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.

Bottle 12fl.oz.
Unclear light to medium yellow orange color with a small, fizzy, fair lacing, fully diminishing, off-white to white head. Aroma is moderate malty, fruity old, overripped mango, light to moderate yeasty, gauze notes. Flavor is moderate sweet and light to moderate bitter with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is watery to oily, carbonation is soft. [20090321]

Bottle. Weak plastic aroma, not too unpleasant though. Orange colour, a lot of floating yeast. Almost no head. The flavour is slightly sweet, has some pumpkin spice, whatever that is. Mild milk note, perhaps a little paper.

Hazy yellow colour. Aroma of orange yoghurt, with fluffy maltiness and sublte coriander. Soft, smooth malty palate, kind of marshmallowy. Spices remain subdued. This is a subtle and stylish brew.

Unfiltered pale yellow body, big head. Spicy wheat aroma. Slightly tart flavor, spicy too. Flavor improves as it warms. Very bubbly on the tongue.

bottle Dull hazy yellow with tiny swiftly and completely fading white head, very effervescent body. Shy aroma of wet hay, terrebentine, lemon and juniper. Tart presence in mouth, mostly wheaty tart, lemony with some orange, coriander and not much else, wet hay finish, overcarbonated and boring wheat presence. A disappointment considering who brewed it I must say.
