Tasting: | A dark goldish lively carbonated beverage, with a slight hint of orange fruity smell. The first taste has a sense of dryness that makes you want to take another drink..and another. The body has thin light sensation once in your mouth. The hops contribute a crisp palate cleansing taste. I would have to compare this brew to a Blue Moon. This beverage definitely is a Wit and one worth making again. |
