12oz bottle poured into my tall wheat/pilsner glass. The body is a hazy straw yellow in appearance, I made no effort to get the extra yeast from the bottom of the bottle into this glass but I may on the next. Huge white head results from the pour, a little sticker than I expected, good retention and rings of lace are left around the glass. The nose is very nice, musty, with clove, orange, rye dough, bananas and hints of pineapple and white pepper. This beer is mildly sweet and as smooth as silk, really light in mouthfeel with the yeast fluffing it up a little bit so it’s not too slick. I can taste the wheat malt, the orange flavor here seems a bit sweeter than other wits I’ve had and it works really well. The obligatory flavors of clove and coriander are here as well accompanied by cracked white pepper in the finish. A good witbier I can see myself drinking more of this in the future.
