COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Our spiced California style Wit is both refreshing and complex. Brewed with wheat, coriander, California orange peel and local orange blossom honey. From the first sip to the last you’ll find subtle flavors of bread, spice, citrus and a thirst quenching orange honey finish.

SD trip: Had some of this too; very boring wheat/wit, served with an orange (as it should be) which helped a little. It was drinkable, mostly since it had very little flavor.

rayOfBeer (568) - El Cerrito, California, USA - JUN 16, 2013
UPDATED: JUN 17, 2013 Tap: yellow with slight haze pour with thin white head. Aroma is honey with orange zest. Flavor is honey sweet with some orange citrusy notes and a very light wheat. Easy to drink but light on spice and wheat flavors.

maekchu (1126) - Hirakata, JAPAN - JUN 7, 2013
Bottle from Yamaichi. Hay, some citrus, light spice. Medium straw, honeyish color, light haze, minimal head. Mild grassy initial / mid brings up some hoppiness and zest. Thin body. Okay. Not a lot of flavor. A bit juicy. The zest seems to fill in for the hops. Little noticeable spice.

pintbypint (2000) - Edmonton, Alberta, CANADA - MAY 12, 2013
650ml brown bottle. Gold pour, hazy. Small sized white cap that fades out quickly and leaves a very thin film on top of the beer. As promised by the beer’s name there is a sweetish orange fruit note to the nose. Taste has wheat, mild spice, orange citrus, yeast. Finishes with yeast, minerals and grains. Medium bodied, good carbonation. Overall too dry for my tastes, and not enough spice, pretty mild example of an already light style.

Bottle. Golden beer with an off-white head. Wheat and light grain aroma with light spice. Wheat and orange flavor with grain and light spice. Medium bodied. Grain and wheat linger with light citrus.

dimenhetfield (2378) - , Florida, USA - APR 27, 2013
12oz bottle poured into glass. This one was meh. The aroma was pretty spot on, full of orange zest, but the flavor didn’t really match it too well. Just sort of blah.

Markm2151 (248) - toledo, USA - APR 22, 2013
Not a whole lot of aroma, but the palate is really cool: citrus fruits but not the acid

johndoughty (3302) - cheslyn hay, West Midlands, ENGLAND - APR 22, 2013
Bottle. Yellow and poured with a small head. Trace of wheat but not a lot of flavour. Pretty bland and a bit dissapointing considering the quality of other beers from this brewery.
