Boom Island Blood Orange Witness Witbier

Boom Island Blood Orange Witness Witbier. 5 % ABV. 13 IBU.
Boom Island Brewing, Minnetonka, MN.

Looking very bloody. Bright crimson, clear, slim white/pinkish head.

In the nose: Tart, sweet, fruity. Bright orange notes in the nose. Sharp and vibrant.

In the mouth: Bold fruit, overpowering the subtleties of the witbier style. Smooth, light bodied, easy drinkability. Blood orange flavor shines high over the wheat and the orange and the coriander. Good ol' witbier, with a twist.
Tasty beer, and you can drink it.

With its light, hazy blond col­or and fluffy white head, this is a clas­sic Bel­gian-style wheat fruit­ed with blood oranges. Slight tart­ness opens into a refresh­ing smooth­ness, with faint flo­ral notes that linger on the back.
