Notes:
This AmeriCAN take on the Belgian Classic Wit, featuring orange peel and coriander spice emanated from the basement blues music legacy Dave McIntyre (Oskar Blusologist) built at the original Oskar Blues Grill & Brew in Lyons, CO. On draft for over a decade, Priscilla's zesty citrus and light fresh baked bread aromas mix with spicy, fruity fermentation. Light bodied with a subtle savory spice accent and a dry, lightly tart finish you can nearly feel the flicker of the neon and sounds of the King. White Wit Wheat.

Medium mouthfeel.
Banana & apple flavors up front; mild caramel & faint clove notes on the finish.

On can. Pale golden colour, small head with medium retention, good lace. Aroma of orange peel, coriander, cloves, pepper. Medium body, sticky texture, good carbonation. Taste of cloves, coriander, oranges, pepper. A decent belgian with style.

Not expecting much since it's canned in 6/24/16 almost two years ago. Poured into a standard pint
Wow I expected sediment but got a 1/2 of froth atop a very hazy bright yellow beer looks as fresh as canned! Bready grassy wheat smell mostly standard fanfare of the style. Actually quite good a bit more lemon flavor than the standard blue moon with orange and coriander flavors highlighting. Body is pretty light to medium easy to sip or crush.
Overall I got to hand it to these guys its not a bad beer and holds the test of time. Well worth the dollar I spent on the can!

This is a hard one to pin down. Poured from a can into a tulip glass. Cloudy yellow with good head and lacing. Sweet bready smell. Sweet grass, lemon taste. A bit watery but a good beer.

Slightly hazy golden color with white head. Aroma had some bready, honey biscuit notes and spicy coriander. Taste is sweet at first with wheat and coriander notes, quite spicy overall, even some hops on the finish. Light body with medium carbonation. Really decent wheat ale, just a bit too spicy for my taste.

Poured into a mug, the appearance was a semi-ruddy/burnt yellow color with a thin finger’s worth of white foamy head that sustains nicely and ends up dissipating at a nice pace. Moderate carbonation could be seen rising. The aroma has a sweet wheaty, semi-citrusy, low spicy (coriander-esque), Belgian yeasty esters and then a touch of bubblegum. The flavor leans sweetly through the previous mention of those aromas and the coriander seems to only compliment nicely. Clean sweet wheaty biting / semi-bubblegum sort of aftertaste sliding into a quick wet sweet finish. On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation feels fairly low. Nice crisp wheatiness lays down on the tongue. Overall, another witbier by an American brewer coming to what I say "session standards." Good for what it is and I would prefer to have again in the Summer, but honestly, doesn’t compare to it’s Belgian counterparts. Though, I could have again for me.

I'm a fan of Wits. This one pours a typical golden beer color with a large white head and lacing. A yeast and bread smell turns into a citrus and coriander flavor. A little more carbonation than I like but not bad. Overall I'd buy again.

L: gold with a slight haze under a thin white cap with poor retention.
S: The aroma is medium low with traces of bread crumb, orange peel and coriander. Fermentation aromas are low.
T: The flavors have some fruit - citrus and orange peel leading to a slight tartness on the finish. A medium sweet start finishes juicy.
F: Medium light body and medium high carbonation.
O: Light refreshing beer.

A bubbly slight citrus, banana, white wheat, with the bubbles of a while and the wheat taste, good beer.
Taste Rating in Words: fresh baked bread, banana bread maybe. wholesome goodness.

Poured from a 12 ounce can into a Shaker pint glass, "canned on" date 9-9-16.
APPEARANCE: pours a cloudy, straw color with less than one-finger white head that dissipated until a thin, broken layer of small bubbles remained, there is some lacing on the glass, lighter than average carbonation.
SMELL: banana bread and lemon citrus, very pleasant to the nose.
TASTE: the taste follows the nose, initially banana and bread then a lemon citrus note and some spice at the end.
PALATE: medium body and lighter carbonation.
OVERALL: this is a fine wit beer, I would buy this again no problem and would recommend to anyone who enjoys the style.
