Probably the best Witbier I’ve ever had. He tweaked the recipe recently adding a bit of coriander that gives a nice zing to the taste.

it was great before, but its even BETTER now that he improved the recipe! it has a delicate, almost sweet flavor, but it also has a bit of spiciness to it that rounds it out and makes it delicious.

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.

A very tasty beer!! Almost every batch I ve tasted has been outstanding. Hits of lemon are everywhere, while there is a slight taste of orange.

UPDATED: JUL 11, 2008 On tap at the Bocktown, such a great place! Smells like the lemon scented fruit erasers we used to get in art class! Hints of sourness and lemon grass are also in the aroma, very interesting. Gorgeous hazy wheat or wit appearance, the only thing missing is the muck on the bottom of the bottle, but this is a tap! Spicey mild initial flavor, very friendly, I really like the attitude of this brew. A great example of a wit and this is brewed right in my own back yard, forget about Europe! Gentleman mannerisms, very good tingly carbonation on the back of my throat but not excessive. Refreshingly good beer. That sour smell just keeps kicking on thru the session. I think I can now also detect some grassy of haylike smells in there to! Very enjoyable and fun complexities with an evolution of flavors. I better get a growler of this stuff. Finish is pleasant and easy to like. If you enjoy wit beer you better seek this out. Great overall tasting experience, I think I’ll have another!

From Tap, at brewery, taster size
Poured cloudy yellow, lemon juice like, with a huge frothy white head. Aroma was light and spicy. Flavor was different than other witbiers i’ve had. It had spices, corriander, pepper, lemon which all meshed very well. It had an almost buttery flavor to it. I was very impressed. Smooth, buttery mouthfeel. It was easy to drink and I can’t wait until summer, this will be the perfect brew for the summer heat.

Growler from brewery. Pours a hazy yellow with a big foamy white head. Aromas of citrus (oranges and lemons), coriander, cloves and other spices. Flavor is complex and balanced... similar to aroma with a subtle, dry, belgian quality with hints of bananas and yeast. A delicious and refreshing wit.

Friend’s 1/4 keg. This one packs a punch aromatically and on the palate. Strikes me as some nice spicy, malty juice with some decent citrus backbone. Not too heavy that it shocks the palate, this one is well balanced in that it refreshes but brings a solid flavor profile to the table.

Growler acquired via amazing trade with cpetrone84...THANKS CHRIS!!! Hazy white straw color that produced a lively ivory head that left a web of lacing inside the glass. Lots of banana, spice, lemon zest, coriander, and biscuit. Soft and clean, yet flavorful with a natural fruitiness and a wonderful Belgian influence. Great sessionable brew!!!

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.
