May 3, 2009 Poured from a 22oz bottle into a pyramid hefe glass.
Pours the palest strawy yellow i’ve seen. It’s almost a crayola color.
Not very hazy for being a wit, it goes from a murky yellow to a bright translucent yellow as you look up the glass.
Smells bright and lemony. Little hop and yeast scent, bright on citrus.
Taste is surprising, not much yeast or spice. Very clean for a wit, tastes of lemon zest.
For $3/bomber, I am rather pleased.

May 3, 2009 Draft - Poured a hazy yellow in color with a thick bright white head that hung on to produce some really nice lacing on the glass. Aroma was yeasty with plenty of coriander, orange and banana. Flavor was not strong, but had all of the requisite Wit characteristics. Just OK, but very drinkable.

May 2, 2009 Coriander aroma, little to no head. Hint of lemon flavor, left sediment in glass.

Apr 29, 2009 This tasty brew could be a regular weekly "go to" beer when one is in the mood for a solid Wit

Apr 28, 2009 Pale straw with a short, small bubbled white head. banana and clove on the nose, alcohol and perfumey. sort of a big empty taste to it, weird, missing some backbone I think but the flavours are nice, spicy and zesty. nice and refreshing, but I feel something is missing.

Apr 24, 2009 I wasn’t expecting to like this beer, but I do. The relatively low rating reflects my dislike of the style more than this example. I’ve not had a wit that I’ve enjoyed as much until now. The flavour is the nicest thing - very subtle and complex spicing. I get banana (unusual in a wit), clove, coriander, cinnamon, nutmeg - strange mix. It works though. So smooth and drinkable too. I’d have another and that’s a big call from this wit-hater.

Apr 21, 2009 Bottle: Pour on this was about as pale of a yellow that I’ve ever seen...nose is mainly a concoction of muted banana, spice, lemon and malt. Body is spritzy, refreshing. Flavor is so ridiculously watered down in all aspects...some subtle citrus and spice noted. Boring as hell.

Apr 21, 2009 Certainly one of the better US Wheat beers. nice spicy aroma, great colout and head retention. Flavour is good citrus and coriander, finishes a bit short, but is typical of this style of the beer
