Commercial Description:
An American version of the Belgian style. This unfiltered beer has a striking translucent, golden color with white clouds. Seemingly a contradiction in terms, it has a full body mouth-feel but is surprisingly light to drink. Topped with a hint of citrus, provided by Coriander and a secret blend of Humbolt herbs, this beer is slightly sweet and a delight to drink in any season.

Clear whitish yellow body with a random cover of white head that dances around but settles to a thin film quickly. Wheaty aroma, bland maltiness, light spices. Taste is yeasty spiciness, strong citrus zest, not much wheat malt.

Draft at the Yardhouse. Not nearly as white as a Wit should be. Golden amber color with no head. Flavors were just okay. Not too wheaty really. Some citrus and no spice. Blah

Tap @ HSU in California. Very light grain aroma and the tap gave it a small white head but it dissaipated quickly. An sparkling, light amber body that gives the fizzy and watery feeling across the palate. Great beer for chilling with friends.

12oz bottle. Pours pale golden yellow with very small head. Aroma is floral with citrus. Flavor is very light with citrus, coriander and light grains. Very bland and very soft carbonation for a wit. Doesn’t taste bad but is not that well made for the style.

Very floral aroma. Citrus flavors. There is this bready after taste that is quite soothing. Floral in nose and fruity in flavor however not sweet. I was looking forward to sampling something from Lost Coast and I am pleased with my introduction. I mite even prefer this over Hoegaarden.

12oz bottle. Pours a hazy, honey golden color with some fine particulates; white head with good retention and mixed-bubbled lacing. Solid amounts of coriander, light citrus, and touches of herbal character in the aroma; slightly eggy. Medium mouthfeel: chewy amounts of citrus and coriander and white pepper upfront; solid presence, nice acidity, and very drinkable overall; decent, filled-out witbier. Medium finish: pepper, yeastiness, and light citrus; decently dry.

12ox bottle. Slight haze in a yellow body, medium head. Light spice and citrus aroma. Slight wheat and orange flavor. A bit sweet, with low bitterness. Pretty boring, but good drinkability. As a wit, it sucks, but as a generic wheat ale, I can handle it.
