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.

12oz bottle, been cold for a long while, pour is a light yellow, lighter than even (gasp) Blue Moon, smell is with that coriander and yeast, not bad at all cept for that yeasty funk that i personally dislike, not bad and very very drinkable despite above quality.

Tessic (746) - Brantford, Ontario, CANADA - OCT 11, 2012
This witbier poured a cloudy light yellow colour with a big, beautiful, bright white head. To the nose there are scents of spice, cooked veggies, dough and a little vinegar. First sip was very carbonated and somewhat watery with flavours of cinnemon, spice, vanilla and hay. Finish is spicey with flavours of cinnemon lingering on the palate.

Yellow pour, white head. Aroma is banan, coriander, yeast. Flavor is much the same, not a whole lot going on. Meh.

malrubius (1403) - Valley Stream, New York, USA - AUG 23, 2012
12 ounce bottle from Tops. Very pale hazy (not cloudy?) with lasting flat head and some lace. Coriander aroma with some lemon. Fruity lemon apricot sweetness with coriander finish almost like Indian food. Thin and a a little watery. Further confirmation that Hoegaarden is one of the best beers in the world.

Elwood (2493) - Leesburg, Virginia, USA - JUL 19, 2012
Serving: 12 oz. bottle from the Giant in Leesburg. It pours a hazy pale yellow with a head of rocky white foam that fills half the glass. Can you say overcarbonated? The nose has pleasant notes of yeast, coriander, lemon peel, and a touch of spice. Nice and dry on the palate with the yeast, lemon notes, and spice coming on strong. Light on the tongue with a way too much carbonation but a short finish. The flavor seems spot on, but I could use a lot less carbonation in this brew.

mmmbeer (1154) - Austin, Texas, USA - JUL 11, 2012
12 oz. bottle served in tumbler- poured a slightly dulled faint yellow color, foamy white ring around the glass for a head. Aroma of bread, yeast, and urine- ugh! Hits the mouth with a restrained body, malt has just a slight amount of wheat added perhaps, a magical various fruit ester voyage in the middle, finish is lasting and has alot of spice notes. It’s going to be interesting since at the present time, the Celis name has been bought back from the closed MI Brewing and plans to start brewing again in Austin. Highly intriguing move.
