22oz bomber received from my brother as a Christmas present and forgotten until now. No freshness date on the silkscreened bottle, though it indicates it could have been brewed either in Newport or Issaquah.

Pours a slightly hazy gold color, with lots and lots of bubbles visibly shooting skyward. Despite this bubbly busyness there's only the barest quarter-inch of white foam making a short appearance, though a foam collar did hang around for quite a while.

A little bit spicy in the nose with some faint, biscuity maltiness. Doesn't exactly smell like a flavor bomb.

Surprisigly, there's quite a bit more going on flavor-wise than I expected from the nose. It starts off with a cider-like refreshing fruitiness, then things get a little more spicy, with coriander and orange peel standing out. Note that none of these flavors are particularly strong, and it's not as tart as most witbier, but it makes for a pleasant drinking experience. The taste ends on a modest dry note that I found preferable to the cottonmouthy finishes I have encountered with many hard ciders.

Fairly light bodied, with a soft yet slightly prickly mouthfeel.

A surprisingly refreshing beer, especially since it sat forgotten for about three months. I'll have to try a fresh one to compare it to.
