DrededBrethren (10), Palm, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 17, 2007 I only had the 12oz. version. Gold with a slow diminishing white head. Smells of noble hops and citrus. Very high carbination, effervescent. Initial sweetness that dries up very nicely, warming your throat its entire way down. Light hand on the spices makes this very easy to drink, not overly sweet and not at all astringent. I had the idea to brew a double white but I had no idea of the potential of this style. Awesome beer. I paired it with Vodka penne and it really brought out the coriandor in the flavor. FROTHINGSLOSH (1961), GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 16, 2007 Updated: Aug 27, 2007Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy straw color with a large white head. The aroma was strong dry spice and lemon. The flavor was dry, tangy and a little tart with noticeable coriander element and a tart lemony undertone. The finish is long, spicy and dry. dmac (1420), Toms River, New Jersey, USA Apr 10, 2007 12 oz bottle. Pours a hazy straw color with an average size white head. Light grainy malt aroma with hints of coriander. Initial flavor is of wheat followed by some spicyness that mellows out into a slight sweetness. Overall a refreshing witbier. rocbyter (902), Waterbury, Connecticut, USA Apr 9, 2007 Light malty and yeasty aroma. Very cloudy almost opaque yellow color with a small white head. Little taste in front then gets sweet. Lightly spicy finish. Maverick34 (686), New York, USA Apr 7, 2007 Pours cloudy pale yellow w/ medium white head and lacing. Very lemony aroma, taste is slightly acidic, not very carbonated, w/a bit of a salty bite to finish. Chantdaddy (19), New Jersey, USA Apr 1, 2007 One of the first beers I actually purchased because of its RateBeer rating... Pours softly with a slightly less vigorous head than most other Wits I’ve had. The color is almost an ethereal golden honey... I’ve never seen quite this color in a beer before. Has good depth and classic Belgian Wit flavors, but, at the same time, a bit delicate; "Double" in this case is only an indicator of alcoholic strength, and nothing else. Definately a good wit... I’m not quite sure if I’d give it the extremely high ranking it currently has, but I’ll most likely pick up another 6 pack of this at some point. fordest (1954), Santee/San Diego, California, USA Apr 1, 2007 12 oz bottle shared with padrefan98. Very nice looking classic for a wit. Aroams were marginal, but the flavor was great. Lots of citrus with corriander notes. Pretty good. padrefan98 (787), (San Diego) Santee, California, USA Apr 1, 2007 12 oz bottle thanks to dmac621. Pours a hazy yellow, and taste of some orange, and sour flavors. I wasnt impressed at first, but towards the end I began to enjoy this beer.
