Apr 1, 2009 12oz bottle. Cloudy yellow with small white head. Citrus aroma with spices, coriander, yeast, a little sour, a little pepper. Wheat, spice, yeast, citrus, lemon, a little sour, some green apple. Medium body and active carbonation. Almost solid, but there is something funny about it at the same time. Conrats John’s for being around so long!

Mar 24, 2009 Citrus and wheat smells are most apparent to me at first. Pours a very cloudy yellow color with thin white head. Tastes like citrus and a little like spicy beard. Palate is full of citrus.

Feb 5, 2009 bottle, from trade with General Gao.
Good aroma, sweet & spice, banana, clove, occasional cereal and honey. Hazed pale golden color, good head that faded quickly to nothing. Flavor like aroma, initial sweetness gives way to spice and banana. Medium body, creamy mouth feel, spiced finish that fades off. Tasty, I liked it cold better, yeast got stronger as it warmed and took away from other parts of aroma, Thanks General...

Pours clear golden with thick white head.
Aroma has all the characteristics of a wit. Nice fruity aroma of citrus, spices with coriander.
Taste, medium body with spices (coriander), citrus zest. Finish is crisp.
Overall, a very drinkable beer, refreshing, not as bad as I had anticipated.

Jan 12, 2009 Standard Witbier. Not my favorite style. This tastes about as good as any other Witbier I’ve had. Nothing special. Basic flavors.

Oct 27, 2008 12oz bottle thanks to pepsican – Perfect 10 trade. Hazy onion skin yellow. The usual banana and clove aroma with a bit of mustiness. Well balanced flavor. Banana and clove are light and the spiciness is more forward than usual but not overwhelming. A bit of a metallic finish. Medium body.
