Bottle at RBESG Grand Tasting 05. Imperial Wit!! Whatever next! It’s just like a normal Wit for a start, but it just goes on and on. Dryer than a standard Belgian White, with the usual lemon and chalk. Good stuff, but no more than 20% bigger than a normal Wit.

Bomber shared with and courtesy of gputty. Cloudy, dirty yellow pour. Big coriander and wheat nose. Nice spicy flavor, a bit flat bodied and thicker than most. Decent citrus zest in the finish.

Cloudy yellow appearance. Taste is sour with lemons, bananas, and grapefruit. This is a good representation of a Belgian white. The spiciness is a little too overwhelming.

Large bubbles cling to the side of my glass, slightly masking this beer’s hazy, deep golden body under a fizzy white head. Delicate florals dance above the top of sharp yeasts with light farmyard notes. Sweet pear and apple notes as well. Tart apple and lemon flavors carried in a light, spritzy body make for a refreshing, summery brew.

Interesting thick cloudy pour produces an extremely cloudy golden body topped by a dense stark white head that laces very well. The aroma is very citrusy with soem apple and light spice. The flavor is loaded with lemony citrus that makes it very refreshing on a hot summer day like today. The palate is not as thick as I was worried it was going to be based on the pour, instead it is crisp lighlt prickly with not too much heft to it. Overall a very nice beer, one that I was doubting would be any good but surprised me.

Poured a pale cloudy yellow with a generous white frothy head. The aroma was sweet, citrusy, definite orange, coriander, mild balanced funk, slight alcohol. Very appealing and balanced. The flavor shows alcohol, sweet oranges, spicy coriander, mild funk. Well balanced flavor as well. Shows very little carbonation on the palate, very smooth and silky not lively at all.

Bottle. Pours a hazy golden yellow with a white head. Aroma of citrus, yeast, banana, lemon and notes of coriander. Flavor is sweet and yeasty with orange zest, banana, cloves and spices with a medium body and a clean and crisp finish.

Sampled with The Mad Indian. Pours hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma of spices, lemon, and wheat. The flavor is sweet, spices are present, and nice lemony citrus. Good brew.
