As the sun sets, we look for a light that shines through the night. Refreshing and glistening with fruit notes, an Aurora Beer-ialis of sorts, Quite Brite is just right.

Solid Belgian style witbier. Good level of foam as well as good aromas and quite cloudy looking. Nothing wrong with this brew. The one I had was a bit old so I can only imagine how good it is fresh!

Overall a decent Belgian style wheat ale. Eady drinking. Pours with a small head. Nice yellow orange pour with no after taste. Will buy again if can find on sale.

12 oz can
Pours hazed and wit beer/hefe like. Moderate frothy cap.
Earthy and yeasty sniff.
Fresh, mildly citric and a bit zesty, with notes of mango, lime, and a snap of mild ginger in the finish.
Workable wit/hefe style beer from the quality crafters of Bell’s.
Worth a try.

1 PINT can
Served in an imperial nonic pint glass
This beer pours an orangish yellow color and is hazy. It is topped with a couple inches of beige head that leaves nice lacing.
I get some orange and coriander notes. Smells nice. Been a long while since I had a wit.
I get that wheat beer taste before the orange and coriander rush over my palate. Clean and refreshing.
Medium bodied with a pillowy mouthfeel
This is a real nice gas station single can find. I probably would not have bought a multi pack. I'm glad I picked this up. It's a real nice beer.

A very good Hoegaarden clone. You either love it or hate it due to the spice, orange peel, and wheat. Fortunately for me, I love it!

Poured into a tall clear pint glass. Appearance is cloudy and golden. Modest white head with modest retention and lacing.
Smells like a nice Belgian beer. Notes of banana, cloves, coriander, spices, yeast esters, wheat, yeast , citrus, and bubblegum.
Can taste the wheat and orange peel mostly. Spices and other notes take a backseat. Kind of soapy in a way. Body is medium-light.
