Horny Goat Wheat

One of four 16oz cans bought at Johns Grocery in Iowa City, the other were enjoyed on the disc golf course, which made for a nice round. This time it is served in a Chimay chalice. The aroma is light orange, husky wheat, and a touch of spice. At first, the aroma is faint, maybe due to the coldness, but it opens up nicely over time. The taste is sharp wheat, herbal spiciness, and some fairly prominent orange. The flavor is aided by a velvety, but also crisp body, and mild tartness. Seems well attenuated. I am not sure why this beer is rated so low, it is a very drinkable wit.

Had this one canned in Stevens Point, Wisconsin; thanks Slothgar! Hazy, dark yellow pour with a nice thick and foamy off white head, light malty and ctrusy nose, refreshing limey taste, a bit of baked bread, some spice. Light, soft finish. Actually, very good, especially out of a can.

Murky golden pour with virtually no head. Slight citrus aroma with some yeast and coriander. Thin body. Taste has a lot more yeast. More of a malt profile than I would expect from a wit. Needs more citrus bite, honestly it’s a bit bland.

From can : Pours hazy orange with a finger and a half of white head, that has good retention. Nose of sweet fruits, wheat, orange peel, and some spices. Taste is sweet malts and some fruit, also spices and a hint of wheat. Finishes sweet, with a sweet aftertaste. Medium body that finishes think, soft carbonation, smooth mouthfeel.

Bottle. Poured a medium and cloudy golden color with a small sized white head. Aromas of corriander, wheat, and yeast. Tastes of corriander, wheat, and some citrus.
