3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 Brigadier (2275) - Bloomington, Indiana, USA - AUG 18, 2011
On tap at GTMW (2011)
A light and refreshing contrast to the headier offerings this witbier woke up a tired palate. The caramel colored body shimmered by the rainy light. Thin legs crept down the sides. A cloudy base released malt and yeast in equal parts. Tamed by the addition of the honey and rye I think this one would be nice alongside a pizza or other meal at the brewpub.

3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 LarvalChemist (29) - Lexington, Kentucky, USA - MAR 8, 2009
Poured orange with hints of brown. Opaque and unfiltered as a wheat should be.
Aroma is dominated by wheat with an almost meaty character to it.
The taste is sour and exceptionally dry with a dominant rye flavor. Wheat and rye command the long finish.
Wheat/rye beers aren’t usually my pint of brew but this was definitely above average.

2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 thedm (4783) - Fort Wayne, USA - MAR 22, 2005
This draft brew from the brewery poured a small sized head of foamy finely sized mostly diminishing bubbles that left behind a softly carbonated transparent body and a fair lacing. The aroma was mild with malty notes and the mouth feel was medium tingly with a malt hop flavor mixed with grass and corn. Average at best.

From the Indiana Brewers Guild Brew Fest- 7/31/2004. A bit cloudy and on the light yellow side. The aroma was fairly yeasty with a citrus bitterness emerging just before my first sip. The flavor was a bit spiced or herbed and then quite yeasty.
