Commercial Description:
Ommegang Witte, a traditional Belgian-style wheat ale with whispers of sweet orange and a touch of tart lemon. Soft and seductive, Ommegang Witte is this summer's version of spicy intrigue and refreshing flavor.

Fizzy, citrusy white ale from Ommegang (whom I normally love!). This one is OK, but the flavors all seemed to be hiding somewhere (and I never found them). Just not what I expected from one of the best breweries in the US. Worth a try, though.

750ml bottle. Cloudy light straw with a white head. Citrus and spice aromas. Medium body with a big mouthfeel. Slight tanginess. Very refreshing.

Not a big wit drinker. But for the style, this is fine. Lots of summer in it. Fresh. Orange.

Bottle. Pours a gigantic frothy head, pale golden and opaque. Very bubbly. Bright citrus and wheat smell. Fairly thin bodied, which is a nice contrast for the thick flavors of lemons and spice. Fades into a gentle bitterness.

Pours a beautiful gold color with gorgeous thick head. Aroma of coriander, orange peel, sugar and a hint of peppermint. Strong flavor of lemon; I couldn’t realy get past that with the taste. Certainly not the most well-rounded flavor I’ve had in a wit.

750ml. Slightly hazy yellow, lacy white head. Somewhat light-bodied with sparkling carbonation. Coriander spice and citrus taste, generally sweet and refreshing. Maybe a bit of orange marmalade. Following the label instructions, I kept the yeast in the bottle for most of it. Pouring a bit in at the end makes in tangy and earthy and less refreshing.
