Pelican Winema Wit

Throw ins: that sort of has off connotations, usually one to believe that they are nothing more than someone’s shit that they are passing on. It seems that it fits in all facets of life with American craft beer finding no refuge.

Winema Wit by Pelican Pub & Brewery was exactly that in a recent transaction: a throw in. I have found these throw ins to be hit or miss in the American craft beer transaction world. Winema Wit is a hit that keeps on coming.

Coriander, pepper, orange, Belgian yeast, wheat, and a touch of the “barn” all take part in creating a solid witbeir with a light mouth feel while a huge effervescence creates a larger presence. Easy to drink with an ABV that allows for a few at a time. Nicely done. Enjoy!

Useless Fact: More than 71 million gallons of water pass over Victoria Falls in Africa every minute.
