The color of this beer reminds me of lemony sodas like Wink or Squirt with a thick white head. Not much going on in the aroma but there is a hint of yeast and citrus. Very light tasting with just a hint of citrus and a watery finish. Pretty boring really.

I really enjoyed the tartness of this one, Its decent in the style, but It could be better, the tarntess was the best thing about this one for me. Decent flavor, average spice, I’d drink it again.

Very pale and cloudy with a dull wheaty citrus aroma. Flavour is mainly wheat with a bit of banana and some faint spicyness.

Bottle - very yeasty aroma with a wheaty nose, as well. Not much to look at. Looks rather like Bud Light. Very pale yellow body with a white head that is gone rather quickly. The flavor is nice, though. Initial fruit taste that gives way to a wheaty finish. Sharp mouthfeel despite a lack of much visual carbonation. Not bad! Would be quite refreshing on a hot summer day after cutting grass. Or maybe I’m just look forward to a hot summer day since it is the middle of February.

A very slight aroma of grapefruit, cherry and apple. Extremely pale body which is just too light for my preferences. Medium white head with a bland, watered down taste. This beer really needs more body, this is taking into account even it’s style. There are far better ones out there.

(330 ml can: Holiday Wine Cellar in Escondido, CA) Okay, so it’s not the most flavorful witbier out there, but it certainly looks gorgeous in the glass. Pale golden yellow body is fully cloudy and the dense, fluffy, white head fills the top inch and a half of the glass, rising just to the point of overflow. Very lemony nose introduces the flavor quite accurately. Is there anything but lemon in this? Slightly tart, hints of coriander and orange peel, but the lemony citrus is dominant. Clean, nicely-carbonated palate is very refreshing, but also seems a touch thin and watery. Head retention has been excellent, and lacing is a moth-eaten curtain. Not too much here, but it’s pleasant, refreshing and easy to drink.
