A fresh, unfiltered brew perfect for lazy summer days. Our Wahoo White is brewed with unfiltered, un-malted wheat and oats that give it a distinctive cloudy complexity. True to the Belgian tradition, this Witbier boasts a refreshing, citrusy flavor thanks to the orange peel and coriander we add to the boil. This makes Wahoo an ideal beer for year-round beach weather.

Light clove and not a lot else. Malt aroma all jumbled up and clingy like wet t shirts. Light tangy finish. Bottle at Satellite Room.

355 ml bottle. Slightly unclear pale golden body with a thin white head. Aroma of wheat and slightly fruity with a hint of coriander. Flavor is light pale malt, mild fruity and slightly spicy. Medium to light bodied and a bit light aftertaste. Drinkable and to some degree refreshing, but a rather blend version of a wit.

Fra flaske på Cardinal, sesongstart på Mandag i annen, aug-16: uklar lys korngul med ok skum. Krydret aroma med lys malt, honning og banan.. Rund og god smak med lett sødmefylt, kydret preg. Et lettdrikkeig og godt butikkøl.

Shared bottle at Mi2 at Cardinal 15.08.16. Unclear, pale straw colour, white head. Aroma and taste of pale citrus, coriander, green bananas and pilsner malt. Quite dry. Refreshing.

Shared bottle at Cardinal, Stavanger. Pours hazy light golden with almost no head. Aroma of bananas, fruit bubblegum, some sulfur, some oranges. Tastes sweet. Boring.

Bottle. A hazy yellowish golden beer with a white head. The aroma has a light coriander touch, some orange and a rather generic fruityness. Some wheat hints too. It’s medium bodied and perhaps a bit heavy on the carbonation, semi-dry, yet with a sticky feeling in the end. Rather low on bitterness, with a fruityness running the show. Orange hints, some coriander and peppery yeast, as well as some light piney hints. Lightly metallic in the very end. Well, it drinks easy and doesn’t taste bad in any way, but it’s far from exciting. Not a beer I’ll revisit. 160805

355 ml bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 4.5%. Hazy pale yellow colour, low white head. Strong aroma of banana, bubblegum, cloves and coriander. Soft mouthfeel. The wheaty flavour is mid between dry and sweet, again with notes of banana, cloves and coriander, also some citrus. Minimal hops. Refreshing and nice to drink.

Bottle, unsure how to decipher date code, drunk 1/29/16.
Medium-sized white head fades quickly to nothing atop a lightly hazy, rosy-golden body.
Bubble gum, light cotton candy, lemon and tangerine in the nose. Not terribly aromatic and nothing new to see, but no flaws, though a touch of alcohol which shouldn’t be there.
Expansive, fluffy carbonation disperses cotton candy, bubble gum and white pepper/coriander throughout the palate. Light sugariness and fairly well-attenuated. Little bit of corn. I don’t know. About as uninspired/cookie-cutter American wit as you can get, but it’s balanced enough and drinkable.
