On tap at Cheval Blanc. The color is a hazy honey with a thin white head. The aroma is of wheat and citrus fruits. The taste is very refreshing in it there is malted wheat, citrus fruits mostly oranges some herbs The beer gave me a good feeling as much for the taste as for the aftertaste.

Hazy yellow pour with a thin white head. Pleasant aroma of herbs, wheat and citrus. Good flavor of citrus, herbs and wheat. The body is light to medium with an oily texture and gentle carbonation. This is a very good witbier.

My Bottom Line:
This spicy Witbier showcases lots of cereals and citrusy spices, as rice peers through its herbal bitterness.

Further Personal Perceptions:
-A veil of foam tops the cloudy blond.
-Orange rinds aplenty work in making the plump body more quenching.
-The mouthfeel is a little bulkier than the usual Witbier, but I like that.
-Carbonation is active, but well calculated with the size of the residual sugars.

On tap at the brewpub.

A lightly hazed blonde wit with a thin white head. Aroma of bananas, allspice, cinnamon bread, citrus, cloves. In mouth, a classy and funky wit with bananas, mint, intense cloves, a bit of chcik pea and basmati rice. Light to medium bodied. On tap at brewpub August 3 2009.
