Commercial Description:
The earliest documented evidence of the East End Brewing’s East End Witte dates all the way back to November of 2004, much like the brewery itself. Classically styled, this Belgian “white beer” is layered with week upon week of long standing brewing tradition, history, experience, and craftsmanship - brought to you, fresh from the brewery by the brewer himself. (No, he’s not your server, but he was definitely in here recently with a keg.) Taste the new tradition for yourself.

On tap. Poured a deeper golden color with a smaller sized white head. Aromas of wheat, citrus, light bananas, and some spices. Weaker aromas. Tastes of wheatiness, spices, and citrus. Lacing left on the glass.

Draft at Capone’s. I have no problem going on the record and stating that this is by far the finest witbier I have ever quaffed. The pour gives a fluffy, 1-finger white head that rests like a cloud on top of the body of the beer, which is a hazy, lemon pulpy gold color. The aroma is huge fruit, hops, spices, clove, coriander, banana, peaches in syrup, lemon, orange. Great fruity aroma with just enough clove and peppery notes, plus a Saazy hop presence. The taste is spicy, clovey, pale malty, and peachy up front, giving way to that Saazy hop presence, some yeasty notes, and a finishing burst of lemon, orange, and limey citrus. I love this beer.

Growler courtesy of lukin013. Pours copper with a nice rocky white head. Smells of bananas, coriander, citrus and some dough. Tastes of sweet malt, some pepper, hints of honey and dry. Decent.

On draught at State College 8th Annual Festival. Nice spicy grassy Belgian wit aroma. Spice and pepper, lemon oil. Fruity with a farmhouse musky kick. Pale lemon juice appearance, cloudy with thin white head. Light bodied with mild carbonation. Starts with lemon and spice. Mild wheat flavor. Good spiciness, with coriander and pepper. Great bitter finish, light chalkiness, with light bitter after. A very nice witbier.

Draft @ Map Room in Pittsburgh. Pours a hazy, medium golden color; white head with good retention and fine-bubbled lacing. Good, clear amounts of coriander, orange peel, and Belgian sugars; solid witte nose. Lively carbonation. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: Belgian sugars, coriander, and soft oranges and spicing; nicely toasted, crisp, and lively texture; very solid witte. Medium finish: coriander, lightly toasted malts, and Belgian sugars; dry, toasty.
