Overall similarity
hopIQ take
(512) Wit if you want classic, approachable wheat beer comfort, Magma Bergamot Wit if you want a citrus twist that surprises.
Both sit at nearly identical strength and bitterness, so this is really about flavor direction. (512)'s version leans into what witbier does best—soft spice and coriander. Magma's bergamot addition pulls you somewhere unexpected, almost tea-like.

(512) Wit
(512) Wit tastes like what a witbier should: creamy mouthfeel, gentle banana and clove from the yeast, a whisper of coriander that doesn't dominate. It's smooth enough that you forget the 5.3% ABV. There's a slight haze that feels intentional, not lazy. This is the beer that lets you relax without thinking too hard.
Magma Bergamot Wit
Magma Bergamot Wit hits different—the bergamot isn't subtle. It reads almost floral on the nose, then brings this bright, slightly perfumed character that cuts through the wheat base. The lower ABV actually helps; it keeps the citrus from feeling hot. It's wittier than (512)'s version, literally and figuratively.
