Shiner Adding Orange Wit Belgian-Style Wheat Ale

Today I have a new bottled wheat ale coming from Shiner Brewery in Shiner, Texas. This is Orange Wit and it will be a Belgian-style wheat ale brewed with coriander and prange peel. The beer will hit 5.4%-AbV and look for Shiner Orange Wit to be packaged in these 12oz bottles. Release details pending.

Label Text Shiner Orange Wit:

“Orange peel and coriander bring a delightfully refreshing twist to the season. This festive Belgian-style Witbier is packed with bright orange flavor, just a hint of spice, and a crisp finish. Perfect no matter how the weather fares – Prost!”
