Cloudy yellow color. Aroma is of coriander, lemon peels, and orange juice. Taste is of lemon, wheat, citrus, and lime. Has a tart bite in the aftertaste. Different but yummy.

Bottle. Blurry gold with a short white head. Aroma is that of strong ginger, slightly fermented fruit, citrus (lemon mainly), spices, and yeast notes. Wheat is prevalent as well. Taste is is sweet malts, citrus, yeast , wheat notes, ginger and light spices. Some light, under-carbonated flavor of Sprite/7up as well. Flowery too. Body is light and bubbly with a strong carbonation feel. Ends with more flowers, sweet malts, spices, ginger, wheat, yeast notes and light candyish flavors.

really strong flavors of rice and wheat, strong clove spice. I’m not too happy with this. Bottle from Knightly Spirits, Orlando.

Draft at Hamiltons. Pours a cloudy light yellow hue with a thin layer of white head and lacing. Nose is big ginger, orange/citrus, nutmeg and vanilla. Flavor is ginger and oranges on a wheat base, tones of nutmeg, vanilla, lemon lime linger, finishes fruity sweet. Medium body, creamy texture, high carbonation. Very light and refreshing white ale full of flavor, very easy-drinking and refreshing even if it tastes like lime Gatorade.

Very good white ale, with dominant orange flavors as well as coriander and a faint spiciness. Colored a vibrant yellow-orange with sweet, wheat malt aromas.

Pours a hazy light yellow with a white head that dissapated very quickly, at least on my bottle. Aroma is clove, floral, sweet citrus, and lemon. The spice is a big component of the flavor. I found the coriander most noticable. Clove, grainy wheat, and sweet orange flavors are quite present too. Not as sour as a lot of wits I’ve had. A pretty good wit, but kind of expensive for the quality.

Bottle. Pours cloudy golden, with a medium, off-white head. Aroma of bubblegum, banana, clove, and vanilla. Medium body with a moderate finish. Very good witbier.
