Commercial Description:
This beer is fashioned after the Belgian 'Wit" or White beers, so named for the protein haze in the beer that comes from using unmalted wheat . Another common trait with the Belgian Wit style is the use of Honey, Oatmeal, Sweet and Bitter Orange Peels and Ground Coriander in the kettle. The Honey provides a floral aroma that varies with each batch due to the changes in the honey from season to season. The Coriander and the Orange Peels give a spicy, citrusy flavor and aroma, The Oatmeal adds a silky smooth texture. It is gently hopped with Simcoe and Mt Hood hops to a bitterness of 16 IBUs.
O.G. - 13/1052. Hops - 16 IBUs

Citrusy aroma, cloudy pale appearance, a little to sweet.

Interesting Belgian witbier interpretation. This has less up front citrusy flavors, and more spicy wheat tones. More of a wheat and less sweet than, say, Blue Moon or Spanish Peaks. Good refreshing summer brew.
