Overall similarity
hopIQ take
Cape May White if you want a more textured, slightly peppery wit;
Simba Wit if you want lean and clean.
Both sit at nearly identical ABV and IBU, so the real difference is mouthfeel and spice backbone. Cape May feels more traditionally Belgian in its execution—there's actual bite to it. Simba plays it safer, letting the wheat do the talking.

Tasting notes
Cape May White
Cape May White has this distinctive peppery snap that catches you right at the finish. The body is rounder than you'd expect from a 5.2% witbier—there's a subtle creaminess from the wheat that hangs around. Coriander comes through cleaner than the orange; it's not a fruit bomb, which honestly works. This feels like someone who actually studied Belgian witbiers before brewing.
Simba Wit
Simba Wit is straightforward and approachable—wheat-forward, lightly citrusy, minimal friction. The spice is there but subdued, almost polite. It drinks fast and doesn't demand much from you, which isn't a criticism. This is the wit that doesn't argue with a hot day or a casual dinner. Very balanced, zero rough edges.
