Carl99Fan (186), Suwanee, Georgia, USA Jul 14, 2007 Not bad. Very slight orange flavor. Would enjoy this while grilling on a hot Georgia day. ChainGangGuy (2523), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA Jul 7, 2007 Updated: Jun 30, 2009Appearance: Pours hazy, light copper body with a small, fizzy white head.
Smell: Strongly fragrant nose of coriander, clove, and dried orange peel. Ah, but wait, is that blanched green vegetables?
Taste: Bready wheat flavor with plenty of yeast, bananas, and coriander. Infused with a sweet citrus kick. Finishes with that sweet-tart lemon flavor and that sneaky hint of veggies.
Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Moderately carbonated.
Drinkability: I remember a bygone time when this beer was known as Summer Hummer and available only, well, during the summertime. I miss those days. garmonbozia (225), Hattiesburg, Mississippi, USA Jul 7, 2007 12oz bottle: Very pleasent smell of oranges in this beer. I thought it was very different from most witbiers I’ve tried in the past, and to be quit honest, I’m not a big fan of wits, but this was mighty fine. Taste was smooth and I could taste the orange and coriander. There was a bit of an aftertaste, but who cares. A nice summer beer Ty5592 (1015), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 21, 2007 Good witbier. Hazy yellow color with nice head. Flavor was similar to Victory Whirlwind, but a little sweeter. How do I know this? I drank them back to back,that’s how. Refreshing. Saarlander (1577), Saarlouis, Germany Jun 17, 2007 Dull orange color with lots of citrus aroma, smelled like Orange juice! Flavor was citrus, with a slight banana flavor, more banana than expected for a wit bier, thought it would be more citrus, anywhoo... a very nice drinking brew, with alot of citrus, quite good! Thanks to shp555 for another great Brew! beerguy101 (3861), Newark, California, USA Jun 7, 2007 This witbier pours a medium orange color from a 12oz bottle. Medium sized white foamy head. Aroma is banana esters, citrusy and floral. A medium bodied wit. Malts are fruity, orange and peaches. Lots of coriander and orange peel. Kind of fruit and floral, yet there is a nice malt backbone evident. Light and refreshing with some flavor to it. Perhaps a touch buttery, but not bad. Good summer beer. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet. RichJ7 (1175), Cullman, Alabama, USA Jun 5, 2007 Cloudy yellowish gold in color with a big, foamy head. Strong banana nose. Flavor is bananas and spice, a dash of citrus. Sweet and mellow. Nice. sliffy (1966), Columbus, Ohio, USA May 30, 2007 Bottle: Pours a hazy gold with a white head. Aroma, wheat, citrus, some lemon zest, yeast. Flavor, light wheats, some citrus, oranges, lemon, very light and refreshing. Pretty good stuff.
