Victory’s Whirlwind Witbier

June 1st, 2008

My last review of this beer over a year ago closed out with the following comment:

“It is a solid beer and nice addition to the Victory lineup; like an 8-8 football season.”

Well, chalk this one in the Wild Card position for the playoffs. A much improved Whirlwind Wit was tasted recently by yours truly. Before this recent tasting, this beer’s taste of yeasty, citrus, somewhat spicy goodness practically vanished in the back of your throat. An improved version has been created and is available at Victory’s excellent new brewpub.
There is still a fading, yielding taste that cascades down your throat, but (believe me) there is a more noticeable taste of the Belgian yeast and citrus carbonation slowly hitting your taste buds… Well done.
