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.

Great belgian spice aroma, lots of spice, floral hops, and citrus fruit. Pours a faintly hazy yellow with a nice white head. Some great dry spiciness to the taste with hints of coriander, light wheaty taste, and a light hop finish. Nice crisp and dry brew.

very spicey fruity aroma, smeels so damn good. Spicey and fruity taste as well, carbonation really brings out the flavors, a nice dry finish.

GABF2004... Sampled while speaking with Pierre. Cloudy pale gold color with a small white head. Wheaty and citrusy, tart aroma. Lightly tart citrus taste, sweet bubblegum, oranges. A great refresher between the beers I was drinking today.

On Draught and Bottle -Praise be to the Celis family. I was CRUSHED when they left Austin. But thank the beer gods, that they are back in production again ( even if it is in Michigan)- it’s a great state to me. It still has the most refreshing taste of any beer on a hot summer day. Some purist would disagree, but it’s the best beer to drink with just a squeeze of lemon. The bottle version of the new version has a little less flavor then the keg stock. The thrill is back! Now all we need is the Celis Raspberry to make a Berry White mix

Bottle. Pale yellow color with large white head. Aroma of wheat and yeast. Taste is nicely yeasty with a touch of sour spice. Very nice witbier.

Draught at Microbar, Battersea. Straw yellow colour. Citrus aroma, perhaps something sweet like honey or caramel also smelt. Tasted lemony, orangey with a hint of something like coriander. Nice refreshing beer.

This wonderful beer has thankfully been revived and is available in Texas. Puts Hoogarden to shame. 10/07 Celis beers brewed by Michigan Brewing Co. are no longer available in Texas. Repeated attempts to contact the brewery were unsuccessful. Our bad...

Pours a bright yellow color. Aroma and flavor are mild and decent. Spicy and fruity. Body is decent. Overall this is ok.
