3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
12 oz. shitter bottle from Capone’s that looks like only about 6 ounces. Odd statement on human shape perception as it applies to beer receptacles. Pours hazy canary with minimal white head. Nose is orange zest, coriander, malt, hops. Tastes citric, with bready pale malt, hops, spice, orange zest, and a pretty smooth finish. Not too shabby.

Bready backbone, slight yeast character, some banana and light clove. A bit musty and grainy. Mild sweet citrus.

UPDATED: AUG 5, 2012 Short neck bottle. Smooth with a slightly crisp finish. Light and refreshing and a good summer beer.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
12 oz bottle. Pours a murky, cloudy straw color with a 2 finger white foamy head. Weak wheaty aroma with a touch of ginger. Interesting taste, a nice mix of ginger and wheat. Neither one dominates over the other. Well balanced. Palate is to the light side. Nice carbonation. Great summer beer.

On Tap at Portsmouth, NH location. Hazy gold. Nose is mostly coriander and citrus. Good carbonation with light head and lace. Served in a pint. I don’ t smell or taste ginger, and for me that’s good. Taste is the smell. Light body and a freshing summer brew. I think this is different from the last Wit they brewed.

Bottle; pours a ruddy gold color with a large white head. Aroma of wheat, bread, with only a hint of spice. Can taste the ginger in the flavor, but it is subdued like most of the flavor in general. Some wheat. Forgettable.

On tap. The pour was a cloudy pale yellow with a lemon-like look to it and a thin, white head. The aroma is slightly spiced up with a minute wheat character that brings out a decent balance. Yes, I do notice the ginger. Delicate zing on the tongue with a modest bitterness thrown in at the end. It really captures the summer season and while it is not out of this world, it is actually quite pleasant on a summer day.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
pours a hazy yellow with fluffy off white head. Aroma is wheat, sourdough, soft spices. Flavor is wheat, not sweet here, and I can see the ginger although I don’t know if I could have without knowing first. It is subtle and not overdone, which is nice. You are left with a taste of it on the finish. Medium bodied, refreshing. Overall a nice drier wit, nothing extraordinary, but enjoyable.

Had this near the end of the wedding reception and I remember it not being that great, which, when drunk, says something. Just overly wheaty for me, but not too bad in the aroma.
