Commercial Description:
Crisp and refreshing, this beer has a white haze from a special strain of Belgian yeast which is partially responsible for the spicy character in the finish. Coriander and orange was also added to the boil and conditioner to give this beer a brilliant uniqueness you won't find in any other style.

Draft at the brew pub. ice hazy golden pour just like a whit should be. Solid citrus aroma with nice lacing on the glass. Palate was decent with a flavor that was a little too acidic.

Sampled on draft at the brewery this beer poured a cloudy color with a slight orange tint and a large white head. The aroma was a pleasant mix of wheat and citrus. The flavor was mild, wheaty, mildly spicy and had a nice citrus flavor. A really nice rendition of the wit style.

[draft - John Harvard’s Pittsburgh - Monroeville, PA] Poured a cloudy yellow color with a fizzy white head. Heavy yeasty aroma with a ton of citrus and zest. Good sharp yeast and wheat bite with a good citrus followup and a lingering citrus taste.

Part of the sampler at the Wayne, PA location. Not a bad wit. Nice sweet fruit taste to it.

Served slightly cloudy and honey colored with a small snow white head. Aroma of wheat malt with a sweet citrus present. Light to medium bodied and spicy. Nice wheat flavor that was very sweet and rather spicy. Good malt flavors, mostly wheat. Quite drinkable.

Labelled Belgian Whit when I went (I assume its the same beer, from the description it sounds like it). Very pale in color, looks like lemonade. Opaque, you can’t see through it. Had some taste but not the best. Had a subtle aftertaste.

Springfield, PA. Smooth and good tasting. A great balance of malt and hops. The coriander and orange peel flavorings were completely undetectable, though.
