Belgian-Style Ale Brewed with Spices, Wheat and Oats

Orchard White is an unfiltered, bottle conditioned Belgian-style witbier. This hazy, straw yellow beer is spiced with coriander, citrus peel and lavender added to the boil and whirlpool. A spicy, fruity yeast strain is used to add complexity, and rolled oats are added for a silky texture.

Admin Note: This is retired and has moved over the Bruery Terreux line starting in 2015.

750 ml bottle purchased mail order from Joey at South Bay in Imperial Beach, CA. Pour is cloudy hazy golden yellow with a perfectly white one inch head. Aroma of floral hops and earthy grassy hops. Soft fruitiness present as well, strawberry or Kiwi. Very full and engaging nose. Lovely. Taste is flowers, bright hoppiness and wheat. Aftertaste is full of the hay and yeastiness. Palate is dry and on the full side for a Wit, must be the oats. Nice beer.

On tap at Stone. Pours a clear, yellow body with not much head at all. Nice coriander and (to me) celery spicy aroma. Taste is very spicy, with celery, clove, lavender, and coriander. Aroma and taste is similar to a couple of the Unibroue brand. Dry mouthfeel with decent carbonation. 637414:3.4
Rerate: From a growler. Pours a hazy yellow with a long lasting white head. Aroma of coriander, honey, citrus, lavender and bready yeast. Taste is a bit more on the spiced side. Dryish mouthfeel with lively carbonation. 747415:3.7

Cloudy yellow. Big flowery, coriandery, malty aroma. Hugely, assertively peppery with a big whack of coriander. Lacks all semblance of subtlety. Big dry finish. A distinctive wit.
