White Water Witte
Lager Heads Smokehouse & Brewing Co.

This is just what the doctor ordered. A brew with loads of taste but not a big load.

It pours a lovely gold with some fizz. Translucent.. The aroma is weak but a nice floral and yeasty smell. The taste is a very mild yeasty, slightly tart. It is easy but not insulting and it lingers on the tongue for a while.

Recommended, I did not see a date on the can, but I am pretty sure it was not fresh, but that isn't super important for the style.

12 ounce can into pint glass, canned on 3/30/2018. Pours moderately hazy medium golden yellow color with a 1 finger fairly dense white head with solid retention, that reduces to a thin spotty lace cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Good appearance. Aromas of lemon, orange peel, pear, red apple, coriander, chamomile, peppercorn, clove, light banana/bubblegum, wheat, cracker, biscuit dough, herbal, grass, and yeast earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of fruity/spicy yeast, spices, pale/wheat malts, and light earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Taste of lemon, orange peel, pear, red apple, coriander, chamomile, peppercorn, clove, light banana/bubblegum, wheat, cracker, biscuit dough, herbal, grass, and yeast earthiness. Light herbal/grassy bitterness, yeast spiciness, and wheat tang/tartness on the finish. Lingering notes of lemon, orange peel, pear, red apple, coriander, chamomile, peppercorn, clove, light banana/bubblegum, wheat, cracker, biscuit dough, herbal, grass, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/spicy yeast, spices, pale/wheat malts, and light earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitter/spiciness balance, and no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from bitter/spiciness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready/grainy, fairly crisp, and lightly sticky balanced mouthfeel that is nice. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5.1%. Overall this is a very good witbier. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/spicy yeast, spices, pale/wheat malts, and light earthy hop flavors; very smooth and fairly crisp/refreshing to drink with the mildly bitter/spicy/drying finish. Very flavorful and not watery for the ABV, a little too heavy on body. A little underwhelming, but otherwise spot on style expectations. Touch heavy on the banana. Very well balanced Wit yeast, spices, and pale/wheat malts; with mild earthy hops against sweetness. A very enjoyable offering.
