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.

Light yellow/ whitish color, little too clear for the style, small white head. Plenty of orange in the aroma, spice, coriander, decent. Medium body, somehwat heavy on the carbonation, spicy, acidic, lemon, oily, tasty malts, pleasant lingering wheat finish. A ery drinkable and tasty white.

Pale straw colored. Pungent orange peel aroma, some acid and plenty of coriander. Some phenols. Surprisingly full-bodied. Quite smooth malt character. Dryish long finish. This is very good.

Nice grapefruit peel and coriander aroma. Acidic smell. Very tart flavor, quite full. Lemon juice, grapefruits, and a dank, musty finish. Dry and abrasive. Too carbonated.

Although this beer had a wickedly pale appearnce. A dull opaque yellow with a carbonated white head. I found it light on the stomach too, real easy drinking. Aroma was a mix of spices, malts and lemon. Very little hops in taste, but a great balance between a great bread like taste and lemon.

Pours pale yellow with slight whitish head. Nose is very citrusy and yeasty. Flavor of orange and coriander and some piney notes. Refreshing beer. Worthy example of American made Belgian Wit

Bottle - Slightly cloudy pale yellow in color with a thin white head that disappears quickly. Good clove/banana aroma with hints of other spices. Belgian yeast apparent in both the smell and flavor. Slightly sour with a slight hop flavor finish mixed in with the strong wheatiness, but no hop bitterness. Not a bad example of the style. A fairly good effort

Pale blond color. Lemony aroma. Lemony taste, very light and slightly sour… Not very good.

Celis may be better and her’s what I said about Hoegaarden: Don’t forget this one for that crisp refreshing summer cold drink. An upscale after a sweat quick one - or two :-) - that you’ll find cloudy, pale moon yellow, a touch spiced, white headed and satifying.
