This beer style is over 400 years old, and continues to enjoy overwhelming popularity. Offering low hop bitterness, it is easy to enjoy. It pours very hazy, with a light gold color... we say it’s like summertime in a glass. Bitter orange peel and fresh coriander add zest and depth to this light, refreshing beer.

Bottle @ home, picked up in Charlotte. Pours a fairly murky dull yellow appearance with a dull white head. A lot of spicy coriander in the nose. Orange citrus / citrus peel, spicy yeast nose. Kind of soapy / potpourri flavor. A massive amount of coriander in the flavor. Low sweetness and bitterness. Not too great.

Chilled 12 oz. bottle at Chuchkey poured into a glass. Pours hazy pale yellow with small white head with dissapates quickly. Aroma is rich orange, little lacing, light body, and little carbonation. Taste is nice rich orange, some slightly bitter orange peel, with a hint of coriander which peaks at times. Refreshing, but rich orange makes this better than most.

12 oz. bottle. Pours pale, hazy yellow with a small, white head and good lacing. The aroma is lemon peels, coriander, hay, and bread dough. The flavor is sweet and citrusy, with faint bitterness in the finish. The palate is light to medium, crisp and a little grainy. This is a surprisingly delicious witbier. Light, refreshing, and yet still delicious and yeasty. Very nice.

Grass, lemongrass, and coriander nose, very green. Hazy yellow, medium head with little retention. Malty, grassy, coriander, lemongrass flavor. Medium body, alcohol not noticed. Crisp clean finish. Full of flavor and complexity, but sessionable as a good wit should be. Quite nicely hopped without being what one might call a white IPA. Great job!
