COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Boulevard’s summer seasonal is our interpretation of a classic Belgian witbier. ZŌN (Flemish for “sun”) combines the subtle flavors of coriander and orange peel with other traditional ingredients to create a delightful, refreshing summertime brew. 2009 GABF gold medal winner in Belgian-Style Witbier category.

Pours hazy light golden with a foamy off-white head. Aroma of banana, citrus, orange peel, and coriander. Tastes of banana, orange peel, vanilla and wheat. Medium bodied with a thick yeastiness and foamy carbonation. Very tasty wit.

OSLO (1084) - Ames, Iowa, USA - MAR 17, 2008
[Bottle] Pours hazy pale golden with a tiny white head. The aroma is grainy malt, yeast, light orange zest and a little coriander. The taste is the same with the finish being fairly citrusy. Medium mouthfeel. Somewhat short finish. Very drinkable and not bad at all.

Pours golden with small pure whit head. Nose of coriander and orange peel, with hints of yeast. Tastes very citrusy with some banana. I thought the coriander overwhelmed the other subtle flavors of this beer. I did not like it at all. tastes like their unfiltered wheat with some spices and fruit thrown in. I was expecting something much lighter and refreshing. My least favorite Boulevard brew.

It took me two years to love this beer... as I *hated* it the first time I tried it...yet something kept drawing me back... this is the pinnacle of summer refreshment - light, crisp and the anise/corriander is addictive - after you start to like it. If you don’t like it... keep at it every once in a while when it’s hot outside and you have some shade.

Bottle: The aroma is a combination of lemon and grass. It pours a slightly hazy dull yellow with lots of fine sediment and a small white head. The flavor starts with yeast, banana, and faint lemon and finishes with some light grassy bitterness. Light-bodied with lively and somewhat prickly carbonation.
