22oz bottle from Hop City, Atlanta, GA, USA.
Pour gives a lemon/butterscotch color with a disappointing head, disappointing lace and pretty much no retention. Just not good enough for the style. The pour also lacks any body or depth of color mainly because the requisite swirling to collect the yeasties at the bottom of the bottle yields nothing!
A light acid in the aroma but the failure of this beer is in the taste. It is AMAZINGLY watery and lacks any organic, hay/grass note as well. Impact = zero. It quite literally feels, tastes and drinks like a watered down Hefe. Not offensive in any way, but dreadfully shallow.
A pretty poor beer in terms of the color, appearance, nose taste and character. I’d say avoid this and purchase one of the scores of better Wit’s of Hefe’s out there.
