Horny Goat Wheat is a Belgian-Style white beer, craft brewed with wheat, malted barley, hops and a bit of orange peel and coriander. It's natural haze from yeast and wheat make it a classic to be enjoyed on its own, or with a slice of orange. Horny Goat Wheat loves big cans... those little 12 ounce bottles aren't enough beer, and cans fully protect the beer from light and oxygen, producing a new level of fresh that you won't find out of a bottle. Cans are also easier to recycle and better for the environment... as an ecologist if you don't believe the brainiacs at Horny Goat.

    Hazy orange pour, orange wheat aroma. Fresh, crispy mouth-feel. Here's a standard citrusy bier. The can is pretty cool, seems to keep the beer quite fresh.

    Pours a hazy wheat yellow with a thinning white head with some lacing. Good carbonation. Aromas of stale wheat or bread with an old orange and lemon citrus. Taste is stale wet wheat with some citrus - not very good.

    This poured from the can a strange yellow color. It looked like orange juice with no head. The aroma was foul with some rotten lemons and corn. A hint of metal as well. The flavor tasted like swill with a hint of synthetic lemon juice and orange juice stirred in there. I don’t think Im feeling horny baby after this one. Overall this was the worst wits I’ve yet to try. Pass!

    This one poured a slightly cloudy golden color with a fluffy white head and decent lacing. It had a grainy aroma and a medium to heavy mouthfeel. It had a slightly sweet malty flavor with some harsh tannic notes. It was satisfactory at best.

    Initially poured a cloudy golden, bright yellow colour, but one the smoke cleared it turned back to a vibrant yellow. Head was large and aromatic. Semi sweet, and mildly wheaty. Mouthfeel was light, and sort of flat to be honest, taste was tolerable but metallicaly. I wouldn't call this a belgian wit, more like an american wheat.

    Good price performer, 24oz can for about the price of a 12oz. I haven't had to many Witbier style beers, but I am a big fan of Wheat beers. This was a good beer overall in my opinion. Had a nice citrus aroma and could also distinguish the coriander spice in it. The appearance was a light yellow with a small head. Almost looked a little weak though. The citrus/spice combination came across well in the flavor also and left a nice after-taste in my mouth. I will defintly be trying more Witbier in the future based off of my overall impression of this beer.

    Witbier from a 24oz can, interesting. Anyway, the aroma is nice and of lemon and citrus with hints of coriander and orange peel with maybe some fruity overtones. The appearance looks like freshly made lemonade and is hazy and a light yellow in color and like sunshine with a small head on top that is bleach white and bubbly and remains. The mouthfeel is crisp and light-bodied with nice spicey complexity with good balance with a crisp and smooth palate. The flavor is nice and spicey and of coriander and lemon with some orange peel with an aftertaste that is a bit watery but nice and refreshing with a spicey finish with maybe some cinnamon and coriander. Overall, this is a nice witbier with nice, spicey complexity which is a bit watery but not too bad, this is a good witbier and very refreshing and smooth; an interesting take on the style and a bit more sour than other examples
