This brew was ok…didn’t wave my flag to much. For all the ingredients they used in this, I didn’t seem to taste very much. I prefer other Belgian wits over this one. Not one of my favorites from SA…but decent. Good review.

You’re right, this is more of a weizen glass. The pilsner glasses tend to look more like an upside-down cone, with straight sides.
