Commercial Description:
Our first venture into organically-produced beer, Mothership Wit Organic Wheat Beer elevates the zesty Wit or White beers of Belgium. Our far-flung Beer Rangers affectionately refer to our Fort Collins brewery as the Mothership, a name that conjures images of earth shot from space and the interconnectivity of it all. Mothership Wit is brewed with wheat and barley malt, as well as coriander and orange peel spicing resulting in a balance of citrus and sour flavors held in suspension by a bright burst of carbonation.

A hazy light yellow beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of citrus as well as lighter notes of wheat and lemon. The flavo is sweet wheaty with strong notes of coriander. The body is thin.

Bottle 35,5 cl. Pours a hazy and opaque pale yellow with a dense white head leaving laces. Slight citrus in the nose. Medium body with yeast dominating. Dry and somewhat astringent finish. A different - if not exactly more exciting - take on a Belgian Wit. 060709

Draught at the Yardhouse, Las Vegas
Cloudy pale blond color. The aroma is quite fruity, the mothfeel very weak, with a rather refreshing (but too simple) flavor, a bit herbal too.

Bottle from Icecody, thanks! Pale blonde, hazy, creamy head. Coreander and orange in the aroma. Citrus flavor (tangerine and lemon) with lots of coreander and a hint of anis. Malty sweetish, medium bodied. A good thirst quencher, and a well made wit.
