Growler. The look is clear, reddish in color, and not much head. The smell is flowers, yeast, and fruit. The taste is yeast, fruits, tart, and more fruits.

On tap at brewpub. Pours a cloudy peach with no head. The aroma is hibiscus and lemon zest. Thin mouthfeel with strong hop flavor and light dry finish. A decent wit from Freetail.

On tap at the brewpub during the most recent bottle release. This was one of seven witbiers on tap. The beer pours a hazy red color with a pink head. Very odd looking beer. The aroma is heavy on the hibiscus with some wheat mixed in. The flavor is also very floral. I get a ton of flowers and hibiscus as well as a lot of sugar and some citrus notes. The beer is very sweet and by the end of the pint glass it gets hard to drink. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

12 oz. brown bottle from Battle of Wits 4 pack. A very nice looking red almost pink beer with a small head. Totally caught me off guard when I poured it as it looks like a fruit beer. It has a nice look. The aroma smells like berries and wheat. Very good fruit scent. The taste is almost like a watered down fruit punch with some wheat. There also is a slight tartness on the tongue with moderate carbonation.

Growler thanks to JKwalking05. Pours a hazy pink color with a pink lacey head. Very manly. Nose is flower petals and chalk. Taste is the same with lots of green and floral notes. Like drinking a flower shop.
