Commercial Description:
Midnight Wit is a Belgian-style white ale with a medium body and spicy, citrus overtones. The texture is silky, creamy, and refreshingly delightful. Brewed with European Pilsner malt, unmalted wheat, a blend of 5 different spices and then fermented with a classic Belgian yeast strain. Our Brewmaster learned the art of brewing tantalizing and award-winning white beers during his time in Belgium and this beer shows it.

Bottled version pours a cloudy maize with small quickly receding head. Aroma is redolent with grapefruit and lemon. This brew is tarter than most wits and elicits a mouthwatering return at each sip, but is sometimes overbearing. Not bad, but not in the top tier of Wits.

On Tap, at Brady’s in Southampton, PA. Pours a very pale murky yellow. Citrus and a little more bitter than Hoegaarden. Another good beer for the summer.

(Bottle, bottled Jan 07) Pours a hazy golden body with a medium white head. Aroma of sour grapes, grapefruit, and lemon. Light lemony wheat flavor with some sour almost gueuze-like qualities.

Tap. Cloudy yellow color with a thin white lace. Citrus aroma. Flavor of lemon with a slight watery taste. Finish is very plain but leaves a bit of taste on the tongue.

Draft at Cooper’s in Scranton. PA. Pours a hazy golden with a dissipating white head. Very faint aroma of lemon zest and spice. Medium light texture, that is pleasantly spritzy. Initial flavor of european pale malts and lemon that quickly transitions to dominating spicy middle (clove, coriander). Sweetness is very subdued. Finish is clean and refreshing with a hint of white pepper. A solid and refreshing summer beer, and much better than I was expecting. Under rated IMO.

Is this the re-worked version of Pretzel City? I love the accentuated coriander which seems to mend well with the spices but halfway through I got kind of bored at Cooper’s Seafood on draft. Something seems missing as far as the finish which is wet to me.

This pours with a large, long lasting frothy white head over a clear yellow body. Flowery clean lemon aroma. The palate is spritzy and delivers a good spicy lemon flavor. Well done witbier.

Bottle. Hazy golden color. Aroma is that of spices. Flavor is that of wheat, lemon, and some yeast and banana flavors. Pretty refreshing, like most Belgian wheat beers.
