Witbeir is generally not one of my favorites but I really enjoyed this one. Poured a hazy yellow. Medium body with a grainy fruity taste. A really nice beer.

12 oz bottle. Pours like liquid sunshine with a lovely white cap of lacy foam. Smell is Wit 101 with grass, spice and citrus. Flavor, however, demonstrates nothing to separate it from its brethren. Notes of orange and spice, but there’s something medicine-y in the finish that detracts from the experience. Decent enough, but doesn’t live up to the other fine beers in the GLBC brewing portfolio.

12oz - Pours the customary yellow gold with the requisite internal glow. White head lasts and gives nice lacing. Yeast and spice on nose. Lightly citrus on front, malt in middle with a sweet finish. The finish is distracting.

Pours a cloudy hazy golden colour with plenty of wheat. Citrusy and creamy on the palate, coriander seed, oranges and clean refreshing tropical fruit flavors. Aroma is pleasent but a little weak.

Draft at brewpub. Cloudy golden body, yeasty nose with citrus and coriander (and perhaps chamomile as well). Good example of style, with a yeasty body.
