This beer kinda smells like soap. Tangy, cloudy, citrusy, sweet-tart. Not the Wit it wishes it was.

Not too bad for the style. Spicy aroma. Pours a cloudy golden. Coriander is apparent in the flavor along with a bit of a musty finish.

Pours cloudy orange with a light head. Smells of yeast and citrus. Taste some yeast flavor but mostly citrus with slight yeast finish. Average wit.

Thanks Uncle Mattie. 12 oz bottle. Hazy bright yellw with a small white head. Nose is sweet, musty, wheaty, spicey. Taste is of oranges, wheat, musty/barnyard but fresh. Overall a nice refreshing beer-wish I had a case for the upcoming hot Houston summer.

Bottle. Pours a bright orange, transucent, with a small white head. Aroma is very mild and clean with the proper citrus hints and a touch of yeastiness. Taste is very wheaty and turns more citrusy towards the end. Finish is dry. Much milder than some of the other whites available. Very good for a warm afternoon.

Big ol’ draught at Atlanta Airport, Terminal B. Decent witbier aroma, with some orange peel and coriander. Yeasty with a touch of jasmine. Nice subtle aroma that almost borders on a saison. Medium amber orange, cloudy, with thin off-white head. Medium watery body with medium carbonation. Starts pretty sweet. Lots of orange, coriander and bubblegum. Light wheat malt acidity, light carbonic gaseousness. Tangy light bitter finish, though mostly watery and smooth. Refreshing witbier and nice on tap.

...great attempt at a difficult style by this US brewer, was very impressed and surprised. Nice mouthfeel, with wheat malt flavor, orange notes, with hints of spice. Balanced, slightly sweet with a good water taste that blends this beer nicely. Not really a Witbeer, but a pretty damn good beer, worth trying.
