The Cracker Cowboys of Florida were colonial-era settlers, often of Scots-Irish descent, who arrived in Florida when Spain traded their territory of La Florida to the English. The term Cracker in Florida usage relates to the whip these “cow hunters” used to herd cattle in Florida’s Palmetto Prairies. Called Quaqueros by the Spanish, these hardy and hard working Cracker Cowboys helped to shape the history of Florida, the nation’s oldest cattle raising state. We brew Florida Cracker White Ale with unmalted wheat, orange peel and coriander and then ferment it with a Belgianyeast strain to give it a spicy and dry finish. Perfect for a warm day on the Palmetto Prairie.

A can brought back as a gift from Florida. Cloudy orange pour, small white wheat. Lovely coriander and orange zest Aroma. Light spice and yeasty bread with some good cereals. Mouth feel is nice, carb is soft. Low bitterness, loads of lemon and orange and slight spice. Takes the traditional flavours of the style and dials them up to 11, great stuff.

From tap at Brody's, Den Haag. Dry-ish with an aroma of spicy yeast, coriander, wheat, citrus and a little lime. Flavour is a bit sweet. Body is medium. Decent agreeable Wit.

Canned in October 2019. The age has mellowed the heavy yeast flavor, and now I actually taste a little bit of the orange peel. Still not my style, but at least its an improvement with age.
