16 ounce can into pint glass, no can dating. Pours slightly hazy pale golden yellow color with a 1-2 finger fluffy white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of big lemon, tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple, pear, ginger, coriander, peppercorn, clove, wheat, cracker, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Nice aromas with good balance and complexity of fruity/spicy yeast, citrus/tropical hops, spices, and light-moderate pale malt notes; with good strength. A little too strong on the spices in the aromas, but not overwhelming. Taste of big lemon, tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple, pear, ginger, coriander, peppercorn, clove, wheat, cracker, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Light-moderate herbal bitterness and yeast spiciness on the finish; slight tart/tangy wheat. Lingering notes of lemon, tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple, pear, ginger, coriander, peppercorn, clove, wheat, cracker, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/spicy yeast, citrus/tropical hops, spices, and light-moderate pale malt flavors; with a great malt/bitter/spiciness balance, and zero cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Medium-high carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, crisp, dry, and lightly creamy/grainy/sticky balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5.4%. Overall this is a very good hoppy witbier. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/spicy yeast, citrus/tropical hops, spices, and light-moderate pale malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink. The citrusy hops compliment the spices and yeast notes really well. A very enjoyable offering.

Draft. Ginger, wheat malt, and straw aroma. Golden yellow with moderate head. Lightly sweet lemon, ginger, wheat malt, and mildly bitter straw flavor. Okay body. Decent.

Draft - Ginger and grassy herbal notes. Clear gold with a decent white head. Raw ginger and grassy notes. Not bad.
