it is very possible that i do not have a taste for spiced beer. the fact that i enjoyed this more than any other spiced beer means that i should rate this beer highly, right? but it’s just not that great.

[bottle] Pours a hazy golden color, with a ring of foam around the glass. Aroma of citrus and fresh oranges. Juicy citrus flavors, with a nice foundation of wheat flavors peppery spice. Overall, quite tasty and complex.

pour cloudy yellow with off white head, it has citrusy aroma with hint of coriander. sweet, wheaty, and yeasty, it is textbook example of a belgian white.

Aroma was spicey and sour orange. Poured yellow and bubbly. Flavor was off to me yeasty and wheat but it didn’t mix well with bitterness. Palate was thin but finish left a hard boiled egg yolk taste. Oh well.

Big ass magnum I picked up quite some time ago. Pours a cloudy golden body with decent size head. Smell is yeasty and spicey with corriander being detected. Flavor is of spice also and slightly bitter. Dry mouthfeel.

Thanks to Jasonmech77 for breaking out this magnum bottle at the tasting... Appears a hazed light orange with a small white head that quickly fades into a mild cap. Little speckles of lacing are left around the glass. Smell is of dusty, spiced, pils malt, along with pepper and vanilla. Taste is of the mentioned aromas with a mild citrusy funkiness going on. Mouthfeel beads off the tip of the tongue to a chalky, dry finish. Overall, it’s not what I had expected from a witbier.
