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.

12oz bottle. Poured a lighter and slightly hazy yellow color with an averaged sized white head. Aromas of stronger spices, lemon / citrus, and yeast. Tastes of lemons, some wheat, spices, and a trace of bananas. Thinner body.

Bottle... Murky straw-colored ale with a small, fizzy, white head. Smoky nose with lemon, coriander and under ripe banana notes. Flavor matches the nose. Good balance. Light-bodied with a creamy mouthfeel and lots of fruit and spice. Fizzy carbonation. Short, crisp, spicy finish. One of my least favorite styles. Thanks to kmweaver for sharing the bottle!

(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.

Pours a hazy golden with a thin, wispy covering of white head. Aroma of lightly sweet pale slightly biscuity malt has a nice dose of coriander and lemony citrus. Body starts a little thinner and more citric without the light sweetness I like in witbiers. Could use a little more sweet balance, otherwise a fairly authentic wit. Thanks to hopdog for the bottle.

12oz bottle-pours a white head and slightly hazy pale yellow color. Aroma is coriander, wheat, yeast, citrus, spiciness. Taste is citrus-lemon/tart, spiciness, coriander, wheat, yeast, musty. Interesting. OK effervescence. Taste doesn’t follow aroma.

tap at Hop Devil Grill. Clear pale golden colour, creamy white head. Pale wheaty aroma, light coriander. Full-bodied wheaty texture despite the lack of suspended yeast. Bright coriander and a bready/wheaty aroma. Short citrusy finish. Nice wit.

Draft and bottle at varios times. Pours turbid whitish yellow, with minimal white head. Aroma of clove, heavy citrus and hops. Tastes citric, clovey, and hoppy, with some mid-palate banana, bubblegum, and black peppery hints. Good complexity.
