Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

pours hazy orange, nice orange floral aroma. mouthfeel is bigger and flavor is also a bit bolder, but does not seem much more than other witbiers other than the abv which is well hidden. not bad but pricey for what it is.
Poured light gold with a white head. Slight citrus on the nose but nothing else. Taste was typical witbeir but very hot. Some orange and floral notes. Overall nothing much here.
Pours orange with a white head. Aroma is sweet, malty, and fruity.Flavor is malty, fruity, light, lightly bitter, and boozy. Calling this a wit is a joke.
