Commercial Description:
A swirling dynamo of flavor, with a steady calm of satisfaction at its heart, that's Whirlwind Witbier. Offering a tamed tempest of flavors both spicy and sublime, this softly fermented ale greets the nose and tingles the tongue. Imported Belgian yeast charges Whirlwind with an energy all its own. It is a refreshing interpretation of the classic, Belgian 'white beer' style.

I really like this beer. A good tasting beer that girls will accually drink. Looks and tastes like the real thing. Brewed in my home state! The kicker is it's only 25 bones a case from the distrib right down the road. I can see myself downing many of these in the future.

12oz bottle. Pours a cloudy golden yellowish orange color with a very thin head. Spicy aroma with hints of citrus, lemon zest and banana. Very smooth and crisp with spicy pepper, lemon zest, citrus peel and banana flavor. Slight malt presence as well. Aftertaste is a bit metallic and soapy though.

Appearance was typical of a wit beer, hazy, orangy, with a thin head. Aroma was very citrusy, lemon and orange. Not a bad wit beer, expected from Victory. Good for a summer day.

Sampled on 12/11/08. This wit beer pours a medium orange gold color from a 12oz bottle. Small to medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is citrus, coriander, wheat and some yeast. A medium bodied wit. The malts are wheaty, cereal and fruity. The hops are spicy and floral. Lot of citrus, orange peel and coriander flavors in this wit beer. Lots of little bubbles in the carbonation. Nice balance. Lots of citrus flavors in the aftertaste. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is crisp and dry. Aftertaste is slightly bitter with some citrus.

Faint clove aroma. Pours a clear hazy amber, not much head, chunky sediment. Flavor leads with clove, citrus, and coriander, moves towards whole wheat, finishes biscuity.
