Decent belgian white. Oranges and spice on the nose and palate, thick mouth feel. Overall a drinkable wit.

Bottle. Pours slightly hazy yellowish with a short lived white head. Smell is atrocious with a ton of fake buttered popcorn like butter and just a hint of wheat and not much else. Taste is better than the smell with a nice crisp wheatiness, a bit of citrus and spice as well. Medium body and crisp carbonation, but there is a touch of butteriness to the flavor as well. The smell really kills an otherwise decent beer here.

12 oz bottle: Pours a golden yellow with a thin head and a surprising amount of carbonation. Sweet yeast, orange, lemon, and spice aroma. A very nice taste comprised of yeast, citrus, and mild spices. Surprised by how much I liked this one.

This brew is a hazy golden-orange color with a thin and fizzy white head that recedes steadily, and some chunks on the bottom of the glass. Small patches of lacing on the glass. Citrus and spices in the nose. Light-bodied with orange peel, spice and yeast flavors. The finish is zesty fruit with a vanilla and yeast aftertaste. Not sure what makes this a "Double" as it seemed within the bounds of many Wits I have tried. Decent either way.

Bottle shared by Dogbrick. Pours a chunky gold with a big white head. Yeasty aroma with a sweet malt influence. Yeast flavor with some citrus and a peppery finish.

Yellowish orange pour with a thin white head, very strong lemon and corriander, refreshing lemon and orange taste, well-hidden alcohol leaves a perfectly dry aftertaste.

Pours an orange, clear body with little to no head. Sweet, semi-fruity nose with a hint of coriander.

12oz bottle. Pours semi cloudy golden straw color. Aromas of citrus, orange and lemon peel, yeast, and some spice (coriander). Flavors are sweet citrus up front, and some nice spicy yeast, and malt in the finish. Decent stuff here, I was surprised to see it was almost 7%.
