March 7th, 2015 - With a buttery scent, a dash of soap, and a hit of lavender, Ritual's Wit's End comes across as a surprisingly floral witbier, with maybe a little diacetyl rum amok, though it could be an intentional note, too. The clarity of the brew - golden and still - matches the crisp palate of the brew. Light and tangy-twangy, it ends with a clear tortilla chip note, and a touch of lime citrus to finish.

It has a really nice hazy look to it, and it goes down as refreshing as it looks. Has a really sharp crisp citrus flavor (orange, maybe even lemon), very light bite of hop and spice. My only disappointment was a real lack of body to the finish, which I likeep about witbier and hefeweizens. Still, this would be an excellent beer for a hot summer day or after a tiring day at work.

Poured 22oz into Erdinger weisbier glass, sweat full and slightly fruity aroma, initial taste of malt and a touch bitter, dryer than most Bavarian wheat beers and much dryer than most Belgians. Overall a good wheat beer, but Saint Archer's white is in my opinion a better example of domestically produced wheat beer.

Served in a pint glass
A: Golden, hay, light honey color, and brilliantly clear (not characteristic of the Witbier style probably due to filtering out the yeast). Thin white head with good amount of lacing; small uniform bubbles likely from malt fermentation
S: Orange, peppery, spices, floral scent from the hops, no off odors. Not a very strong bouquet, not a whole lot there
T: Spices, floral, potpourri, a little hoppy with a malty finish and bitterness towards the end at the back of mouth.
M: Astringency from the amount of carbonation present; medium bodied beer. Medium to high carbonation.
O: Very refreshing and crisp. Not totally representative of a true Belgian Witbier, however overall a good beer
