Commercial Description:
An American version of the Belgian style. This unfiltered beer has a striking translucent, golden color with white clouds. Seemingly a contradiction in terms, it has a full body mouth-feel but is surprisingly light to drink. Topped with a hint of citrus, provided by Coriander and a secret blend of Humbolt herbs, this beer is slightly sweet and a delight to drink in any season.

12 oz. bottle on 6/20/08. Hazy yellow, spare white head, lots of bubbles, little lace. Aroma of honey, peach, citrus, and light spice. Light body, lively effervescence, fairly clean palate.

Flavors are all rather subtle, a light sweet entry is followed slowly by just enough soft bitterness and spiciness to result in a barely dry finish. A summer refresher.

12oz. Bottle: Slight aroma of corn and a little citrus. Poured yellow in color with a tiny white head that disappeared immediately. Cloudy. Slightly sparkling. Full of tiny particles. Cloudy piss. Lightly sweet flavor. Tastes of citrus, lemon, lime, and herbs. Soda-like. Light to medium body. Oily texture becomes chalky and dry. Average carbonation. Dry, citrus finish. Not really a Witbier.

Tasted @ the Loast Coast Brewery in Eureka.
Grassy and lemon aroma. Fruity, coriander and malty flavor. Not bad, a bit light.

Bad, Bad, Bad. This beer manged to get "would prefer an MGD" in my notes. Uninspired, poorly executed...Lost Coast has a couple of good ones, this is not one of them.

Draught at The Room, SoFi. Hazy pale golden. Light tropical fruits. Not yeasty or bubble gummy, just mild aromas. Thin and quaffable. Fruity and candy-like qualities like Emergen-C. Pretty boring.

Overall my first impression was White as in belgian, which is not my style. But I got to tasting and drinking and I really liked this one it has mild wheatiness and herbeacous vibes to it. Not bad
