We named this beer as a Halloween seasonal brew, but its refreshing taste makes it a year round staple. Zombie is made according to the Belgian Witbier tradition of using unmalted wheat to create the light body and white sheen. Additions of coriander and orange peel give Zombie a fruity and spicy character, while the hops are subtle and lightly detected. Don’t be scared to crush some Zombies!

Can. Sour milk, vegetal corn, wheat malt, and light straw aroma. Golden yellow with small head. Mildly sweet lemon, corn, coriander, wheat malt, and mildly bitter hay flavor. Decent body. Mediocre at best.

Can code 1916wz. Pour is fairly clear with precipitants floating around. Slightly below room temperature. Fair amount of brightness on the uptake. Not bad as the session continues. could do with a little less spices.

Sample at the Biltmore Village taproom. Hazy yellow-gold color with a thin white head that burns away quickly to a film. Spotty lacing. Herbal wheat, citrus and spice in the nose. Light body with a wheaty character and notes of candied citrus and coriander. The finish is herbal and wheaty. Slightly above average overall.

Location: Draft at the brewery, 1/1/15
Aroma: This one has a fairly light spice, wheat, and yeast aroma, mild citrus
Appearance: It pours a clear yellow color, with a small white head, and spotty lace
Flavor: The flavor is similar to the nose, spice, wheat, yeast, a little more character than the nose
Palate: This one has a clean feel and average carbonation, and it is pretty easy drinking
Overall Impression: I thought this was a decent wit. Nothing amazing here, but you could do worse than to sip on a few of these.

Refrigerated 12oz. aluminum can, can says 5.1% ABV, poured into a weizen glass. Pours slightly hazy pale golden with little head which dissipates fast. Aroma is nice coriander, medium body, low carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is coriander, esters, some background bitterness, and some orange peel. Has good richness, more carbonation might bump this up a couple spots. Like to try this again.
