33cl bottle from Willow Bend (Tampa, FL). Pours a slightly hazy dark golden with a thin white head that dissipates quickly into nothing. Aroma is wet straw, slightly sweet malt, sour, ripe fruit, hints of spice and honey. Flavor is surprising for a witbier -- sweet and malty with a tartness that smacks the palate. Mouthfeel is generally watery with a quick, somewhat dry finish. Not typical for the style, but interesting.

Branded as Wit beer, but does not fit the mold. Quite a smack of tartness in the finish is unusual for the style. Pours a slight hazy golden color with a thin quickly receding head. Aroma smacks of orange and feet. Mouthfeel is thin with a dry finish. Coriander is underplayed. Forget about this and reach for a Hoegarden.

Murky copper color with a medium head. Sour aroma. A little smoke and sugary lime. Very weak, tart lime flavor. Light malt. A whitbier? Umm... no?

11.2 fl oz bottle purchased at Lukas, KCMO. Pour is hazy orange yellow, initial one inch white head falls really fast with crackling carbonation bubbles. Aroma of citrus lemons. Some sourness. Taste is really citrusy and spicy (coriander and cloves). The citrus is equal parts lemon and lime. Wheat character comes through in taste. A bit of menthol in the finish. Palate is thin, with very fizzy carbonation. Overall, meh.

Oddly strange beer. I believe this is what Busch was trying to do with Shock Top. This belgian white is excellent on a hot day and is still very enjoyable after 5 or 6. Go out and try it, if you can find it.

33 cL bottle. Pours hazy yellow to orange with a bubbly, white and shortlived head. Citrus fruity aroma, mild spiced. Initial flavour is citrusy to orange fruity. Mild spice flavour beneath can be sensed, but that’s about it. Quite fresh and fruity finish. Quite drinkable yet nothing outstanding.

Yellow orange hue with quickly disapating head. Mouthfeel is light with very little aftertaste. Taste like a bland orange. Acidic at first, but becomes completely bland. Too much orange peel, needs some additional ingredients to add mouthfeel and head retention...
