Cigar City Brewing Florida Cracker – Witbier at 5.5% ABV | 15 IBU (C$4.35 at Collective, 473 ml, packaged on 20-Apr-2020, acquired 7-May-2020, reviewed 16-May-2020)
Appearance: hazy pale gold with one fat finger of fluffy white head diminishing gradually to a thin cap & ring, minimal spotty lacing. (3/5) Aroma: orange & lime zest, banana, wheat, coriander. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate spice, low bitter, light tart. (8/10) Palate: medium body, moderate-lively carbonation, off-dry medium duration mildly astringent finish. (4/5)
More coriander in the finish than on the front end, which in my opinion is exactly how it should be: in my experience, if you get the coriander right away, by the time the pint is done there’s literally nothing else going on. This is nicely balanced, with reasonable spice and bitterness in the finish. (15/20)
7.5/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
