May 3, 2008 Pours hazy peach straw colored with a thin fizzy head. Citrus, sour cream, wheaty, coriander and cloves aroma. Surprisingly yeasty flavor, citrus, some sour cream, and not a ton of spices like the aroma would suggest. Excellent drinkability, the yeast & orange peel together really adds that balancing character. Crisp soda like carbonation with a medium body. Good stuff, its hard to come across a proper wheat.

May 3, 2008 Bright pale white/gold pour. A little good funk with the yeast and wheat. On tap at Raleigh WBF, and one of my last pours. Notes are indecipherable, but I do know that I found this above average... but not too far above average.

Apr 28, 2008 Smells great, but the spices are a bit ovecrpowering. The silky head lingers for some time, and bit much for my own tastes. Either way, a good ’white’ ale that trys hard.

Apr 27, 2008 from a 12 oz bottle and from the brewery, on tap and lots of other places. Pretty beer (can I say that?) as it pours with a nice silky head, smells nice and all that. Spices are way over the top for a wit bier, but I suppose that is typical for the over the top Avery style. That said, the beer still is a very nice one and I like it a lot. However, as a wit bier the spices dominate way too much to make it one of the best of its ilk.

Apr 23, 2008 Pours a cloudy amber, with little head. Seriously, I’ve never seen a beer that looked more like urine in my life. Light aroma, but of the traditional Wit style (coriander and orange citrus) and wheat. Flavor is the same, but a bit more prounounced. Seems like a bit of black pepper too, but I can’t find it with every sip. Palate is a bit too fizzy for my tastes, but admittedly smooths out as the temperature of the beer rises. Overall an okay Wit.
