Commercial Description:
Ommegang Witte, a traditional Belgian-style wheat ale with whispers of sweet orange and a touch of tart lemon. Soft and seductive, Ommegang Witte is this summer's version of spicy intrigue and refreshing flavor.

Pours fairly clear gold with a big frothy head. Aroma primarilly of spice and wheat, with slight notes of citrus and funk. Spice dominates the flavor too, and it finishes clean, like a pislener. Very odd witte. No banana or funk notes in the taste. Tastes more liike Hefeweizen. Not a bad beer, just an odd one form a brewery that usually hits its style.

Effervescent golden color, light whispy white head, not really sustained in the tumbler. Delicate banana aroma, soft tart wheat aroma as well. Lemon notes up front, full mouthfeel and flavor, yet remains light in body. Little clove in the finish.

[Bottle] Pours a hazy straw gold with a large, fluffy of white head. Citrusy aroma with coriander. Mouthfeel is a bit watery. Crisp, citric hops, bready yeast.

From a bottle at the KSBF ’08. Hazy pale gold with a bright white head. Spicy, phenolic, and yeasty. Pretty dry. A very nice Witbier.

750ml corked and caged bottle. Bottle conditioned. served in a shaker pint. Opens with a big pop. First pour is a brilliantly clear pale straw, with a couple of fingers of big bubbled white head. Slightly spicy aroma with a bit of wheaty tang. Light bodied, easy drinking. Spritzy mouthfeel, lots of carbonation. Citrusy flavor with a subdued clove flavor. Not a bad summer beer, but I’ve had better wits.
