Michigan Brewing Celis White

Brewed by Michigan Brewing Company
Style: Belgian White (Witbier)
Webberville, Michigan USA

Bottle. Tart citrus, dry, wheaty bready dough. Cloudy off white. Light-to-medium body, less sweet, less viscous, less spicey. Well made, but not exciting.

Barrel Draught from the jug at the GABF, Colorado Convention Center 01/10/2005 Golden coloured with a slightly hazy appearance. Fruity banana aroma and flavour. Crisp malt finish.

Pours a peculiar even haze, but oiled sheening of opalsecense in straw yellow with a rim of white. Almost neon or radioactive. Aroma of rich wheat, lemon and a hint of clovey esters. A little sweetartish. Flavor is a surprising slightly sour tart wheat, with rich long lasting lemon, backed with a hint of aromatic hives and light almonds. Finish is lingering and sweet, leaving a tart smack on the roof of your mouth.

Bottle. Wheaty pb+j sandwich aroma with a lemony nuttiness too. Very fresh, wheat field clean air aroma. Cloudy gold body. could be a good one. I ended up drinking this one really warm. banana interfered with my thought process. it tastes really alcoholic and bready. Yech. This one needs to be served cold and drank more quickly, perhaps in warmer weather. I didn’t like the underlying flavor of this one. There is definitely a dose of citrus but it tastes positively rotten at room temp.

Draft sampler at MBC. Poured a hazy white color with a small white head that diminished quickly. Soft wheat aroma. Light to medium body with soft carbonation. Good tart citrus flavor with a medium sweet finish.

Poured from a bottle. Limited head, but has good carbonation and tracing on the glass. Taste is pretty lacking, more like a Sprite or a Ginger Ale than a beer. I’m not too big on this stuff. There isn’t anything offensive about the taste, and it’s actually quite good, but it screams "girly beer" to me. It should be served with an Orange. I have no problem drinking this when in Belguim or at a beer festival, but when I’m with friends, I’ll need a pale lager or something that resembeles real beer. The wife, who hates beer, could find a taste for this. She likes that its served with an orange.

from the bottle. poured a cloudy yellow, with a small white head that left no lacing. aroma, sour, wheat, fruits that are not ripe, citrus (,lemon) spices like cloves and got some orange. flavor, alot better than I thought it would got a nice sweet and tartness, orange, wheat cloves, sugar after taste. nice clean finish.

Lightly roasted maltiness, cut grass, lemon, hay, sour/tart fruitiness, spices, orange peel, and coriander? Creamy texture. Very uninspiring and moddle of the road.
