First time Ive seen it anywhere, but that closet had it. Nice hazy orange with a nice white head. Real soft yeasty malt and coriander aroma. Flavor is a crisp grassy one. Its got a good blend of orange peel and sugary sweetness. This is a bit strong of a wit, but a damn tastey one. Keeper (164), Milano, Italy
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 26, 2005 Very particular beer; elevating has an alcoholic tenor much that unfortunately it covers excessive fruit notes.
Good.
Birra particolarissima; ha un tenore alcolico molto elevato che purtroppo copre eccessivamente le note fruttate.
Buona. Cornfield (4972), Oak Forest, Illinois, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 23, 2005 Updated: Mar 22, 2007In the world of wheat ales, my preference is a hefeweizen... but I’ll be jiggered if this doesn’t hit the spot. Cloudy amber color with a lofty, thick & creamy white head, this is one of the spiciest wits that I’ve ever stuck my snout in! Bran flakes with lemon, pepper, cloves, and coriander... a real nostril hair tickler. Medium-bodied with a spritzy carbonation, it’s a tonsil tickler, too. The flavor is a light caramel, a hit of yeast, and a heap of the spices noted above. The finish is dry and slightly heated with the higher alcohol content. Very satisfying.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 23, 2005 Bottle. Cloudy orange with a small head. Aromas are caramel, wheat, sticky fruit and soft spices. Flavours are sweet toffeed malts with wheat and spices. Pretty simple but very pleasant. Has a great foaming mouthfeel. goldtwins (4084), Nesconset, New York, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 9, 2005 Poured a hazy yellow color. Malty aroma with some orange and butter. Flavor was sweet, malty, orange and a touch of bitterness on the finish. Indra (2036), Prairie Village, Kansas, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 1, 2005 750ml bottle, 2005 vintage. Tart, citric aroma, plenty of lemon and orange peel along with notes of pear, melon, coriander, banana, clove, wheat malt and a certain floral perfume. Dark golden amber color, not unlike a sunset, with a vigorous, foamy head and sticky lacing. Flavor begins with some light fruity tartness, becoming more citric and spicy leading into the gently dry, bitter finish. The fading impression is that of peppery spices and juicy lemon. Lively, active, quenching mouthfeel with a medium body. Rather bold in character for the style, and this would seem to be the point. vanvenlo (794), Glen Iris, Australia

Nice white head retention, cloudy orangy colour and suds lacing. Flavour has over the top hop spirit, fruit malt, not what I could a imagine is a wheat beer, not that I don’t like it. If tastes of nice fruit mix and an earthiness. Lingering hop fruit and steeliness finish. Blanche ...what ?, but I like it. TBone (6850), Pori, Finland

Copper-orange brown, a bit hazy. Small creamy white head. Parfumic, fruity aroma. Medium bodied. Rounded mouthfeel. Chewy malts, sweety fruityness, also some alcohol/citric flavors. Fruity aftertaste. Very different witbier.
