This light-bodied Belgian style wheat beer pours a cloudy yellow-orange color and gives off aromas of sweet orange peel, cracked coriander, and freshly baked wheat bread.

This was the last beer that I picked up at the Bottle King in Chatham not too long ago. Love Source's Belgian and Farmhouse-inspired beers and this was no exception as it was just as enjoyable and lovely as something imported from overseas.
True to form, this poured a hazy goldenrod with plenty of soft foam topping it off. All of the soapy lacing left behind was along the top third of my glass as no rings were visible among the suds. A *ton* of banana was in the nose, with the sweet orange, wheat, and coriander relegated to a background role as the same was true for the taste. This reminded me of Hoegaarden or Paulaner as this was just as well-crafted, lively, and timeless as those European classics as it was nearly impossible to find any fault with this brew. No need for a piece of citrus to cut this, as this was unassuming and enjoyable as is with a near-perfect ease of enjoyment from start to finish.
The ABV% posted on the can was 5.3 but even if it was 5.8, that wouldn't be a deterrent since I never felt or tasted it. The wheat and bread were never felt and only served to enhance this beer and it's citrus notes, as a nice slickness lingered on my palate long after this went down. Canned on 6/7 with "FEELING WITTY" written below it, you might say the same after having this. Source seems to excel at nearly every style they brew and that was true here, as I'd easily reach for this again. Indeed, this was truly refreshing!
