Central City Brewers + Distillers White Ale – Witbier at 5% ABV

Central City Brewers + Distillers White Ale Witbier at 5% ABV (Gift – thanks, DougB!, 355 ml, packaging date 7-Jul-2015)

Appearance: cloudy straw, short, short-lived off-white head with no lacing. (2/5) Aroma: doughy wheat, coriander, light orange zest. (5/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter, light peppery spice. (5/10) Medium-light body, moderate carbonation, off-dry lightly spicy finish. (3/5)

A fairly mediocre wit. Retention and lacing are bad, and the nose is reminiscent of old lady soap. Nothing terrible stands out, but that’s about as good as it gets, unfortunately. A surprising swing and a miss for a brewery that can usually be relied upon for a solid performance. (10/20)

5/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
