Flying Dog Woody Creek White

Brewed by Flying Dog Brewery
Style: Belgian White (Witbier)
Frederick, Maryland USA

bottle, cloudy thin yellow color, head is small foam, ligth banana and spice nose, flavors of banana, strong cloves and bitter aspirin, finish is a little watery

A murky yellow apperance with a white head. The aroma contains coriander, lemons, and oranges. The flavor is rather light with some lemons, orange peels, and a hint of clove. Overall a decent summer beer but a little bit on the light side even for a witbier.

Bottle. Hazy yellow coloured with a small white head. Fruity aroma of citrus, rubber and yeast. Fruity flavour of coriander, pepper, citrus and yeast with notes of spices. Spicy finish.

Bottle. Pours a murky yellow with a 2 finger fizzy white head and ok lacing. Nose is coriander and oranges. Taste is wheat, malt, coriander and light citrus with a strange vegetable-like finish (think watery V8 juice). Strange. Medium mouth feel. Meh, a little too weird for me.

Pours pineapple-orange juice-orange, with a 2 finger fine bubbled white head that lasts quite a while but leaves no lacing. Aroma is yeast, bananas, wheat, orange, spice, sweet orange cranberry bread, honey wheat bread. Flavor is lots of yeasty bread rolls, orange juice, spicy hops, and a little nutty note right at the end. Body is pretty thick and sticky for a Wit, maybe not a good thing but it is a little sweeter than most Wit’s I have had too.

Bottle awesome artwork. Pours a yellow soft white yellow beer. Lots of spices, orange, cherries, vanilla and some other light fruit. Really sessionable beer i really enjoyed this wit.

Poured a cloudy yellow with some suspended sediment. The nose was coriander, orange peel, and wheat, with a shadow of green apple and biscuits. Taste was a little bready, with that orange peel flavor hanging around in the back of my mouth. There’s some clove in there as well. The mouthfeel was flat. Too flat for drinking on it’s own. It needs some food with it to be more drinkable. All around, I’m not impressed. I’ve had many better belgian whites, and I’d rather have a hoegaarden or even a blue moon. Worth a taste, but not worth two.

Cloudy butterscotch color with no head. Nose of coriander and orange peel, with the flavor being spiced oranges and coriander. This bottle was surprisingly flat, which makes me think it was a bad bottle. Wish it was carbonated.
