From a 12 oz can
Appearance: looks like thin cloudy beer 2
Smell: lemonade
Taste: lemon water with slight yeast
Feel: thin, watery
Overall: very disappointing.
From Hoeggarden to Celis, to Allagash White, I have loved this style. Even the Special Blue Moon 20 year release ( which was much betterthan the regular production swill), beats this bad example down. Poor showing Guinness.

Amber/gold appearance; large head that receded quickly and left little lacing. Aroma of light spice, yeast and modest amount of citrus. Well rounded taste as a mild honey-like sweetness exists alongside the tart, spicy hop flavors. Coriander more pronounced in the aftertaste. Dry, average length finish.

The beer has a great look and good smell for a Wit beer. I was hoping for a bit more tang but there is none. Nice spice flavor. It is a very clean tasting beer with an extremely clean finish. I don't taste much fruitiness mostly wheat and spices. The Guiness yeast is almost to clean for the style. Very easy to drink. Guiness did a great job I just wish there was more tanginess.

Medium bodied with prickly ,about medium carbonation
Aroma is really nice mix of coriander, orange peel, sugary orange candy, malt, rich yeasty bread
Taste is a bit drier than aroma suggested but all the elements in the aroma show up.
Overall an outstanding brew that's definitely worth trying
