An American interpretation of a classic Belgian wheat ale. A hazy light golden color gives this beer its name. This light and refreshing ale is brewed with just a hint of coriander and orange zest giving way to a citrus finish.

Had this on-tap. It's a local beer so I thought since its getting warmer why not? I'll give it a try. Nice white ale -- or I guess a witbier. Straw colored gold with a white head. Not much in the way of smell other than the orange hints. It's not an IPA so its not overpowering in that way. It had a very drinkable taste. You could have several of these. Overall, this a very drinkable local beer. I like it.

From the can, it pours a slightly hazy yellow color with a modest, soon diminishing white head that ends up as a light ring. The nose gets some spices and a bit of light malt. The mouth gets the same: spices and a light malt flavor.

Okay--Very similar to Blue Moon. Not a lot of taste. Taste a bit of Clive and pepper and not much else. Works on a hot summer day. Not one of my favs.

12oz can poured into a pint
Pours a hazy pale golden color with a fizzy white head. Smells of pepper, coriander & toasted wheat. Tastes of cracked pepper, orange zest, coriander & toasted wheat. Medium-light body with medium carbonation, foamy mouthfeel with a crisp finish. Pretty good, peppery notes are a bit overbearing at time and take away from drinkability

6 oz. on tap at the brewery.
Appearance: Hazy straw with a big white head.
Aroma: A little clove, some wheat, some grass. Lemon, too.
Taste: Follows the nose. Pretty standard wit flavors.
Mouthfeel: Light and easy.
Overall: Pretty well executed wit. Good beer for a hot day.
