were nothing else.
