Commercial Description:
Berghoff Solstice Wit, named for the golden light of the longest day of the year, is a refined, Bavarian-style thirst-quencher. Made with the finest red wheat, 2-row malted barley, and the most sought-after American hops, this is a light, refreshing brew with subtle hints of Curacao orange and coriander. This was the first beer to feature the new Berghoff label design.

Hazy yellow with a medium quickly diminishing white head. Aroma of yeast, orange peel, light coriander, corn and light bubblegum. Taste of yeast, sweet malt, orange and bubblegum. A touch watery but finishes crisp, sort of seems something like a cross between a hefe and a wit bier.

Pours a hazy orangeish yellow with a decent white head. Aroma has hints of orange peel and has a nice wheaty flavor, along with some spice.

Decent beer all around, pours a cloudy, hazey sort of orangeish colour with a nice white top. Aroma is sweet and enticing, mouthfeel is initially very wheaty, and fruitforward- orange peel, finishes a little tart, which i expected. nice beer.

Picked up a single 12-oz bottle from Flanagan’s Liquors in Appleton, Wisconsin. Pours a clear golden pale brew with a thin white head that quickly dissipates to a fine film and thin white ring. Aroma of light bready malt, a touch of banana, oranges and some dry yeast. Taste is light to medium bodied, well carbonated with flavors of multi-grain malt, some orange zest and earthy spices. Finish is slightly sweet with a light orange zest aftertaste that quickly disappears.

Wow! This is some translucent stuff. Super light golden. Very thin head. Almost clear. Aroma is mild malt, citrus, and spice. Flavor is wheat, bananna, light spice. This is actually really good tasting and very refreshing and crisp.

Pretty good. Awfully clear for a Witbier, with some citrusy aroma and flavor. More like a rendition of a Wit than an actual Wit, but a good choice for a hot day.

Pours light golden with a fully receding white head. Aroma of orange peel, sweet citrus and yeast. Taste is lightly sweet and citric. Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Not bad, but by no means amazing.
