Point Belgian White

Brewed by Stevens Point Brewery
Style: Belgian White (Witbier)
Stevens Point, Wisconsin USA

In the bottle from HyVee CB. Good looking beer- cloudy gold with a thick white head. Surprisingly big coriander orange flavors. Wheat beer aroma is present. This is by no means a pedestrian wit. Good value beer for the price. Pleasant orange and banana finish blended with muted spice heat on the tip of the tongue.

A light golden yellow with a medium white head. Lively carbonation. Aroma and flavor is light wheat, spice, hops and citrus. Very mild flavor and quite refreshing on a hot day.

Cloudy straw with fair, fizzy white head / Light grain and honey nose / Light to medium body, a touch watery, with good balance and fair finish / Mild flavors of grain, banana, honey, orange peel, and coriander / A honest effort by Point.

These guys produce decent beers at a very respectable price. A good wit with all the qualities you would expect coming from a Belgian beer but it is from the middle of WI. A hazy light gold color with a medium white head. Aroma of mild yeast and some spices. Taste is bread with some spices. Not a bad example for about $5/6.

Bottled. Poured a clear paler golden with a short cap of white head. Aroma picks up semi-sweet wheaty notes, faint apple rind, and mild coriander.. subtle, and not overly complex. Flavor was at about the same level, with a mild wheaty backing, light candied banana sweetness, and mild coriander spicing. Average feel on the palate with a lighter body and some grainy texture. Bit of a tangy peppery kick on the finish.

Pours a light yellow with lots of tiny rising bubbles and a frothy, white head. This is one of the clearest wheats that I’ve seen. The aroma is the standard witbier: coriander, citrus and a sweet yeastiness. The body is light, thin and mildly dry at the finish. The flavor is a sweet yeasty front, coriander and oranges with a crisp, dry, wheaty finish. Not bad. A respectable white from Stevens Point.

Picked up a 12-oz bottle from Cellars Wine & Spirits in St Paul, MN. Pours a hazy pale golden yellow brew with a fizzy white head that diminishes quickly to a fine film and spotty lacing. Aroma of wheat, yeast, a little citrus, flowery hops and a touch of spice. Taste is a little on the hefeweizen with an extra kick of orange peel and spices. Finish is dry and refreshing.

12oz bottle. Pours yellow with small, but persistent head. Clarity is much too good for a wit. Aroma is sharp wheat and mild phenols, maybe a touch of yeast. Flavor is wheaty with vanilla, orange, banana, lemon, some mild phenols, and a touch of spice. It lacks the tart finish that I enjoy in my wits, the finish is certainly not sweet, but it is not tart, none of that acid at the end. The yeast seems too mild, the corriander seems nearly non-existant, and the beer nearly looks filtered, but in spite of that all, this is a refreshing beer and maybe a nice transition to something better than BMC.
