Rich sourdough yeast sediment provides dense viscosity to citric-sunned amber-hazed Belgian-styled witbier. Bitter Saaz-hopped orange-peeled lemon juicing caresses tangy apricot-tangerine-apple fruiting, mild coriander-spiced banana ripeness, and sugar wafer reminder. But sharp cider souring works against summery pleasantries just a tad.
Lackadaisical moderate-bodied chartreuse-hazed Belgian-styled witbier from France brings sunny lemon zest, sour-candied tartness, and dry Kaffir lime illusions to fizzy herbal-spiced modicum. At the midst, grassy-hopped juniper berry, orange peel, and peppercorn bittering outweighs coriander-spiced browned banana sweetness. A certain something lacks throughout.
Neatly spiced hazy golden Belgian-styled witbier maintains mild candi-sugared orange-peeled coriander theme above muted banana-chipped clove sweetness and tart lemon zest souring. Refreshing menthol-eucalyptus herbage and grassy heather hops promote subsidiary ginger ale sensation of efficient light-bodied rep.
Balmy limited edition Belgian-styled witbier aged and sold as boozy Grand Cru brings tangy white-peppered yellow fruiting to frisky coriander spicing of yellow-hazed medium body. Tart orange-peeled lemon-bruised white grape proliferation enhances creamy butterscotch, vanilla, and banana liqueur whir as tertiary peach, pear, and cinnamon apple illusions receive gin-soaked candi-sugared sweetening. Though opulent peculiarities mesh well, its understated warmth and overall richness deteriorate over time.
Instantly likable golden-hazed crystal-malted Belgian-styled witbier maintains fruit-spiced integrity. Coriander-clove spicing engages lemon zest, mandarin orange, tangerine, apricot, papaya, and pineapple illusions countering peppery-hopped orange peel bittering. Subsidiary whiskey-soured white wine tenacity overrides banana bubblegum undertones to doughy white-breaded wheat spine.
‘60s hippie-cultured ‘We’re all bozos on the bus’ snicker and ‘this is not a Double IPA’ disclaimer aside, this recession-proof pale ale won’t scare away budgeted hopheads. Bright floral-fruited frontage receives piney-hopped grapefruit-peeled bittering. Tangy peach, apple, and tangerine illusions enjoined by tropical pineapple-mango seduction to rye-dried cracked wheat spine.
Advertised orange peel-coriander blend perfectly suits dry light-bodied hazy-yellowed Belgian-styled witbier. Sour lemon zest and herbaceous mint undercurrent rally above skeletal fizzy-hopped white-breaded wheat base. Funky fungi-like wildflower yeast reminder, reminiscent of farmhouse ale, infiltrates backend.
Palest straw-hazed pearly-headed moderate body (bottled by nearby High Point Brewery) is supposed ‘twisted Belgian-styled wheat beer.’ Soft yellow-fruited summer appeal buttressed by musty lemongrass souring overriding earthen grassy-hopped barnyard, horse-blanket, and hay acridity. Raw-honeyed lemon pith midst lightly embitters peppery floral murk succumbed by lackluster white-breaded wheat spine. Brewery defunct: 2016.
Blurry beige-hazed puffy white-headed fruit ale hides sweet ‘n sour cranberry motif beneath softly acidic limey brimstone tartness, lemon-candied cherry-apple souring, and orange-peeled cinnamon-coriander spicing. Herbal raw-honeyed twinge seeps into white-breaded wheat spine. Light red-fruited finish tails off a tad.
Elegant pale gold-hazed moderate-bodied witbier with earthen wildflower-like Belgian yeast funk brings peppery herbal hop spicing to cushy white-breaded wheat-floured bottom. Clove-sweetened blueberry-cherry wisp fades to lemon-soured grapefruit-orange-apricot-pineapple seduction. Baked apple nuance whisked away by tertiary lemongrass, coriander, and chamomile prompting.
Peculiarly refreshing yellow-hazed Belgian-styled witbier blends spices, herbs, and fruit nuances in silkily bizarre manner. Musty raw-honeyed banana souring grazes white-peppered spearmint-jasmine-ginger freshness and clove-coriander-chamomile-anise spicing, but advertised tropical fruiting is overrated. Quirky champagne-fizzed bruised apple, rotted apricot, white peach, and putrefied lemon illusions not as unpleasant as it sounds. Photo courtesy of www.halftimebeverage.com
Fragrant black and blueberry mouthfeel more pronounced than phenol-hopped cranberry souring. Metallic twang soaks up tart fruited candy influence to soapy blackberry finish. Needs thicker malt seepage and sturdier white-breaded spine. On second passing, ripe blackberry-raspberry fruiting had firmer honeyed wheat spine and grazing Mandarin orange, tangerine, and peach snip.
