Milwaukee Ale House Belgian Wit

Brewed by Milwaukee Ale House
Style: Belgian White (Witbier)
Milwaukee, Wisconsin USA

Banana and orange aroma, sweet flavor with fizzy seltzer carbonation. Draft. Refreshing and lemony, nice color, clear orange yellow. Light body.

On tap at Milwaukee Ale House. Poured slightly hazy medium golden with a short, creamy cap of white head. The aroma was sweet with pale and floral notes upfront accented by some spicy yeasty notes.. not bad, but a little too skewed to the sweet side. The flavor found sweet lighter fruity notes and candi-like sugar (closer to table sugar, I guess) with mild peppery spices and banana accents.. picked up some orange right on the back. About medium-bodied on the palate with low-ish carbonation.. too sweet for its own good.. moved OK through the mouth.

Sampled on draught at the Grafton ale house: pours a cloudy golden colour with a large frothy white head. Citrusy flavors, coriander, clove and soft spices throughout. well carbonated, creamy mouthfeel.

On tap at the Milwaukee location. Poured a medium and slightly hazy yellow color with a smaller sized white head. Aromas of citrus wiht light wheat. Tastes of citrus, wheat, and some spices.

Citrus, especially lemon, filed the nose with this beer. I found it a nice enjoyable wit and that is a favored style of mine.

This beer poured hazy amber with a nnice note of citrus. The mouthfeel had citurs and pepper to offer a nice balance and a finish that showed the wheat and the bitterness in harmony.

Tap @ brewery. Aroma was mostly wheat grain. Yellow body with small white head. Flavor seemed to have a decent citrus to it. Had a glass of this after a sampler plater so the palate may of been a bit confused.

2006: Pours to a very cloudy straw/pine colored body with a thin white head. The flavor is wheaty, lightly yeasty, light orange citrus, bready. The aroma is lightly bready. The palate is smooth, slick, easy drinking, refreshing. The flavor is slightly better than a 7... perhaps some graham cracker hiding in the flavors. 5, 3, 7, 4, 13 = 3.2

2007: Pours to a hazy dark pine colored body with a thin creamy white head. The flavor is heavy on the bitter orange rind with notes of coriander and pale malt. The oranges are extremely forward. Too much so. The aroma is light with subtle yeasts, orange peel, and simple malt. The palate is bitter and average. A very plain wit.
