Can listed as from stark brewing. Belgian wit with a nice head. Very mild citrus aroma. Fairly flat. Looks like a wit beir of course. Yes, mild taste attributes as well. Mild & easy. Except for the lacking of CO2, this is not bad. Pretty good overall. Thank you to my son in law.

Can from Bert’s Pours a hazy deep yellow color with a small bubbly white head that dissipates almost instantly. Aromas of light grainy malt a hint of lemony citrus and a touch of spice. Taste follows the aroma quite well and adds a bit of earthiness. Light easy to drink with enough flavor to keep it somewhat interesting. Not bad.

Bottle pour into nonic pint glass from Cigarette City. Aroma is lightly sweet fruity esters with yeast and vague metallic smell. Appearance is hazy pale yellow with nice sparkle, massive (5-finger width!) sudsy white head with decent retention (actually somewhat annoying), and sticky soapy lacing. Taste is lightly sweet (citrus?) mixed with some tart yeast, notes of fruit (some of it overly fermented) and the metallic taste in aroma. Palate is light bodied with thin texture, initial burst of effervescence but then average carbonation and dry finish. Overall, this may have been old but way too much carbonation and not enough flavor or aroma.

Treated as a witbier, this was poured into a mug.
The appearance was a semi-hazy to transparent bronzed golden color. A slim cap of a little white head that dissipated immediately. A moderate light sticky spider-web lacing clung to the glass.
The smell started off with a slight sharp crisp sweet apple running into a shy amount of tropical fruits.
The taste was mainly the same sweet flavor with a really low key amount of spices. Lingering fruity sweet aftertaste running into a sweet fruity finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body with a fairly decent sessionability about it. Carbonation runs super low. Sticky fruity notes cling to my tongue.
Overall, well, it was an okay witbier to me and an okay witbier for the style. No date on this bottle, wishing they would have dated this one as I’d only have again fresh.

Draft at the pub. Pint glass. Light nearly clear yellow. Lively carbonation. Good amount of coriander. It was light and easy to drink however, by the end of the pint I didn’t want another one. I’m slowly shying away from this style over all. Still a nice brew, just depends what you are in the mood to drink.
