Commercial Description:
The first thing you'll notice about this Belgian style white ale is the aroma from the orange peel, coriander and chamomile. Unmalted wheat and oats give it a firm milky body and grainy flavor while the yeast contributes a quenching spiciness. Overall an effervescent and refreshing brew.

This one has a really interesting nose, the chamomile is really apparent, with some spicy white pepper and mustard seed notes. Yeasty spice dominates the palate, but this is still very light and refreshing with lively carbonation. Great on a hot day like this.

On tap at the brew pub. Poured a hazy golden-orange color with a frothy white head. Aroma of orange and coriander among other spices. Pretty average wit taste, orange peel, coriander, wheat, and other yeasty spices dominate the taste. Nice, lively carbonation that bites the palate and keeps you coming back for more. It isn’t an out of this world wit, but it is solid and nice on a hot day.

On tap at the brewpub on 10/14/07: Pale golden pour has a wispy-lacing froth of white head. Citrusy coriander nose has a pale malty sweetness and authentic lightly doughy Belgian yeast. Body starts with a refreshing light sweetness and crisp, mild orange and lemon citrus balance. A nice witbier, although it could use a little more body.

Tap @ CooperSmiths: Poured a hazy light pale yellow color with a small white head. Wheaty citrus aroma with a hint of clove. the wheaty flavor had lemons and oranges. Light spice and a hint of banana. Semi-dry with a lively mouthfeel. Light body and very refreshing.
