Commercial Description:
A swirling dynamo of flavor, with a steady calm of satisfaction at its heart, that's Whirlwind Witbier. Offering a tamed tempest of flavors both spicy and sublime, this softly fermented ale greets the nose and tingles the tongue. Imported Belgian yeast charges Whirlwind with an energy all its own. It is a refreshing interpretation of the classic, Belgian 'white beer' style.

From a bottle pours slightly cloudy golden color. Not much head that leaves no lacing. Not the best wheat beer I have had but no that bad.

A cloudy straw color with a small head. Aroma of yeast, bananas and citrus. Taste is much the same, with some coriander. Light body. Thin texture. A solid entry.

Pours a cloudy pale yellow with a few floaties. Small white head. Tangy aroma of lemon and yeast, light spice. Nice. Taste is grainy and bitter, certainly not something your casual wheat beer drinker could handle. Contained citrus/fruitiness, leaves room for some solid bitterness and faint spice. Body is pretty light, probably ok for the style. Tasty, although somewhat mild compared to the more aggressive Belgian versions.

Witbiers are not my favorite, but this one was very good. Extremely spicy and refreshing, slightly yeasty. It has a citrus taste with low bitterness. Very easy to drink, especially outside in the summer.

This beer is hazy and hay-coloered with a tiny white head. The aroma is predominantly of clove and maybe some pear. The flavor is a light sizzle of citrus: simple lemon and clove that ends with a plastic afterfeel. Good lawnmowing beer.

Poured a lightly hazed pale yellow color with a small white head. Yeasty, spiced and tart aroma. It smells like Cel-Ray soda. Spiced and coriander malty flavor. Light bitterness on the finish. Light body.

Smooth, creamy aromas of light orange citrus and spice, plenty of yeast. Smooth, full mouthfeel. Citrus and apricot on the tongue with creamy wheat and a tinge of spice on the finish. Not as heady as other wits but still a nice cloudy golden yellow hue in the glass.

I thought this was pretty decent. Nice cloudy yellow colour, I didn’t get much of an aroma from it, but had a nice yeasty body and a good citrus ting to it.
