Bomber. Bottled 6/22/16, a little over eight months ago. Hoping this is still drinkable. Aroma is chocolate (like Whoppers), coffee, bad breath, grain. Pours murky dark brown with a collapsing tan head. Taste starts out sweet and roasty before turning sour and bitter with flavors matching the aroma along with some licorice notes. Harsh carbonation. Kind of a gritty texture. Not sure about this one. I tried to give it some benefit of the doubt because of the age. Would like to re-rate with a fresher bottle.

12 oz can. Aroma is grapefruit, cantaloupe, chalky candy. Pours hazy orange with a bone-white head that falls into a ring somewhat quick. Taste is highly bitter and a bit savory with flavors of the aroma, along with some kind of a weird grain. It’s drinkable, but I wouldn’t want another.

12 oz can. Canned 8/15/16. Damn. Didn’t notice that till now. Pours hazy orange-gold with a giant off-white soapy head that takes its sweet time receding. Aroma is honeysuckle, grain. Taste is lightly bitter, lightly sweet and a bit tart. Not bad at all, especially for being six months old.

Tallboy can from work. Aroma is dough, lemon, grain, coriander, peppery. Pours hazy pale yellow with a thin white head. Taste starts out spicy and a little tart from the citrus, dry. Lacks the creamy body that a traditional witbier made with wheat would have. A little thin and watery. If I had a gluten allergy, I might drink this more often. Otherwise, it’s one and done.
