Commercial Description:
This traditional white beer is brewed using raw and malted wheat and a Belgian yeast strain. The suspended proteins in the beer cause a hazy or cloudy look to the beer. This thirst quencher is a summer favorite. Cheers!

Tap at Hop Devil Grill. Pale amber beer with a thin white head. Aroma of lemon and peach with a bit of clove. Thin-bodied but okay. Some decent doughy maltiness and a bit of apricot and belgian pale malt. Not terribly wheaty tasting, but it’s quite nice nonetheless.

Draft @ the brewpub. Pours a slightly hazy yellow color with a small white head. Has a spicy wheat malty clove and coriander aroma. Wheat malty spicy coriander and citrus flavor. Has a sweetish wheat malty spicy finish with some hints of citrus and coriander in the aftertaste.

Tasted on tap at the 2nd Annual Drakes IPA Festival. This wit pours a slightly cloudy light yellow gold color. Medium sized white foamy head. Aroma is spicy and citrusy. A light to medium bodied wit. Malts are fruity and sweet and citrusy. More citrus than spice. Clean yeasts. Seems a little more like an American Wheat than a wit, it needs a little more estery character. Crisp and clean. Light and refreshing. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.

Draft at the brewpub. Poured a slightly hazy yellow color with a white head. Nice, typical wit aroma of yeasty bread dough accented by subdued orange and coriander. Flavor was similar with some spiciness on the tongue. Decent beer.

Draft at City Beers. Pours a nice light straw with plenty of visible carb and a tall, bubbly white head. Massively wheat-sour aroma; smells tasty but in a nearly-funky way. Fizzy, slightly watery attack; say the same for the mid-palate. Nice mild grass and lemon notes throughout the quaff. Very refreshing. I’d have to say I’d drink this all the time if it were fresh and on tap.

Tap at the Blind Tiger. True, it is Wit-like. Reminds me of my early drinking experiences, Sam Adams and Saranac and such, maybe a Hoegaarden here and there. Just kind of simple, not very "craft" feeling at all. Light body. Some mint and marshmallow notes in the aroma.

Cloudy light yellow with fizzy white head. Bready slight citrus aroma. Orange and clove taste but the finish falls short.
