Pours pineapple-orange juice-orange, with a 2 finger fine bubbled white head that lasts quite a while but leaves no lacing. Aroma is yeast, bananas, wheat, orange, spice, sweet orange cranberry bread, honey wheat bread. Flavor is lots of yeasty bread rolls, orange juice, spicy hops, and a little nutty note right at the end. Body is pretty thick and sticky for a Wit, maybe not a good thing but it is a little sweeter than most Wit’s I have had too.

12oz bottle from Mariano’s. Pours hazy pale golden yellow with white head. Aromas of wheat, light spice, and coriander. Flavors of wheat, orange, clove, and coriander. Body is a little thin, but this is refreshing.

Not a wit guy so- grain of sand. Pours a clear thin gold with a fizzy white head. Nose and taste are a bit watery. Very well carbed, nice spicy finish. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Poured from the bottle into a 4oz glass to drink. The beer had a cloudy, hazy gold-white color with a small foamy white head with some cling, light lacing, and shorter retention. Its aroma featured a strong yeast component, along with a mixture of lemon and citrus, and a bit of wheat. It taste was a sweet-sour wheat flavor with lighter tastes of lemon and yeast. The beer was thin and dry with low carbonation and a lighter body and mouthfeel. Not one of my favorite styles of beer, but this one was not too bad. Thank you to Eric and Siobhan for the tasting.

Pale yellow with a small head that disappears. The aroma has some wheat and a hint of lemon. The flavor has a touch of lemon and a bit of sweet malt. An ordinary beer at best.

Bottle. Yellow straw with a small fizzy white head. Nose is a light spice, lemongrass, light clove, hay. Flavor is okay, a little on the hoppy side, some cereal notes, light citrus. Pretty good, but drinks a little heavy for the style.

Pours pale straw color with white head. Aromas of orange peel, corriander, and wheat. Corriander and wheat flavors with hints of orange and lemon. On the watery side. Light to medium body with moderate carbonation.

Pours a very pale lemon yellow with light white frothy head. Aroma is lemon and hay. Flavor is a mix of watery lemon and hay and dough. Body is light with a lot of carbonation. not impressive.

Bottle from Total Wine, Sacramento. Pours cloudy golden with a citrus aroma and a thick white head. There is a hearty spiced wheat flavor with a slightly harsh bitter finish.

The smell of this beer had me very excited, nice floral notes with a bit of banana clove, the taste was very dissapointing with an almost grassy taste also not much on the palate. Overall I was not satisfied because usually flying dog is great.

pale yellow. faint but pleasant aroma, pretty true to style, but light on the belgian-iness.
