Commercial Description:
Our wit beer (white beer) is an old style Belgian ale, brewed with wheat and barely , and spiced with Curacao bitter orange peel and coriander. The coriander and orange zest are detectable in the beer's aroma with a lingering, yet subtle "orangeiness." A unique one of a kind brew!
Moon River earned four medals at the 2005 Georgia Craft Brew Challenge hosted by Georgians for World-Class Beer. On Nov. 5, more than 200 lucky people packed the Biergarten at Atlanta’s 5 Seasons Brewing Company to taste the best beers made in Georgia. During the blind judging session, judges evaluated 35 beers and deemed:
• Belgian Ale Category: 1st Place - Wild Wacky Wit

A cloudy yellow appearance. The aroma is slightly spicy and floral with some coriander and lemons present. The flavor is somewhat sour with some oranges and lemons. The aftertaste is rather creamy. Overall a pretty good witbier.

For the style, this was a good brew. With hints of coriander and other wild herbs, this beer reminds me of blue moon and tastes great with a wedge of orange.

Tap at brewery. Sweet orange/lemon and coriander aroma. Cloudy pale yellow with minimal head. Sweet orange and lemon flavor - lightly musty. On the sweet side but an excellent beer.

Cloudy yellow body, little head. Aroma is lemony and a bit spicy. Flavor is rich and sweet with mild hoppiness. Not a bad one for the summer heat.

Draught. Pours cloudy yellow/white. Aroma is very citrusy, I made sure there was no wedge of fruit stuffed in the glass, and thankfully it was all natural. Quite impressive. Flavor is very citrusy as well, full of orange, lemon zest, and grain. Refreshing finish, nice beer.

Moon River Brew Tap, Savannah. Pours out a light, hazy, lemonade like color. Aroma is citrus and wheat. Taste is lemony with some clove and wheat. Not a bad offering from Moon River, very easy drinking on a hot July day.

Pours a light, cloudy gold with a thin white head. The aroma was wheaty with some citrus and orange zest. The flavor was excellent and appropriate for the style - sweet malts, lots of chewy wheat, a nice citrus tone from orange peel, with a subtle background of spice (coriander and yeast). The finish was medium in body with an after-taste of sweet orange. Very nice - especially on a hot day in Savannah.
