Bottle. Pours clear golden, large white head, good lacing. Aroma is brett, dust, basement, floral. Flavor is not really tart, medium musty dried out brett funk. Light body. Interesting.

Treated as an American pale wheat ale, this was poured into a becher pint glass.
The appearance was a hazy burnt glossy yellow color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that dissipated at a fair pace. Messy lacing.
The aroma takes some hay, sweet grass, lemongrass, coriander, lemon pulp, some white pepper, slight tartness.
The flavor brings the wheat a bit more forward to blend with the previously mentioned aromas. Crisp sweet wheaty subtle spicy aftertaste sly finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a nice sessionability about it. Mild carbonation.
Overall, I think it’s more of an American Pale Wheat ale, I didn’t smell it taste any witbier yeast strain in this beer. Still, I liked it for what it is and would have again.

On tap at Original Gravity. It pours a clear golden color with a thick white head. The aroma is very funky with hints of pepper and spices. The flavor has some heavy funk with some phenols and hints of band-aid, but it stops short of being distracting. Lots of soft funk and orange peel. Pretty velvety on the palate, which is nice. A funk bomb. Pretty solid wild Witbier.

500 ml bottle into pint glass; no bottle dating, but is a recent release. Pours moderately hazy/cloudy golden straw color with a 2 finger fairly dense and fluffy white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Nice foamy lacing clings down the glass, with a large amount of streaming carbonation retaining the head. Aromas of big lemon, orange peel, pear, apple, coriander, peppercorn, clove, wheat, cracker, hay, straw, grass, light funk, and herbal/yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/earthy yeast, spices, and moderate pale malt notes; with great strength. Flavors of big lemon, orange peel, pear, apple, coriander, peppercorn, clove, wheat, cracker, hay, straw, grass, light funk, and herbal/yeast earthiness. Good amount of peppery yeast spiciness and light herbal bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of lemon, orange peel, pear, apple, coriander, peppercorn, clove, wheat, cracker, and herbal/yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Damn nice complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/earthy yeast, spices, and moderate pale malt flavors; with great malt/spiciness balance. Moderate dryness from carbonation/spiciness as well. High carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, crisp, and moderately creamy/grainy/sticky balanced mouthfeel that is awesome. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5.4%. Overall this is an awesome Witbier! All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/earthy yeast, spices, and moderate pale malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, and refreshing to drink. Some subtle Brett character is present, but it is mostly dominated by saison yeast. A highly enjoyable offering.
