COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The Cracker Cowboys of Florida were colonial-era settlers, often of Scots-Irish descent, who arrived in Florida when Spain traded their territory of La Florida to the English. The term Cracker in Florida usage relates to the whip these "cow hunters" used to herd cattle in Florida’s Palmetto Prairies. Called Quáqueros by the Spanish, these hardy and hard working Cracker Cowboys helped to shape the history of Florida, the nation’s oldest cattle raising state. We brew Florida Cracker White ale with unmalted wheat, orange peel and coriander and then ferment it with a French Saison yeast strain to give it a spicy and dry finish. Perfect for a warm day on the Palmetto Prairie.

12 ounce can. Pours a hazy pale gold with a respectable white head of foam. The aroma has spices, clove, banana, and bready esters. Taste is spicy with nice fruity notes throughout. Really nice wit.

chinchill (580) - South Carolina, USA - MAR 27, 2013
12 oz can poured hazy golden straw with lots of visible carbonation and a towering, durable white head. Aroma: Malty-musty-yeasty with ripe banana and traces of lemon and coriander. Taste: Much better than the aroma (my usual response to witbiers), with more lemon and less banana and yeast. There are hints of bread dough, flowers and orange peel. Tart. Feel: above average amount of carbonation; medium body; close to creamy for style; tart; less dry than expected. Overall: worth trying, particularly if you like this style. Refreshing.

dmac (3166) - Toms River, New Jersey, USA - MAR 21, 2013
12oz can thanks to Pineypower. Poured an ugly pale straw body with a large foamy white head. Aroma is rather nice, corridander, spice, light wet pepper, wheat, wet toast, grassy and a touch of lavender. Watery body with super fizzy carbonation. Flavor of ripe banana, dry toast, dry grass, corridander, lavender and some pepper. Rather nice but carbonation is rather high for the density of the body.

ROGUE (1566) - Newark, Delaware, USA - MAR 20, 2013
12oz can. Pours a very light hazy golden yellow with a thin white head that dissipates very quickly. Smell is malty with notes of citrus, floral and wheat. Taste is light bready malt, hops, citrus, vanilla and light spices. Medium body and carbonation with a slightly drying aspect and a lingering mildly bitter aftertaste.

bierkitty (122) - Elysburg, Pennsylvania, USA - MAR 17, 2013
Cloudy light yellow. Aroma of wheat and Belgian yeasties. Flavor more of the same with some spiciness and a touch of bitter in the finish, Substantial mouth for a wit. Really nice.
