Flying Dog Woody Creek White


Belgian Style Wit Beer
Seasonal
Unfiltered
Flying Dog Brewery
Frederick, Maryland, USA
4.8%abv
18 IBU

Appearance: dull hazy golden body with a white head that does not stay around very long and leaves very little to no lacing sticking to the side of the glass.

Aroma: spice of coriander, dirty wheat, and a touch of citrus meat

Flavors: big time Wit Beer spice, the coriander is leading the way with the orange peel right behind and then I notice the dusty wheat and earthy yeast. 

This is hitting the spot.  I think my brain and taste buds are still thinking IPA from two months ago.


Mouthfeel: low carbonation, low to moderate citrus peel bitterness, Oh give it to a Bud Light drinker and they will think that this is the atomic bomb of bitterness – it is funny just watching their face.  Nice linger wit beer flavor on the palate. 

To the Point: The coriander was a little too much in the face on the first few sips but, settled down after that.  A nice tasting Wit Beer.  I would buy a six pack again.
