Copper coloured body with a three centimetre tall off-white head. Aroma of pale malt, yeast, wheat, tons of coriander seed and a bunch of herbs - all with a lot of yeast noticeable. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong yeast and wheatie flavours throughout with a lot of coriander seed, yeast, herbs and a pungent corn finish. Aftertaste shows more malt, yeast and wheat than anything else - strong and pungent. Overall, a decent wit with some nice spices and a very pungent herbal, yeastie and wheatie flavour throughout. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Binny’s (South Loop) in Chicago, Illinois on 21-August-2013 for US$1.67 sampled at home in Washington on 17-November-2013.

12oz can. Hazy orange-tan. Thin, steady white head. Orange zest, spices, lemon in the aroma. Quite spice forward, almost approaches Saison in a lot of respects. Somewhat watery, approaching medium bodied. Spices and hops add a bitterness that pretty much caries the beer. Simple, thin, somewhat grainy malt tones underneath. Doesn’t really nail the style, but an OK summer beer.

12 oz can. Pours a big pile of foam, which flattens out quickly. Gold color that’s been filtered. Smells a little hoppy with a slight tang of wheat and sour. I can’t pull much of the advertised flavor additions here, but there is a nice wheat spiciness. Somewhat dry compared to my idea of a wit. Some personality at work to raise it just above the level of another light summer brew.

Pour is a cloudy yellow with a large white head. Aroma is corriander and wheat. Flavor is more of the same a nice corriander with some wheat and a decent clove at the end. Pretty good wit out of a can.
