Brewed in the style of a Belgian Wit. A special blend of coriander, orange zest and unmalted wheat help to make this a remarkably refreshing summer beer.

The aroma is sour with wheat, yeast, barley, sour fruit, straw, and lemon. The appearance is hazy gold with a nice head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is thin but OK for the style. Overall it’s drinkable.

12oz bottle from Beer World (Largo, FL). Pours a clear golden color with a thick, frothy white head that settles quickly but provides lacing on the glass. Lively carbonation. Smells of grass, straw, spice, and yeast. Flavor is initially strongly sour with a few hints of bread and spice toward finish. Generally watery mouthfeel with a quick, uninteresting finish.

Bottle: Pours a light copper color which was clear for being unfiltered. Aroma of wheat, grass and spice I could not discern until I read the description. Decent beer but a little thin. Seems to be lacking in overall flavor. Not my favorite of the style.

Aroma is very citrusy- more lemon than anything else. It reminds me of lemonade, actually. Appearance is light gold and slightly cloudy with a medium head and not too much lace. Slight bitterness on the palate but that’s from the lemon citrus flavor... overall nice!

Clear gold color, fast fading head with no top but fast carbonation raising up the glass. A light honey and lemon aroma with a smigen of hoppiness smell mixed in. A very nice aroma. Peppery flavor that has a citrus zest low malt and a hoppy finish to create a clean taste. Palate is less bubbly than authentic belgiums. A decent American attempt at begium white but nowhere near the outcome of the true masters of the craft.

12oz bottle. Smelled of yeasty bread dough, sour citrus fruits (lemon and orange mostly), and coriander. Poured a cloudy yellow color. Head was thick and white. Light body with minimal fleeting acidity up front that gave way to a delicate sweetness. Lemon, orange, coriander, and wheat flavors. Nice enough wit.

12oz bottle. Light cloudy orange color. Mellow orange and wheat aroma. Very crisp and drinkable, with a little bit of a citrus zest. The coriander also comes through in the initial mouthfeel, until it fades into a creamy finish. Pretty good stuff, nothing exceptional. I’m sure it makes a hell of a session beer around Lakefront.
