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.

Pours a cloudy pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma of pepper, spice and zesty lemon. Taste is peppery with hints of corriander and lemon. Not bad, but nothing special. A good warm day brew.

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.

Hazy, yellow/gold appearance with an average size head and nice lacing. Yeasty, spicy aroma. Tart taste is spicy, wheaty, citrusy with lemon zest. Light-to-medium bodied, well carbonated mouthfeel. Crisp, dry, lingering finish.

Legacy has a fairly solid and affordable witbier on their hands. A little underrated I think this gets a few more points for the low price. It might not set the world on fire but it does make a good daily drinker.

Aroma / Appearance - Transparent and carbonated the liquid was the color of dried grass. Yeast, hay, and a bit dry (like champagne) it borders on being as sour as a Berliner Weiss.

Flavor / Palate - Straw, honey, and hay make it smooth and drinkable. A yeasty finish caps a well balanced light experience. Banana and seed in the finish linger on the throat. This falls into the lawnmower beer camp.

Draft. Nothing much to say. Pale straw, big white head. Wheat nose, wheat taste without much intensity of clove or citrus or grain or anything else. Thin in the mouth. I did not finish my first small glass. Drain pour.

Pours a clear golden color with a very thin white head. Sour wheaty aroma with some citrus. Flavor is decent: slightly sour malt, citrus tang. Nothing overwhelming about it, but good.

12 oz. bottle courtesy of my friend Steve E. on 7/06/08.

Aroma - Very assertive clove aroma that overshadows lemon and light stone fruit that lurks in the background.

Appearance - Cloudy yellow pour, somewhat spare white head that has a fine, creamy appearance.

Flavor - Starts off with a fruity sweetness that persists with some soft bitterness and a faint tartness that come on board slowly. <P> Palate - Light body and gently carbonation, smooth, not quite dry, yet refreshing and fairly clean mouthfeel.

Overall - Pretty decent, but the spiciness and the sweetness definitely prevail, and I would prefer more dryness.
