Belgian Wit yeast was selected for this hoppy Belgian pale ale. It was paired with coriander, sweet orange peel, bitter orange peel, and grapefruit peel added in the boil. Cashmere, Denail, Amarillo, and New Zealand Wakatu were paired with the yeast and fruit. The hop additions in the kettle, whirlpool and dry hop were utilized with Hazy IPA techniques in mind.

On tap at brewery (Version 3, dry hopped Belgian Pale at 5.6%):
A nicely hazed pale yellow, fuzzy impressions of objects show through. Head is nice, but not too tall, with spots of lacing marking its height.
Nose of hay, dense banana bread, coriander, nutmeg, and a very, very light bit of funk. A clean opening with bready cracker malt gets a little earthy spice. Carbonation is moderate and breaks things up. Orange notes add a sweetness that is countered by some dry grass bitter notes. Balanced in the end, this is a fun little ride of a pale ale.
