Commercial Description:
Celis White has been revived by Michigan Brewing Company with the blessing of its founder and his daughter, Christine Celis. The original Celis White, brewed in Austin, TX by Pierre Celis during the early and mid 1990's, ceased production when Mr. Celis closed his Austin microbrewery and moved to Belgium.

Hazy yellow, quite small white head. Banana aroma, quite fresh with some banana notes. Wheat flavor, some dough, quite weak citric notes. Dry hoppy finish.

Bottles @ 2005 Bacardi Party on Mackinac Island. This wheat had a very nice aroma of oranges and other fruits. The palate and flavor were light, but enjoyable on a summer afternoon.

Pale, barely hazy golden; small, white, fizzy head becomes a tiny ring. Aroma of wheat, citrus, yeast, and cloves. Flavor similar. Thin; medium carbonation; somewhat frothy and somewhat fizzy. Good for the style, but I’m not a fan of the style.

I bought this beer just looking for a good wheat beer. I’m very content with it. It had the color I expected, and a nice citrus flavor.

As expected, this poured to a hazy cloudy golden color with thin white head, that dissipated quickly and left little or no lacing. Aroma was a veryu pleasant mix of oranges, cookie dough and and a hint of clove spice. Flavor followed true to form with more of the clove-orange mix. At 4.25%, the alcohol never made itself known. To me, the mouthfeel was somewhat chewy, due to the dough taste, and the finish was somewhat stale. This beer, while pleasant, did not finish nearly as well as it started.

Draft. Aromas of orange and lemon citrus, clove, coriander. Hazy lemony yellow with a thin white head. Lots of crisp citrus flavors. Palate thins toward the finish. Yeast throughout.

12 oz bottle. Poured a slightly hazy yellow gold color. Head was thin and white. Aroma was as expected...some coriander, yeasty bread dough, and a whiff of citrus. Flavor was similar and better than I had expected. I liked it better than the Bell’s Winter White Ale when I tried them head to head.
