12 oz bottle. Livly, golden body with a diminishing whitehead. Aroma is spicy and slightly acid with a hint of esters. Flavor is sweet with some fruity acid, spices and mandarin. Refreshing, some bitterness in the finish, a bit thin body and short aftertaste.

12oz bottle served in a shaker. Hazy golden orange pour with a thin off-white film for a head. Minimal lacing. The aroma had wheat, orange, coriander, and also some spicy/clovey yeast. The flavor was crisp and had notes of fresh wheat, bright orange, coriander, bread dough, and also some spicy yeast. Pretty nice. The palate was medium-bodied and had a light amount of crisp, lively carbonation. A really nice example of the style.

Clear golden body; chunky white head. Aroma of orange peel and banana. Strong coriander and yeast in the flavor, with a solid hoppiness (style considering). Alcohol not really apparent. I wouldn’t call it a ’Double’ in the sense of an IIPA, but it’s a great Wit for those who enjoy assertive beers.

12oz bottle. A little bummed this didn’t come in the 750 corked and caged bottle like the one pictured. Pours a lightly hazed golden yellow with a frothy white head, nice lacing. A ton of coriander on the nose as well as lemon peel. Flavor was light and quite tangy, lots of citrus peel and coriander.

On tap at Independents’ Day 2009 on 9/19/2009; it was either this or PBR, but it was a pleasant surprise; I guess a plastic cup is a poor substitute for a tumbler or weizen glass, but the quality of the ale overcame such a humble vessel; I wasn’t alone in this assessment, for the two beer wagons ran out around 7pm.

12oz bottle - Pours clear yellow/gold with a very thin head. It has a spicy aroma of coriander and clover with citrus notes as well. The flavor is sweet and spicy with some citrus. It’s medium bodied and leaves a touch of coriander in the finish. Very solid.

12oz bottle. Pours hazy gold with a decent white head. Smells of lemons, spices, and wheat. Tastes of lemon zest, candy sugar, carriander, wheat, and pear. Very nice creamy mouthfeel, nice body, and long sweet aftertaste. Pretty good brew.

BPW #22 12 oz bottle picked up at FUBOB’s. Appearance is sunshine gold. The nose on this one is full of Belgium yeasts with a holiday spice to it. Flavors follow with a spiced holiday cookie flavor profile.
