Enjoyed at the source (Roots)--Poured a hazy copper-amber body with a small white head. Mild spiciness as compared to other wits I’ve tasted. Maltier and hoppier than many wits also. Pretty enjoyable as are most Roots brews.

On tap, kegged August of ’06. Got a nose full of coriander and a slight whiff of wet dog. Taste is surprisingly good (I hate coriander) and finish is incredibly bitter for a witbier. The best part is smelling the empty glass... something from my childhood I can’t put a finger on.

Pours a cloudy light orange with a thin white head. This is a very mild wit, it doesn’t have a massive corriander and orange peel character as some do. With that said it is much easier to drink than some, but lacks some of the wit character that I really enjoy. Mild but enjoyable, and you can definatly have quite a few pints of these without getting sick of corriander.

Slightly Hazy yellow with a small white head upon tap pour. Scent of orange is upfront and mingles with the soft spice of a traditional wit. Taste has a mild bitter aftertaste that lingers and leaves a refereshingly clean taste in the mouth. Good organic brew that would quench a post-lawn mowing thirst.

Opaque yellow. Big nose is spicy and lemony. Body is full. This malty example has a rich flavour - well-rounded malts and lots of spice. The malts temper the coriander blast. The yeast seems quite clean and the hops perhaps a shade more than what the Belgians would use.
