Great Lakes Holy Moses Witbier
Drinking fresh on tap now, had in the bottle, July, 2004. The notes:
Great Lakes Holy Moses White Ale, 7/2004
Very light yellowish color, under a big, snow-white head, the perfect picture of a witbier, really.
Aroma, ahhhh!, light, citric, but spicey as all-get-out, zesty, uplifting...ni-i-ice!
Taste: zing-a-zing-ahhhh!, as the Spice Girls would say...refreshing, slightly citrus, but so delicious, and easy to toss back...spicy and light citric flavor sendure on the palate, and remain on the tongue, very appreciated. Really remains, and that's a good thing, y'all.
Wow, very distinct, very delcious!
Matches admirably against all the best witbiers I've ever had...good job, Great Lakes! Yum!
-------------------------------------
Seven years later, the truest line in that review is the Spice Girls reference. Zing-a-zing-ah, is all you need to say.
