on tap at winking lizard canton. very smooth, mild, classic white taste and features. not much to complain about, except the tavern was out of the take home glass.

750 ml bottle. Poured a light pale yellow with a thick white head. The flavor is of wheat and citrus with a touch of spice in the finish. The flavors are well balanced with a soft carbonation. A very enjoyable witbier.

Light skunkiness, citrus, malt, and spicy aroma. Light yellow color, almost green grape juice colors with a frothy white bubbly head. Flavor has a mild spiciness, grape, orange, light malt sweetness, minimial bitterness, dryish, light wheat. Highly carbonated balanced with a creaminess that finishes dry. Good light and smooth but well carbonated. Well balanced but perhaps a bit too mild. Good overall though.

The first white beer that turned me onto the style. Highly recommended!!!! Nice lemon zest throughout each taste, pours a beautiful head, aroma is perfect and flavor never vanishes in the back of the throat.

750 mL bottle. Translucent yellow-orange with a thick, sticky head. Aroma is malt, yeast, and sweet orange. These tastes carry through in the flavour, which is a little sweeter than I’d like. There’s some spice in there as well. It’s heavily carbonated, and a little thin. There are better examples of the style.

A cloudy light amber yellow with a decent head. Aroma is not strong, wheaty, plenty of lemon tone (but that may have come from the lemon provided with my drink). Flavor is typically wheaty and malty, with a strong citrus overtone and just a hint of bitterness. A nice smooth wheat ale.
