Commercial Description:
Midnight Wit is a Belgian-style white ale with a medium body and spicy, citrus overtones. The texture is silky, creamy, and refreshingly delightful. Brewed with European Pilsner malt, unmalted wheat, a blend of 5 different spices and then fermented with a classic Belgian yeast strain. Our Brewmaster learned the art of brewing tantalizing and award-winning white beers during his time in Belgium and this beer shows it.

Decent witbier. A bit more grainy and less yeasty than most witbiers I have had. Nice level of spice, not overpowering but noticeable. Light citrus acidity. Not a fantastic beer, but quite pleasant drinking when it’s hot outside.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a clear gold with a moderately thin white head. Light but pleasant aroma of yeast, citrus and a bit of spice. The flavor is lightly sour with yeast, wheat, coriander, lemon and curacao all present. Finish is light and refreshing. I could see myself having one of these on a hot summer day.

12 oz bottle. Hazy lemony yellow with a fizzy white head. Lightly sweet nose, lemongrass and wheat. Flavor is like a Blue Moon crossed with a Wittekerke - not bad, but heavier than expected, body-wise. Eh. OK, I guess.

Weak baby food and DMS smell. Hazy yellow pour with a thin white head. Tastes of peas and beans covering coriander. Clearly compromised and resembling nothing but tainted beer.

Bottle: Poured very light in color, bright golden, even. Not until the bottom of the bottle is out do you get a bit of yeasty swirl. The head is initially fizzy, but generally thin and uninspiring. The aroma is yeasty and fruity, swirly even. This settles into a musty swilly looking thing. This drinks like an American wheat, gristy, yet fruity. Definitely sedimented. If you like your beers with residual yeasty stuff, go for it. (#3434 (cool number), 4/24/2008)
