Feb 19, 2008 Courtesy shp555...thanks! Pours a deeper orange than a typical wit. Thick head dissipates quickly into a thin residue, and I mean real quickly. Aroma is sweet and fruity...dominated by orange, but with some clove and coriander. Flavor is nice and robust for a wit...holds to the style but takes things a bit further with intense citrus flavors (primarily orange), and a good spicy finish. Yeasty, bready accents are in there as well, and this has a bit of a hefe feel to it at times. Level of carbonation is very good, and the aftertaste lingers long after the drink is over. Although I’m somewhat biased as a fan of witbiers, this is a very good first experience with SweetWater, and a great example of a wit

Feb 19, 2008 Better than what I expected. The pour was great if the head could hold up a little longer. Unfiltered golden pour, white, one finger head. Aroma of oranges, cloves and typical wit spice. Greatly pronounced. The flavor is light bread, citrus, and cloves. Slightly sweet with a dry finish. Super refreshing, definitley quaffable, great for the summer.

Jan 27, 2008 Peach color with a white head, a little cloudy. Has the smell and taste of coriander and orange. Light and refreshing.

Jan 20, 2008 Pours slightly hazy dark golden, very small white head. Aroma is coriander and orange. Flavor is a little thin but has coriander upfront and all the way, some orange is in there as well but really it’s all coriander not too much but it’s the only flavor. But overal a nice thirst quencher.

Jan 4, 2008 Bottled. Pours a hazy golden yellow colour with a thin white head. Good yeasty aroma blended with citrus scents. Flavour a little heavy on citrus with a slightly sharp/tart finish. Okay.

Jan 4, 2008 Updated: May 4, 2008Bottle. Acidic citric aroma. Pale orange pour with thick white head. Very bad banana and tart citric taste. No where near as good as I would expect.

Dec 31, 2007 An excellent beer to set off pizza or a burger. Lightly sweet with citrus up front, more lemon than orange, and a strong clove backstop. Very smooth.
