Sixpoint Brevity

COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
If this post were entirely true to its subject, it would probably stop right about here. But that wouldn’t give you much of an idea about our new seasonal beer, the Brevity Wit. Brewed with toasted coriander and citrus peel, this delectable wheat beer is ripe for slamming all summer long, as our spring seasonal, Harbinger Saison, phases out for the year. Full-bodied yet dry, it’s everything you want from a Wit. Said and done. As a traditional Belgian Wit (an old style of wheat beer), Brevity was brewed with almost 50% wheat. Taking a departure from the typical Wit, however, we’ve used raw, un-malted wheat in a blend of German and domestic barley malt, and flaked oats. This ungelatinized wheat starch makes a striking difference in flavor than had we used only malted wheat, with a nutty, bready flavor that’s much less cloyingly sweet. Upon the suggestion of our friend, Executive Chef Will Prunty of nearby Prime Meats, we’ve toasted the coriander seeds before adding them to the boil. This lends to a rounder, spicier finish, which complements the orange and lime peel that was added, too. Horizon and Citra hops balanced out the blend with another citrusy hint and bitterness
