Black Wit-O is a fun looking Halloween themed dark wheat ale, which is somewhat unusual. I had to try it.

Look: dark brown with an inch off-white head

Aroma: moderate aromas of wheat, coffee, licorice

Taste: the taste is wheat biscuit, and a little bit of coffee and licorice.

Feel: light to medium body and the alcohol was hidden, but it also felt a bit watery to me.

I am particularly fond of this beer. The look is quite flat, cherry-black with no head and limited lacing, but it seem to fit the part. The smell is outstanding, and gives you the impression that you first sip will hit home hard, dark, roasted, licorice, coffee, maybe slight chocolate. The sip you've been waiting for is underwelmingly mild, but as you sit on it, it's sweet and roasted flavors linger and grow to a medium audacity comparative to the smell. The feel is light carbonation, weak body.
This is nice for me because I enjoy a good porter, but I am usually scared to venture into trying them. This beer is nothing to be afraid of, besides it's name. :)

Black Wit-o. This one is a little strange! That being said, there are some good things to say about it. Almost no lacing but a spiderweb like head that disappeared fairly quickly.

Smells of roasted malts, chocolate, and licorice. Not as stinky as some other porters, etc. Taste follows suit. But this is supposed to be a dark wheat ale anyway! I'd say the taste gives it a 30/70, wheat/dark balance with the wheat just having enough influence to give it a refreshing, easy drinking, even sessionable characteristic that normally doesn't appear in beers this dark.

Alcohol hidden extremely well, this is just a mash of flavors. I could imagine myself as a kid enjoying it bahaha. I bought this hoping for this kind of experience and me and my fiancé are having and am quite happy with the end result. Adding another cool Texas beer to the list!

Poured from a bottle into a pint glass. Dark brown color, thin short lived head, decent lacing. Not to fragrant, but some dark toast and chocolate. These things come out more pronounced in the taste, which I liked. Not bad!

Pours a pitch black color with a finger width brown foamy head. Head retention and lacing are both good. Has a black licorice and mild java aroma. Dark malty taste with java, black licorice and very mild chocolate. Moderate to heavy bodied with mild carbonation. Nice smooth, silky taste.
